Barely seen Greizmann. Might aswell move him centrally and bring on Fekir.
For sure, but I meant when defending on that play.
Mascherano will not finish this match.
ADM almost set that shot out like a FK from open play. Tremendous strike.
He's been shit otherwise but that was special.

Hugo Lloris. Haha.
Once? When he was doubled up on.
Bar the first 10 ropey minutes, Argentina have been the far more impressive side here, IMO. I just don’t get the France hype. They’re hideous to watch.
That's why it's anyone's game because of unpredictable shit like that.
Argentina's individual genius is so vast they could win the World Cup as easily as crashing out in the groups. This is such a weird team.
Pogba is dissapointing
France are too soft mentality wise, my money is on Brazil/Belgium
Messi's decoy run for that goal was beautiful. Calm your tits
Absolute class.
Absolute class.
Twice. Less than Messi.
Argentina has been poor but tbh France wasn't any better.
he's barely lost the ball this half. Unless you talking about where two players tackled him at the end of the half.Pogbas been good despite people thinking the last dribble where he lost the ball defines him.
Shearer said Pogba has been brilliant.
If France takes control in midfield, which they easily can, then they will win this comfortably.
Nope. Only way we sign him is on a free in 2023
Even if Pogba doesn't fit too well in this team, he played great.
Argentina do seem a team with about 20 lives in this tournament compared to everyone else having 10.
Overall general dire player but at crucial moments players keeping them in it with random shots.
Refs also far more leinent on their wild tackles than other teams. Mascherano should've been booked after ten minutes.

Most players I detest are really good. Suarez, Ramos etc. But Mascherano manages to be both incredibly unlikeable and really shite
Have you been watching the game? Missed the first half hour of the game?
"The best goal of the tournament"?
Giroud is a horrible target man. He's losing every ball that comes into him.
Feel sorry for the midfield. If Mbappe isn't sprinting into space they have few options.

Mascherano has to go off. Argentina are fortunate to be going in level, but this guy is determined to feck it up for them.
Nice half.
Agreed, he should've been sent off twice already.
Indeed.
France played the same way throughout the first half. No mixing of things up at all. Going all narrow through the middle. They need to stretch the pitch a bit. Attack from wide. The Argentines seen weak at the back. If France keeps in like this, Argentina will score again and then it might be really hard for France to come back.
It was an amazing goal but not the best we've seen.
I have a deep hatred for Mascherano
He was, lost the ball once or twice silly, but he is bossing it. Best midfielder on the pitch, true box to box
Think he's been quite good personally.
France are really some lazy bastards, even in big games.
Can't believe people are slagging off Pogba, what game are you watching?
I enjoyed that half - very much in the Argie camp at the moment and hope they can pull it off.
Yep exactly. Play like a pub team for second half and then Otamendi will smash in an overhead kick from a corner or something.
(Only worry if Kouroux says that France).
Great first half imo, especially from France but since the 1:1 it's a pretty even game.
Still hope France can win this though.
