Spanish youth in power

With Pedri and Gavi in ​​the middle, as well as Ferran Torres and Ansu Fati up front, La Roja's average age is one of the lowest in the competition. 

Surrounded by veterans like Sergio Busquets, Koke, Alvaro Morata, Dani Carvajal or even Jordi Alba, the Spanish nuggets can surprise the whole world in this competition.

But as far as the result is concerned, Luis Enrique's squad will have to put more rhythm into the possession phases and the combinations. 

Without the ball, the pressing must also be improved, as evidenced by the totally disjointed end of the match against the Japanese (1-2).

Manhandled by the Samurai Blue (subsequently eliminated by Croatia, on penalties in the round of 16), the Spaniards can't really roll their wheels before facing their southern neighbors.

The Atlas Lions set themselves no limits

Euphoric after their qualification in the round of 16, the Moroccans must come back down to earth to hope to bring down Spain and its many individuals.

Undefeated in the group stage (2 wins and 1 draw), when they faced Belgium (2nd in the FIFA rankings), Croatia (Reigning World Vice-Champion) and Canada, the Lions of 'Atlas can beat anyone.

What's more on a knockout match.

With only 1 goal conceded, the Moroccan defense showed its solidity.

The side of PSG Hakimi and that of Bayern Munich Noussair Mazraoui are clearly no strangers to this performance.

In goal, Bono does the job, sometimes with a bit of success. 

For its first qualification in the round of 16 of the World Cup since 1986, moreover as group leader, Morocco hopes to please its supporters.

Anyway, no doubt they are already proud of their representatives.

The winner of this 8th final will be opposed to that of Portugal - Switzerland, which will be played this Tuesday, December 6 at 8 p.m.
