World Cup: R16: France vs. Argentina. 6/30/2018

[Stray Wasp]

Victory for France in the Managerial Dead Weight derby.

 

[Jussi]

That was almost a Preustian display of existentialist football.

 

[Firsov99]

Seven goals in a knockout game. Wow!

 

[Blender]

Great game to kick off the knockout round.

 

[les Habs]

France need to step up against Portugal.

 

[Power Man]

Wow lol

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Mercado probably needs a good right hook to the jaw.

 

[Deficient Mode]

Probably...guy doesnt seem to be a leader on the NT .

How are we supposed to know that

I could see Messi as Argentina's Xavi in 2022.

 

[le_sean]

Sorry your country just surrounds you with bums Messi.

 

[Nalens Oga]

Giroud was quite bad imo.

 

[les Habs]

Lalas is one the dumbest people in the history of of the game.

 

[Prntscrn]

Bunch of morons in Argentina not being able to keep their cool right there at the end. lost about a good 30 sec.

 

[Panteras]

France need to step up against Portugal.

counting out Uruguay already huh

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

What a game. I bet Argentina would love to trade one of their offensive weapons into a couple of international level D's. Can't win anything with such a lousy defense.

 

[Albatros]

France need to step up against Portugal.

Portugal needs to take two steps up to survive that far, Uruguay has been one of the best teams in the tournament so far.

 

[offkilter]

Otamendi is a bonafide ****.

How the **** did Giroud end up booked.

Giroud grabbed the ref when the ref tried to seperate the players.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Giroud was quite bad imo.

He made a lovely pass to Mbappe on his second goal.

 

[le_sean]

Giroud was quite bad imo.

Great at holding the ball and passing. Great on defensive set pieces. Set up that 4th goal perfectly. He’s not much of a finisher though.

 

[Stray Wasp]

Giroud was quite bad imo.

He made that goal for Mbappe capably, to give him his due.

 

[The Hound]

Messi just looks done lol. Really hope this isn’t his last time in an Argentina shirt.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Argentina's 2nd half game plan was...well who the hell knows?

 

[foggyvisor]

France is done

 

[Blender]

Great at holding the ball and passing. Great on defensive set pieces. Set up that 4th goal perfectly. He’s not much of a finisher though.

He's definitely better as a second striker rather than the main guy leading an attack.

 

[NyQuil]

Just like I said, it would be too easy for France and that they would eat up this average and slow Argentinian team. A little scare thanks to a once in a blue moon goal and a deflection but once they started trying, GOODNIGHT.

A little scare right at the end I’ll wager.

 

[NyQuil]

Sorry your country just surrounds you with bums Messi.

I don’t have a lot of sympathy.

He had a top of the box chance which he whiffed on.

He missed a penalty in the first match.

He had the wonder double touch goal but was pretty inconsistent overall I think.
