World Cup: National Team threads #2

[Power Man]

You mean ONE? On a corner?
Yeah they had one chance. France had multiple and hit the post.
Frankly, France has been stepping on Portugal pretty badly.

Relax I specified at the end of the half lol

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Werner scored but he's really not been very good in this game. Doesn't look like he's ever played with his teammates before.

Anyway, finally a goal. Well deserved. About time.

yep .

 

[Power Man]

what happened to Bernardo’s hair lol

 

[Evilo]

Rabiot/Pogba/Kante absolutely amazing.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Sergio Ramos missing 2 penalties in a match lol.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Also Ukraine have now hit the post 3 times this match.

 

[Prntscrn]

Lol Croatia’s goal is on Källström

 

[Power Man]

France can legit repeat in 2022

 

[Savi]

Sergio Ramos missing 2 penalties in a match lol.

You already missed the first, then try a panenka on the 2nd and miss again

yet he never missed for Madrid, sigh

 

[Evilo]

Also Varane/Kimpembe

Sweden completely dominate and deserve to win by quite a margin, but a 2-1 win feels like a loss. A lucky, fluke own goal mean they are ahead of us on goals scored. We need to get a point against France now.

Only making one substition and not playing your best striker when you need a goal is a joke the Swedish temporary coach with Janne out due to Covid.

 

[Power Man]

Also Varane/Kimpembe

f*** can Varane play like that in Madrid

 

[Evilo]

f*** can Varane play like that in Madrid

Yup. And Cristiano still is playing like a little boy against France.

lol let’s not pretend Payet didn’t foul him on purpose in the 2016 Euro final knowing well he was playing injured
Such a coward bitch move by France lol

 

[Evilo]

What?
Payet has never made a defensive play all his life.
Ronaldo has met France 5 times. He has 0 goal, 0 assist, and all were poor games for him (including one injured as you pointed out, and quite ironically in Portugal's only win).

That's just CR7 when he has to face good teams at the international level; Lahm used to have a leash with Cristiano's name on it.

I haven't followed these guys too closely but this Kristoffer Olsson character looked absolutely phenomenal.

Yes, smart player for sure. Good at buying himself time and getting out of tricky situations.

Werner scored but he's really not been very good in this game. Doesn't look like he's ever played with his teammates before.

He pressed well, but like our other forwards wasn't involved enough for most of the match & Timo isn't the dribbler that Sanabry are to drop deep to collect the ball. Koch did nicely deputizing at the 6, but he's no Kimmich...and Ginter on the right is always gunna leave the attack poorly supported; despite his assist.

He is a good player, has some amazing days but can also be a little inconsistent.
