Mentality is definitely the biggest thing, I think Morocco feeds off that underdog energy so well that the pressure actually flips onto France. Lloris is not exacty known for dominating shootouts so I would honestly back Bono to be the difference maker there.
Hard to pick one person but for music it has to be David Bowie. his career just kept mutating in ways nobody elsse really pulled off and he made it look almost effortless.
I thought Egypt's defense would hold up better this time around but Messi just reads the game two steps ahead of everyone else on the pitch. Honestly it is not even about pace anymore, his positioning alne makes it look so simple.
