ponsaelius Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Morocco have tried to get the World Cup a few times. It would be a great host country - genuinely mad for footy. Casablanca derby has always been one on my bucket list. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinks the whole world revolves around him and he's the only one that should have any sort of success. Revolting. A horrible narcissist. History has been made and instead of congratulating the winners or consoling your teammates, you fuck off down the tunnel with cameras following you. A 37-year old man doing such shit.

Would be one of the greatest sporting achievements if they somehow won the world cup Reckon there's an argument that them getting into the semi finals is the greatest WC achievement?

You wouldn't have to with Morocco. I've been there in the summer a few times, and it was fine. Many of their cities are quite pleasant in June and July. Casablanca, Tangiers, Rabat, etc. don't often get near 32C in June. Fes and Marrakesh would be the worst of the cities, and even then you are looking at 32C, which is no worse than some World Cups.
