The forwards couldn't find themselves, they were poor too, the defense became unbalanced when Saliba left, f*cking quagmire.
Spain had rythm, envy, was so well organised, everything France didn't have. What a waste.

The game played out pretty much exactly as I expected, with Spain dominating possession, which makes it very hard to get scoring opportunities against them. But still, I thought France would create a few more chances than they did in this game. It was a top performance by Spain.

And thank God, no ****** ref/VAR decisions!!!

France midfielders were playing very bad today. They didn’t supply ball to Mbappe.

Deserved win for an impressive Spain team

OMG! Poor France! I thought they would wipe the floor with Spain. Feel bad for France, but I am delighted with the result. Go underdogs!

But for a poor catch by the Belgium goalkeeper it might have they who kicked France's but. So overrated

To be fair, Spain didn't play as well against Belgium, and France didn't play as bad before.

Sorry Joan of Arc, I'll be on the english side tonight!

I have empathy and sympathy for a lot of people of a lot of nationalities these days. Gonna root for the English.

(I have to add this is a joke, for the less endowed of us)

I must admit our norman colony went a bit sideways.

One of funniest comedy series ever made. Really plays on the uk class system prejudices. That and Dad’s Army.

For those of you who like to gamble, I'd like to remind you that Harry Kane didn't score in the last game, and that being the absolute beast of a 9 that he is, he rarely doesn't score two games in a row.

 

[OldTimer]

Am still betting for England to win the game. Probably 1-0, by Harry Kane. Messi will be following Mbappe, no score.

Might be 2-0, added by Bellingham. It will be a huge victory for England. Let’s see.

 

[Crook]

Come on England. FIFA already upset they won't get their marketing money dream Mbappe vs Messi final, so let's take Messi out too! (Also I am English) xx

HERE WE GO !!!

England again find a way to lose.

Talk is cheap.
Vamos Argentina! Vamos!

England again find a way to lose.

We were looking really good until we scored, then it was only going to finish one way.

Argentina in - England out

England scored and basically stopped playing, they didn't even defend aggressively.
So there was Messi distributing laser precision balls in front of the still english defense. And he got 2 assists.
