F****** Rudiger

 

[HajdukSplit]

Ukraine lost to Malta, it was on neutral ground but still...

 

[NHL Dude 120]

Germany got a late equalizer against Denmark, now personally I think Germany was lucky to score as the Denmark's goalie played the game of their lives.

F****** Rudiger

Did I see right or were their CB's Rudiger and Ginter? Talk about mistakes!

Yeah, Germany's squad is basically a B or C level.

Some start for Wilmots at Ivory Coast, hammered in a friendly by the Dutch and lost an African Cup of Nations qualifier to Guinea at home. Naby Keita scoring the winner

Nigeria lost at home to South Africa

Cameroon who are hosts of the next AFCON are still involved in the qualifying (they qualify automatically) and got an impressive win over Morocco

France with close to my ideal lineup :
Lloris, Sidibé, Varane, Umtiti, Mendy, Kanté, Pogba, Dembélé, Lemar, Mbappé, Giroud.

Problem is Giroud instead of Griezmann, but I'm guessing DD won't ever play without his aerial threat.

England's Harry Kane!!!!

Great passes by Dele and Bertrand.

 

[Evilo]

France's Umtiti !

Too bad for Mendy, was looking strong early. Digne has something to prove.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Trippier is clearly where France is pushing.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Dier misses an open chance from 7 feet out, not the best defending of set pieces either way.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Great pass by Trippier.

He is so talented moving forward.....in his own end....meh.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

England such a soft back side.

 

[Milos Krasic]

Congrats to Papu Gomez on his NT debut for Argentina after a great season with Atalanta!

 

[Evilo]

Ref managed to give a red card in a friendly on a non intentionnal foul

 

[spintheblackcircle]

harsh red, but the PK was the right call.

2 for Kane now.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Stones is bad.

 

[Evilo]

Not sure why Stones is threatning the ref, Mbappé or the world, it was an obvious foul.

 

[Evilo]

Wow, Mbappé on the bar !!!

 

[Evilo]

And for those who said Kanté doesn't bring offense, he picked up the ball 17 meters from the opponent's goal and that almost created a goal.

 

[Evilo]

And Alli doesn't get red-carded for destroying Sidibé's foot/ankle.

Mbappe to Dembele, GOAL !!!!!!!!!

Why do I feel this will become a classic (as much as the other way around)?

Pogba being MUCH better with the front 3 of Dembele/Mbappe/Lemar. More space, more movement, and more passing lanes for Pogba.

Stones has been absurdly bad.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

As has Cahill, Trippier is not strong in his own end and Dier has been poor.

Yeah but City spent £50m on him so he must be awesome. Right?
