Morocco coach Walid Regragui has warned his players not to let Spain bore them to tears.
Regragui, who spent two years in La Liga with Racing Santander during his playing career, reckons Luis Enrique’s men dominate possession so much that the monotony of chasing the ball can prove fatal. And he has told his team to take their inspiration from how Japan came back to beat one of the World Cup favourites despite having just 17 per cent of the ball.
Regragui said: “Spain have had an average of 70 per cent possession at this World Cup. That can be boring for the spectators and also boring for the other team. Maybe FIFA should start giving points for the amount of ball possession a team has.
