center. right? so coming together under player said, how can game against every to be was the final will make it right. and then i think born yesterday, it was totally focused on the penalties. all the guys that are getting charged, they were a matter of fact one of our play a mis affinity. i knew it was okay. i mean it's just that if you focus you deliver and he just how it's its abilities at the end, i just want to, as is also a bit of mind, we trust in our gym and there is the play and bench while the spectators that they were there where they did good job yesterday they trusting the team and just

the you have to know something is the more can team is call of the family. it's not a team, it's family. maybe we don't have a machine. we don't have ronaldo but we have trusting each other. you think you'll win against spain? we'll get get you through the semi final. definitely we 100 percent. i tell you one thing. when i book my flight, i book it for december, 2nd after the friendly game against chile part i go right. i went back and i changed my flight to december 20th. i'm here to the 20th because i'm going to be on the final part of the final is morocco. and you can count me on that part of the final is morocco today, and the bus resume for all the football has been calling them and the funds are resting in the mall, moroccans, i'm coming to the national carrier has increased this when. ok, let's go to our gas now into christy. i want to start with you looking back. is it

a fluke, that morocco or through to the puerto final is not a fluke. if we look at the way they are played, they totally deserve to be. there isn't a fluke if we look at the journey because let's have a look. they eliminate that belgium, they eliminate in spain. there is no other teens at the moment and the quote, the finance that i really wanted that saw are the biggest, like monaco the out of even the one the performance a well like brazil like fans. the biggest that the ever eliminated the out of that map with all due respect, but not belgium and spain. still, it is a fluke. if we look about football tradition where these are not saying, oh, if you don't belong to football to the show, you shouldn't be that no, but deserving to be in the what the final food it different that being and quote the finance. especially if you have never been there in the 1st ever,

at our big game to each cause the finals only the 4th african theme ever. it's a huge step from being able to do something. and finally doing it for the very 1st time. although if we look at the model, coil avenue, bono academy, mother, we, i'm going about the, the sh does 5, they play in elite european leagues and that level, but seen one think is being able to do other i one thing. another thing is doing for the 1st time. yeah. okay. and do you know theo, story because the oh, now you got a great 3 even to every. well kat match so far, how do you do that? it's difficult. if the 6 out $56.00 so far. yeah, i'm attempting to go the way it gets easier from now on. the biggest test was matched a 3 way. there were 4 matches to at the same time. so we had to leave the stadium and great to the other. okay, so you don't go to all you don't sit there for all the games. it's a causal. yeah,

it's impossible. you can't do that. if i stayed from the 1st minutes, the 90, i can physically get there the ground for you know, the natural good i. while watching so many games, how far do you think morocco are going to get in this tournament? from going to the matches can tell you. they have the loudest fans at the well cup . it's like a 12 man. they are incredible. they get behind the nation. they usually have about 80 percent of the crowd. they've traveled in numbers and i truly believe that they have the passion and the players. yes they, they show the on the pitch. they have the quality, i think based on the good chance can portugal. i'm not saying the favorites, but when they're in the and they dominating and they've got the funds behind them. it's football. yeah. yeah. ok. well the fee for president believes cats are 2022 is shown, the gap is closed between the bigger and smaller nations. jenny and patina also says the tournaments has delivered the best group stage ever at a world cup. matches have been of great, great quality in beautiful stadiums. we knew that already,

however, as well. the public ha ha, who was there was incredible over 51000 on average reco breaking figures on, on tv. or we already have over $2000000000.00 viewers, which is which is really credible to an out 1000000 people in the streets of la and a few $100000.00 every day in the stadiums, altogether, cheering together, supporting their teams, untasted atmosphere, great goals, incredible excitement, surprises, service. small teams beating big teams. so there are no more small teams or nor victims the lever. he's very, very equal for the 1st time as well. a national teams from all countenance going to the knockout face for 1st time in history. this shows that

foot board is really becoming truly good. we simply want to to give some, some joy, some smiles to people all over the world. that's what football is about. that's where the welcome is about. and that's what should happen from now as well. until the end, we've already seen some great action on the field, which finally is a, a, you know, the most important part of what to do. some of the biggest, her stars performing very, very well. but the memory is off. i don't know. the mexican fans are, or the american fans or the saudi fan, sir. ah, not to speak about that. justina, brazil. iranians. every one of the americans who were, who were really cheering their teams that tunisia, i mean, i can, i can just name at the synagogue. i could name them all. probably. now

were each really the competitive, the top competitive phase were of course, the big stars. a big players, big teens, will make the difference on the page. so i hope, and i'm sure you will see a fantastical guzman. this woke up let's look ahead to more of the cut our 2022 quarter finals. now the defending champions, france have been this and i had of their block buster match with england star, striker kilian and bob a was back in training on wednesday after sitting out of the session the day before the man likely to have the job of stopping him on saturday as al bate stadium is england defender kyle walker. as i just said, there we take respect. there is a good play in good form at the minute, but i'm not gonna have all our red carpet freeman time to go in school in. i'm represent macklin. cheer court finally awoke. hope so, stuart, i really, you know,

if we, if we lose, we go home and, you know, he's not gonna stand in my way and hopefully winning, you know, woke up for my, for my country. what do you think had 10 kriti? can england start? and bobby, and france. ok. big stretch thing is that i was a fun spot on. the put full month slumber is one of those. but full months is that you see along the for your walk up and i'm not using the was he had a very easily along the side of the walk up when that is one player that is playing the challenge to put his face on that edition. like i will say model, don't i 96 like oh, mile your 94? my tails 90. redone in 198, but it was absolutely phenomenal. we know that he's from a c name. i was in a level that he's out of any league. if you are going to put only one player was can all play to limit them up. you are not doing the guy

a favor is if somebody will go because he's the 1st time ever ever. that france, england, if played not call stage, no final on them. yeah. and england, if we look at us with a well deserved to be at the final, but after eliminating quite dodge out of money, they had quite uneasy past so that so when they were facing the study and that was the biggest challenge, they feel that they fail because the stuff that will be scattered of the challenge . so it is possible we saw in his walk up, but see that you have a lot to walk on the bus. yeah. and theo, i'm assuming you're supporting england. that course. yeah, i'm english and up until the game. yeah. and just to mention your point about killing them by pe. i think if there's one man to mark him, i trust in the world is called walker. just tied his interview and he's got everything defensive abilities, talking abilities, he's coming back to for much fitness. so he's not been overplayed. a mattress to city. and a team isn't one by one player. of course about pay is one of the best players.

it's not the best in the world right now, but the balance on the qualities around the pitch for england gives me a very positive outlook and makes me think we will win that game. it's difficult, was clearly the best position for frances the wing as rosemont dunbar, and kill him back, a roofless. but i think we have the fool box to cope with new additions like shoot bellingham in midfield. you mentioned the game. i think he's a big boost to our team with experience at such a young age to boost our midfield and bring the best place like john henderson. i'm confident we can get a result. of course, we can write them off. it's going to be a great match, but i'm, i'm, i believe the boys. yeah, i think it will be a great match flow and i'm not really sure steam. they play video friends with for video fencing man, for to free one. those 2 men that in the middle can be sometimes too little to bottom, the team england playing it being very bad, wearing the back. but if be attracting them next france they can break the bottom. yeah. able to ok. yeah, we'll see. all the 1st quarter finals he's croatia up against brazil and brazilian

team were criticized by some for their elaborate goals. celebrations with their $41.00 went over south korea, but this doesn't seem to bother their creation players mobile or to be honestly, everybody can do whatever they want and celebrate. however they want. i have no issues with that, and i don't think it's a disrespectful towards the opponent. of course, there are boundaries for everything. but i think brazilians were born with the songs, the dancing, and i see no issues with that. you got any more prim, illegal i. so now i've got accustomed to very tough physical games in the premier league, and that's something we need to show against brazil. and of course we want to show our technical qualities 1st. we also want to show our physical abilities in every job. i mean every possession with well, that's very important in this game. what is as for the brazilian team, vanessia junior says nobody in their squad will be taking croatia lightly,

especially after they finished runners up at the last world cup. i had to go back to us a couple of different ways that we have seen it before. and this world cup, there are no favorites, croatia reach the final at the 2018 woke up in russia. so there was no easy game. therefore, facing croatia who have looked margaret, a recent balance, your winner makes things especially difficult. but we are aware that we must try to change what has happened in the past few tournaments. which means progressing through the quarter finals to reach the semi finals and taking that one step at a time. there was one distracting moment during the news conference. i had to jump tab on the desk. well then, if, if junior was answering questions, he and everyone in that room found it funny, but is a cat on the desk. a batter? good omen. what do you think? i think for me what do you think you can credo, what are brazil going to be too strong for cro in for the day for those and don't

forget i had one kept during alive. you haven't cut out the. jumped on the table and i, i kinda for them look, but i will show the collective a best a playing so father against saturday and against korea to easy to say yeah. but while it was korea, claudia was that deserving that they like to play football. obviously the another, the level of brazil but, but still not only was better the 1st stuff, they were that football bilateral style that we don't see in brazil as soon as the time, all the 2002 on the new or not believe aldo etc. keep it against creation will be defend, that meets of crecia, more which but all of which caught was huge is among the back over all in the war them. they will not dance these mistakes that we are putting in the background the box. but i feel keep that momentum and clay shop. i may be out of date in the

course of the ones that where the lock in to be that one thing should be allowed for the bus eat on about. do you have a confidence? i saw tita the manager dan singer on the serve. goal with the child is on either the for the formal speech and dance. i saw him or replacing the goalkeeper with the circle. keep up 10 minutes for the end. what shall, what's up, what shall we come from? ok, so you know they are the 2018 finalists. we can't really underestimate croatia. can you? absolutely not, but from that finalist 11, there's only 4 players that played in the most recent match. so it's a very different correlation team. however, they've got lots of new up and coming talent like bonuses, claudio, in that defense, and i think they can learn from the experienced heads, like, of course, lou camacho, which one of the best football is in the world. i still believe that brazil have more what i saw from that croatia, japan game was they didn't have as much fight. and i think brazil this is that

perfect opportunity. even with injuries of gabriel hayes used to have the best squad that played a 2nd team and they still looked incredible. so i would back brazil to win that game. ok, all the usa, canada, and mexico. we'll share the 2026 tournaments, former us congressmen scott taylor, who's president of the caps. our business council joined us earlier. he told us what the next house have learned from this edition on and off the pitch. we're going to be geographically challenged in mexico and united states and in canada. but i'm sure, and i know that there's a lot of liaison with security issues with commercial issues between the 2 countries now. and we just had the mayor of new york city just visited doha, of course, to sort of take the temperature and figure out how he could be better prepared for the world cup. i think that you probably have more folks in the united states watching football than ever before because the, the u. s. team over perform that again. i, myself and my family,

we were there for the, for the us iran game in the u. s. england game as well. busy and it was super exciting and i'm super proud of our men. i think that they, they were, you know, they were out there with determination and grit and dr. and i think that they're very well prepared for the next world cup. that trajectory of growth in football and united states is, is massive. and it's things like these, like this world cup like the spotlight, like the over performance of the u. s. team that it's going to accelerate the growth of the fan base back in the united states. so i'm looking forward to a successful next world cup for us. men's team were joined in the city by argentina fan liter, maria ballon and we'll talk to her shortly. but 1st, let's look at argentina preparing to face and that the lens in the last 8, a huge focus of their hopes is always a little messy. tried to stop in the sales stadium on friday night. is the dodge defender and captain virgil van dyke. well 1st and foremost about one of the best

plays of all time, maybe your messy. ready is so many years out to him and all that been you know, to stand up players are the last decades and that's only respect towards what they are chief and trust. now it's not the case of preparing just for him, the preparing to be ident tina and obviously we know how big of a party is of their success over the years. maria, how, how worried our argentina fans about the dutch team? no, we're. well we're, we're even though it's the car to final and every game is hard to play, but we really trust in our team and the funds that they're hearing got that under crazy of the national team. so let's see what happened on friday. okay, well thank reading so much focus is on lean on massey, but there are other stars on that team aren't there? the should at least, although every time that i'll jin tina comes on comes on in the game. i mean,

not comes on the beach. it's always when that, you know, may see 3 good. the sparkling always, it does happen against mexico. it does happen against paul on that. you would say, wow, that the performance at a spot was great. yes. but because matthew was great and he does up and i'm going to go 3 down, you know, which so good in limiting argentina and until mass city then sold the situation on the other young and confidence. but it was telling about how confident are halogen cam fonts are. sometimes that problem is that they have to confident because it's, i don't all the 20 walk ups not, not going to about 78 that, that always in believe that it will happen. sometimes it is coming against you sort of so much confidence you have and obviously be, depends on that is thought much more than any other big theme of depend on that stuff. brazil depends on the amount of france. my mom, you know, they do depend from best buy,

but if maxine doesn't figure the spark color than the others are always limited yet . so i know it's steven to easy to see for the football analyst the button now more than i have a legion t. now, always wait for what my pseudo 4th. okay, well maria, you've been following argentina since you came for kat tars, so what have you thought about there matches on a great ride? was this after the 1st game? it was like, oh like i want to the a that they want to, they was waiting for the n a, b i right? yes again. so the idea is if all the funds were so sub but, well, we keep thinking we'd keep pushing our team. and then after the 2nd name on the 3rd game that the, the national team started to play will. we see we saw the leaving the team. we were like, ok, we're fine. we do, of course with the routing. of course we like we follow man. see because he's our cup and our leader. if other address or phone in other players in the board and we

are waiting for the money to be ready to play the parts or finance. so yeah, yeah. let's see. let's see the a great games between these teams in the past are you, are you looking forward to this class? i think it's great. we need to put some respect from a dutch name. they've had an incredible run. cody got po is still going for the golden boat. it seems to be a play that people don't speak about enough in terms of the statistics in the area busy. and i think he's going to get a big move soon. is obviously more incredible young talent that had a really good season at p. s. b. i think overall they've got a great defense with virtual vandyke leading it. even with that go keep a situation everyone was complaining about. they found a big man to take that duty and i just think that more well rounded the judge and tina i wasn't convinced by saudi arabia or the australia result, which was one by one goal. and it was like you said leo. messy. i think the netherlands have a good opportunity to cause an upset here and the not spoken about enough, no one saying that they can win the well cup, but they have the balance. oh wow,

that is controversial. what about one man? one man is called the one god. yeah. and you know it's, he's love job. he's one of the times because bondai told me after the last game, i guess he was a make zone. he told me we want to do it for the man, one to one for the big guy. and is so clever. very, very clever the, the biggest fox that around. because back in 2014, when you had the all and job that was all on the tools, a lot of the up the was able to bring them on the semi finals so we can do that. okay, well we'll have to see our, hey, great talk to you guys. thank you. to tank greedy feo and maria for joining me. for this show, there's another rusty to come before the world cup action resumes, but there is no rest for the fan of the teams left. it cuts are 2022, the party atmosphere continues the head of the quarter finals, which start on friday. we'll have more in our next world, have a special at $830.00 g m t to join the fun of moose and raoul pathic. for that
