World Cup 2018 Round of 16

Mbappe Is frighteningly good.
Crafty £250m bid

Messi as a lone striker and the slowest defense in the tournament. Genius management.

Then again, France have Pogba...

He’s looked very good so far. Pogba that is!

 

[Baleforce]

That’s what they needed, well hit, but it’s a long way out, Hugo should perhaps do better, that’s traveled 30 yards.

 

[JerusalemMan]

Heck of a strike. On the replay, you could see the defender shielded it from Lloris' view initially too.

no keeper was going to save that

but where the hell were the defenders or midfield to close Di Maria down ? It was just an invite to pick a spot and shoot !

 

[Seedy Ron]

France have looked far better than the Argies.

 

[Baleforce]

France have looked far better than the Argies.

True, but they’ve not threatened the goal directly.

 

[Jordinho]

Fazio on to deal with Mbappe. A red seemed inevitable for their starting CBs.

 

[Baleforce]

That’s genius from Messi, intentionally using Macado like that

 

[JerusalemMan]

Well well!

 

[Baleforce]

2-1 up, half an hour to go, this could be an Argentinian dark arts masterclass, I’m loving it.

 

[JerusalemMan]

Lucky boy Fazio, that should have been the equaliser.

 

[JerusalemMan]

WHAT a goal!!
Even better on the replay - that is such a gorgeous finish

 

[Baleforce]

What a goal, from the man who fudged up for the Argentina second

 

[ShipOfTheseus]

Great telly, this.

the french'll get one back, argies need another to be safe

 

[indospurs]

hahaha

 

[elyid]

What a strike 2-2

Predict an Argie red card at some point.

 

[Rorschach]

Great match.

 

[Baleforce]

Great match.

Some terrible mistake ridden football, but yeah, you can’t take your eyes off of it.
