Default Moroccan Bias

The left media, BBC, really want Morocco to win.
With live reports to Casablanca.
The reporter in Qatar ending his report saying with glee how raucous the Moroccan supporters are and how they will make the atmosphere.

Poor Croatia. Why does no one care about them?

Im sure some people will root either depending on political stance, but most actual football fans see it as - MASSIVE underdogs and complete shock Morocco vs Hardened veterans, and team consistent Croatia.

We just like the underdog story basically, i personally don't care who wins, it's only a 3rd/4th place playoff.

The questions we really should be asking is How much are Lineker and co donating to LGBT charities, and women's rights charities? I mean, they gave us enough lectures on it. Any time they could, they'd make sly comments, yet they seem happy enough to stay in the luxury hotels, watch all the games, be treated like A list celebs, and get paid for it.

The Moroccans have been fatally rioting all over France and a little in Belgium after the France defeat.

I didnt realise Croatia was such a good team?
Surely its a huge surprise they got this far also.
With my little football knowledge I would have thought Croatia beating Brazil was the most shocking result of the entire tournament?

I mean they were in the last World Cup final. And they've been pretty consistent for 20+ years.

Yeah they're a really solid team tbh. A great unit. Them beating Brazil was an upset, but nothing like say Saudi Arabia beating Argentina.

The Media are desperate to not have a European team win this World Cup it's embarrassing.

They were clearly upset when France knocked Morocco out.

That sounds like the number 1 enemy of Twitter users.
