World Cup 2018

Sorry Belgie. Really was pulling for Belgium. Full credit to France, though. They were able to adapt to Belgium's pressure after the first 30 mins and really controlled the mid-field after that. It was unfortunate they were on this side of the bracket.

Belgium played well but France is a damn good team this year. Looks like they might be winning the final.

GoRomeo · 07-10-2018, 04:17 PM

Vive La France!

ohh yeah sorry Phillipe

France deserved the win, but were overwhelming favorites to win Euros '16 and choked. Portugal were not a good team then. I hope England win tomorrow and would have a good chance to beat France.

GO THREE LIONS!

You are down 1, late in the game, you pull SideShowBob, yet you STILL try to lob shots into the box and expect who to put them in the back of the net?

I was watching with some non-fans. When Mbappe "went down" they almost fell out of their chair laughing. But they did learn about "Magic Spray"

The game is not over yet! There will be another match for third place.

Brasil could have beaten France at knee grabbing and rolling around on their backs.

I know my friend . But we Belgians see/saw it otherwise..
This year in this world cup , Belgium had the team to win the world cup with world class players . So it a was a matter of now or never !

Today against France , Belgium played below level . Today France was better , accurate on the ball and their counter attacks were faster .
Belgian middle line was a joke and full of gaps ...
Lukaku touched only 3-4 times the ball...Hazard was fast and pretty good . Defence from France was outstanding while the Belgian defence screwed during 90 min.
Tactical Belgium was nowhere ...

Nonetheless ...Thank you for the support my friend

I don't think it's as dire as all that. I thought I heard y'all had a relatively young team...

Take heart, things could be worse...you could be a dumpster fire like the USMNT.

Lovely video clip, "From Russia with Love"

Spot the Bristol Rovers flag at 1.52 /16.10, the best football team in the world

The Bristol Rovers home Shirt is Blue and White chequered as well

Chappers 71 · 07-11-2018, 01:58 PM

C'mon England

The last time England made it this far in a world cup Croatia wasn't even a country.
Can football finally be coming home?

It's early in the game . But congrats England for the 1-0 !

infinitekidM2C · 07-11-2018, 02:32 PM

Want to see Lingard score! want to see Rashford period. Maguire's stock has risen exponentially

also props to Young, guy's a beast and amazing he converted so well to a left back/wingback

JamesWWIII · 07-11-2018, 02:52 PM

England is halfway home!
