OT - World Cup 2018 Thread

Yeah, France is a great team and they played like one today

Solid all around, really great midfield.

2nd best in the tournement

Glad argentina is out. They act like they invented the game. Only complain to the refs. France was great but defensively you can score against them. Argentina didn’t have the firepower and France really did a good job on the counter-attack.

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

That was the best game of this World Cup so far. Mbappe is a beast, France might just win the whole thing. Argentina were just too slow, apart from Di Maria nobody really shined.

They where great but defensively they worry you. I am hoping Portugal can advance to see a rematch of the Euro cup. Ronaldo can’t do it all by himself though against Uruguay

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

Been busy the last few days. What a game this is though at the minute. Kylian M'Bappe has just put France back in front at 3-2 after Argentina had fought back to lead from a goal down.

Hard to root for Fraudgentina...France has already beat Brasil twice in the WC (first when everybody on the Selecao was bought, second with the refs all in France's pocket) so I suppose it could happen again...won't speculate on the "how" this time, though...

Cavani with one of the best movements and goal I have seen in this tournament, awesome!

Tremendous early goal in the game between Uruguay and Portugal. Cavani heads in at the back post from his mate Suarez after the longest one two I've ever seen.

1-0 Uruguay.

I like this Uruguay team but Suarez makes it hard to root for them.

 

[BritPat]

Suarez is just a nightmare to play against. He's so good with his body and uses it in different ways.

I understand. I love him to bits, but I'm biased.

Nope. Not falling for the bait.

Dang, Portugal 25 mins away from getting knocked out

 

[Observer]

Even with Suarez, I like Uruguay a lot- so sharp in their attacking movement and so determined in defense.

Don't cry four-three, Argentina!

Terrific game. 2-1 Uruguay and Portugal are going home....

 

[Observer]

Hats off to Portugal for playing their hearts out. Great game from both teams, a game worthy of a final.

 

[Observer]

Uruguay probably won’t beat France, but it will be a good matchup.

Thank you, Uruguay! Not the biggest fan of Uruguay but Portugal didn't deserve to be where they were. Glad they got exposed and eliminated.

FIFA likely not happy about this one. They'll see Uruguay off in the quarterfinal, I'm sure. Then again, it is kinda their fault. They should've busted out the VAR to help em like they've done twice already. Hindsight is aaaalways 20/20.... Haha

 

[BritPat]

The Quarter Final against France will be one to watch, just hope Cavani is fit.

If there's one team that can keep that French attack in check it's Uruguay.

 

[AzorianPats]

ehhh

Funny how 4 minutes of extra time turned into 6 minutes for absolutely no reason.
