The Spoofers Guide to the World Cup - Group B - Morocco

We know that not everyone that reads the Buzz pages are football fans.


We know that the summer is probably going to be hell for those that aren't, with the biggest festival of football occurring. The World Cup is the event of 2018, sure to capture social media and everyone's hearts - especially when England lose on penalties in the last 16.
But for those of you that don't like football, but don't want to miss out on the conversations in the pub or in work, here's the BuzzSport Spoofers guide to the World Cup.
We continue our group B look with Morocco.
Have they World Cup pedigree?  Their first appearance in twenty years , but they've never gone past the Last 16. In 1986, they finished top of their group which contained England, but were beaten by West Germany.
Are they any good now?  Any side who prevents the Ivory Coast from qualifying for a World Cup has to be good. Especially when they don't concede a goal in six games.
Who's in their group?  Portugal, Spain and Iran - who we previewed yesterday!.
What names do you have to know? Medhi Benatia is their talisman, as he is turning into at his club Juventus. Going forward, Karim El Ahmadi and Khalid Boutaib are their danger men.
What to say to your mates? 'I'll tell you what lads, if they get out of the group, they're seriously dangerous.
Could they win it? Just like Iran, it would take something special to stop the two Iberian teams from finishing top and second - but they do play each other first, so there's a chance.
