FIFA World CupHaiti's goalkeeper made eight saves and still picked the ball out of his net four times. That single line describes the whole evening: Morocco won 4:2 on a 3.76 xG avalanche, and the 50% Crime Index marks it as routine.
Morocco controlled 69% of the ball. Fifteen of their 22 attempts came from inside the box. Corners piled up 9 to 1. The finishing itself was ordinary — a 1.06 conversion rate — but volume of that size forgives ordinary finishing.
Haiti's reply was surgical by necessity: nine shots, only two of them accurate, both converted. A 2.99 conversion rate out of 0.67 xG makes a scoreline look far closer than the game ever was. The fouls — 18 against Morocco's 10 — tell the truer story of who spent the evening chasing whom.
