If you would like to have as many tabs open as you possibly can during the next 2.5 hours, my colleague Scott Murray is liveblogging Scotland v Brazil here:
Ayyoub Bouaddi will begin today’s match on the bench, but he’s sure to catch your eye if/when he appears. (Not just for his floppy hairstyle!)
In a Morocco team conditioned to play first-time passes, he sets the tone with his instant decisions. Bouaddi is in essence the deepest of the midfield three and he not only plays quickly but often finds a colleague in a more forward position. Strong on the ball, he can intercept from his central position and looks to continue his involvement after playing a pass. Bouaddi can tackle and shield a ball and finds space naturally. With his height, at 6ft 1in, technique and football intelligence, he will not be a Lille player for much longer.
