@humanharshad How do you expand collapsed sidebar here?

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

@BeGriffis Do these major companies use Cameras/OCR/AI for data collection or is it still human based?

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

@Mawhoub2 Social media has massively amplified conspiratorial thinking, fueling hate at scale beyond control.

But officials, staff, players and journalists choose to give these narratives legitimacy. That part is controllable.

Any on-duty figure doing so should face immediate sanctions.

@Mawhoub2 Morabit’s reaction after his goal had a backstory…
Just before, he and Lamlioui had a 2-on-1. Lamlioui refused to pass while Morabit was wide open. Seconds later, Morabit scores a screamer but he’s still fuming. Teammates had to calm him down. Drama queen 😅

From Hakim Ziyech’s return, to a team built on the back of a stalwart defence, and why coach Walid Regragui is heralded as the Moroccan Guardiola, this is the story of Morocco’s emergence after 36 years in the dark. 🇲🇦

« Le football du futur, c’est un mélange entre la technique africaine et la discipline des européens ». Very inspiring words from @WalidRegraguiof. Congratulations to @EnMaroc, congratulations to us. The revolution is on 💪🏼

World Cup 2022: 1st Half vs 2nd Half

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

In @WalidRegraguiof we trust, and in data we should trust, Part 3. Hakim Ziyech showed exactly this in his appearances for @EnMaroc against Croatia and Belgium. #Morocco #WorldCup2022

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

We tend to forget it because we haven't seen him much lately, but Ziyech is definitely Morocco's star in off.. A true wizard in creating chances with creative & accurate passes/crosses. His major pressing ability will benefit for our def. also. A great player to have in any team.

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

In @WalidRegraguiof we trust, and in data we should trust, Part 2. @ZAboukhlal showed exactly this in his appearance for @EnMaroc against Belgium. #Morocco #WorldCup2022

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

Not your typical Moroccan winger (not a risk taker in dribbling/passing). With @ZAboukhlal on the pitch, you almost get a second striker. Among the called-up wingers, he is by far the best at going into the box and scoring goals.

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

In @WalidRegraguiof we trust, and in data we should trust, Part 1. @As10Sabiri showed exactly this in his appearances for @EnMaroc against Croatia and Belgium. #Morocco #WorldCup2022

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

It seems that @As10Sabiri's only purpose when on the pitch is to score goals (and often from a distance). We shouldn't expect much else from him except a decent defensive contribution.

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

Same goes for our DMFs. Amrabat seems like the safer option, less risky and cleaner passing, better ball carrying and less losses, better at cutting passes. Jabrane is more of a ball/man chaser, better in aerial duels, more tackles and riskier passing yielding a higher xA.

[THREAD] @WalidRegraguiof made his choices and the @EnMaroc squad for #WorldCup2022 is out. In this thread, we will outline each of the 26 players profile and stats. #FIFAWorldCup

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

Opposed styles for the 2 only CMFs in the list. When holding the ball, Ounahi can be precious with his involvement in build-up and his passing ability/creativity. Amallah is more down to earth and can be more efficient in both decisive areas (defense and offense).

[Botolyst @Botolyst]

@younesy65671738 CMs are coming next!
