P2 · What kind of game
set pieces gap

What kind of game?

Morocco's heavy reliance on set pieces creates a distinct tactical contrast against France's open-play threat. While France maintains a superior expected goals profile, Morocco's higher defensive resistance suggests they may look to disrupt the flow and capitalize on dead-ball opportunities.
