Not in his best: Courtois made a mistake, Morocco surprised Belgium 0:2 Israel today

2022-11-27T15:09:00.298Z


Roberto Martínez's team did not play great football again, and unlike the game against Canada, this time they went down defeated.


Does not meet expectations. 

Belgium's golden generation arrived in Qatar knowing this was probably the tournament their last chance to go all the way.

In the first round, the Belgians managed to score a victory over Canada, but today (Sunday) they couldn't find the goal anymore, and went down defeated 2:0 by the talented Morocco.

The one who will remember this game more negatively than anyone else is undoubtedly Thibaut Courtois.

The Belgian goalkeeper, considered by many to be the best goalkeeper in the world at the moment, displayed a very nervous ability, which also cost him in conceding two goals.

Fortunately for him, Hakim Zeiss' first free kick on the verge of the break was disallowed by a different claim by the Moroccan stopper, Romain Saiss, who got ahead of the Belgian defenders.

In the 73rd minute, it was Saiss again who interfered with Courtois, but this time the stopper was not in the clear, and Abdelhamid Sabiri's free ball went into the net of the stunned goalkeeper. 

During the added time, the Moroccans also found the second, at the end of a great bursting attack, at the end of which the substitute Zakariya Abouchalel sent a tremendous ball into the upper net, which sent the African team into celebration.

This victory actually serves all the home teams, except for Belgium.

Those who reached third place in Russia 2018, may find themselves eliminated already in the group stage, if they fail to beat Croatia in the final round.

Even before the opening whistle, a very strange event occurred, when the Moroccan goalkeeper, Yassin Bono, was replaced at the last moment by Munir Mohammadi.

According to the reports, the Sevilla goalkeeper was not feeling well and had to vacate his place.
