Spain and Costa Rica engaged in a vicious battle in a tight Round of 16 match.
Although Spain easily beat Costa Rica in the first round of the group stage with a big score of 7:0, they encountered a lot of challenges on the way to the round of 16. After a tough battle, Spain finally struggled to advance to the knockout stage, and today's opponent is the powerful Morocco. Facing a new challenge, Spain must face up to its own problems and perform better in order to go farther in the tournament.
In the last game against Japan, Spain dominated possession and Ewalu Morada scored again, making it three goals in this tournament. Although he doesn't start every game, with confidence he is undoubtedly a top striker.
However, Morada was a bit lax after the goal, and failed to break down the opponent's defense despite excellent ball control, which led to the loss of the game. Of course, as the second-placed team, Spain's road to the finish line is relatively smooth, which may be considered a "blessing in disguise".
Morocco showed a lot of fight in the group stage, tearing through opponents' defenses with their speed and counterattacks. Siyaji has been particularly impressive, and was one of the best players in the group stage. He is expected to pose a huge threat to Spain in this match, and Spain will have to be on their guard against him.
The focus of this match will be on the Spanish left side, with Zodi Aiba and Birdie facing the challenge of Ashraf and Siyaji. This is a highly anticipated clash and Berdy is assisted by the experienced Busquets, which is more favorable than Morocco. I predict that after a hard fought battle, Spain will beat Morocco and advance to the last 8.
