Taking Foden off but not Bellingham seems a bit mental. Bellingham is on a yellow, and could have had another for kicking the ball away. I know he can nick a goal, but so can quite a few players in the team.

If the ref tells VAR that he saw no contact then they basically have advise him to have a look at it, and once he does, what else is he going to do? I think the fact that it was somewhat studs first made his decision for him.

They created more than Spain.

They had the two headers that should have been scored, and the chances for Mbappe and Hernandez.

A bit like the Germany game really. France have had plenty of chances to win but haven't taken them.

Kante still France's best midfielder.

Laporte really wants his country to get to the final.

What a miss.

If we were to somehow scrape past Netherlands I would prefer to play Spain in the final than France, personally. France do everything we do but better, whereas Spain look like they can be got at on the counter.

Trossard is pretty good referee tbf.

You're the only one sounding insecure tbh mate.

I fully expect for us to be eliminated today. The idea that we're just going to click and magic up an identity and way of playing from a few days training is pure fantasy. The only real hope of progression is that maybe we keep it tight and some moments of individual brilliance save us.

You don't need to hate your neighbours to think that inviting them to come and live with you is a bad idea though. There is no historical precedent for a native people being made minorities in their own homeland and it not resulting in war, oppression, slavery or genocide. Sorry to go so...

I think the issue is that everyone sees him as a #10 than can play wide, when really he is a wide player that can play #10. His dribbling and close control is amazing at times, but his vision and especially his decision-making is not on the same level. He did not link well with Kane at all for...

Did Ronaldo not take a little backwards step then?

Mbappe off?

Imagine if a 20 year old put the same performances in that Ronaldo has been. He wouldn't be near the starting XI again.

France nearly scored another OG.

Can't believe Bruno Fernandes was allowed to take that free kick.
