[Football] World Cup - Day Eleven

I'd argue France, Brazil, England and Holland have all looked good.

Of the "big" nations only Belgium and Argentina have really been under par?

Let's not write off Portugal...although I'd be happy to.

Coming up to HT and Denmark are in trouble. Need to be much better in the second half

Funny you say that about The Netherlands. The press here are definitely not sharing that view.

Football has been very defensive and uninspiring. I think the US may even beat NL next round.

The Tunas are putting up a good show - France not too impressive so far - enjoying this!

Isn’t the French team all the reserve players?

Isn’t the French team all the reserve players?

Especially, 'learn some humility' Guendouzi.

 

[Zeberdi]

He’s made about 9 changes to start but I would expect some changes - Deschamps has plenty on the bench.

 

[Zeberdi]

Brilliant - what poor defending France

1:0

 

[KZNSeagull]

Aus 1-0

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Few more goals and France are second

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Love the goal music being Men at Work

 

[Mackenzie]

France are shit

Guendozy is on the pitch. Inevitable France would struggle.

 

[Stat Brother]

Nobody likes to see Shemichael easily beaten...




...oh hang on a sec.

The Portuguese fans generally think the manager is shit, too defensive and wasting the talent available to him. Surprisingly, he doesn't wear a waistcoat.

It’s more to do with who’s not on the pitch!

LIMBS:

 

[Randy McNob]

imagine the furore from the haters if England were losing to Tunisia

 

[Randy McNob]

I still think Mbappe is a little overated. He's got devastating pace but not the style and panache Theirry Henry had

 

[Zeberdi]

Such a shame for Tunisia - just as its confirmed they wont go through whatever happens, France scores

EDIT - VAR - Goal disallowed - at least they go home with something - beaten defending champions - thoroughly deserved.

I have little sympathy really - they played a second string French side which neither of the other teams got
