@Herbmer shared:

"Imagine so they never have the mindset for the two team to win only focused on them alone."

@EllaDouala noted:

"They were so sure because they bought the ref 😭🤣🤣🤣 moroccans , as long as Paul biya is a president , y’all aren’t going to see any stars."

@PMustage68564 added:

"Senegal Qembarrased the whole African continent when they cowardly walked out of the game. What a weak way to win the final. All the hate to morocco just shows that they are making big moves and some people can’t have that. Morroco will come back at world cup stronger and better"

@munene_karis said:

"In football scripts even opposing players are typically in on it so I don't think that was the script. In other words it is not possible for the script to fail. The ref also had the chance to forfeit the match when Senegal left the pitch but they were given time and chance to."
