Welcome into ESPNFC daily, Camerie and LME, what a glorious victory from Morocco, their first

0:07.4

World Cup victory since 1998, goals from Super subs, Sabiri and Abu Klaal, 2-0 against Belgium,

0:15.6

this golden generation of Belgium, your thoughts on what we've just seen, Luis.

0:20.4

Okay, Mari, unbelievable. The Morocco, as you said, such a historic victory,

0:26.3

incredible to see what the ages did. This tournament continues to surprise us, especially from

0:32.3

those 3-4 teams in every group, how after losing in match day one, they just become resilient and

0:38.3

win once again. And Belgium, Camerie, Belgium are like, you know, and saving private Ryan at the very end,

0:44.4

We also had Camerie, Kevin De Bruyne himself, I said it. He said, look, I don't see us winning this

1:40.9

thing. And I'm like, winning this thing, I don't know if you can get out of this thing anymore. And I

1:44.6

was thinking of Matt Damon, by the way, and saving private Ryan on the beach. Oh, just Matt David,

1:49.9

just as this is small known Matt David, it is interesting that Kevin De Bruyne has said that because
