Outside of Mbappé, who do you trust to take a PK on that squad?
Yeah I wanted Portugal. France is a defensive juggernaut. Yamal and Nico are less useful against a low block, plus I don't trust Navas against Theo, Mbappe or Barcola.All of them it seems. I knew Theo F. was good (in Milan he is often 2nd choice taker after Giroud), but all French kicks were quality.
In all likelyhood, it's not going to be an attractive match, but France has a better chance against Spain (especially with their suspensions) than Portugal would have.
It's crazy to see Ronaldo not even fast enough to run past anyone. I know he was offside but 10 years ago if he gets the ball right there he's GONE.
Barcola most dangerous french player in 15 minutes. Again.
Anyway we have the better goalie, but the worst shooters.
I'm pessimistic.
I want to see France go all the way and win this without scoring a goal in open play. Let’s go win penalty shots against Spain and beat England 1-0 with an own goal!
Martinez cost us. This game was right there for the taking but we played with 10 men up front, even someone like Jota would have made a significant difference.
f*** off.
Ronaldo shanking that tap-in…..take yourself out back buddy…..
By far the worst player in the pitch. Amateur hour.This is on Roberto Martinez. It’s obvious Ronaldo should not be a starter but he’s reluctant to bench him cost Portugal
It gets chilly in Hamburg at night, even in the summerWhy are some French players wearing winter coats?
Nice things in this tournament? Where?France aren't going to quit until they destroy all the nice things this tourney right?
Me too tbh. Great penalties. You can see that DD learnt his lesson about pens being luck. They worked hard on them.Hmm...all you shooters did great. I was surprised with the quality of their shots, how many of them usually get to shoot PKs regularly, probably not many.
AgreedMe too tbh. Great penalties. You can see that DD learnt his lesson about pens being luck. They worked hard on them.
Ronaldo needs to retire and Martinez needs to be fired. Disgraceful tournament with maybe the best Portugal squad ever.
