GWT: World Cup - Round of 16 - France v. Poland

[Jussi]

Lewa to miss the PK again?

Yes. Or not?

 

[TMLeafer]

Redo

 

[NyQuil]

That’s such a dumb approach.

 

[koyvoo]

That stupid Bruno Fernandes hop is so annoying

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Stupid Lewa good call tho

 

[Savant]

Remember when Lewandowski was automatic from the spot?

Lloris way off line but didn’t matter. Would have saved anyway. Awful PK

 

[Gecklund]

If the score is 1-0 no way in hell they are calling it.

But like it’s a clear PK

 

[Jussi]

Now he scores. Still no clean sheets for France.

 

[Juve]

Lewandowski, please retire. Super Overrated.

 

[NyQuil]

I’m not a fan of allowing those kinds of pauses.

 

[Spring in Fialta]

It's so awful. It should be a straight shot, period.

 

[NyQuil]

It's so awful. It should be a straight shot, period.

Well, or if they pause the goalie can come off their line like on the first attempt.

 

[Brunkmeister]

But like it’s a clear PK

It is but you and i know they wouldn’t have the guts to call it against a big nation. Now the score was 3-0 and it didn’t matter anyway.

 

[Karterthadon]

Imagine the meltdowns if this whole redo thing happens at 1-0.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Lewandowski, please retire. Super Overrated.

I can't wait for the eventual Lewa and Lukaku charity game to end in a nil nil draw.

 

[Evilo]

Meltdown is here : I bet on a 3-0 score. x9 loss because of this pen and redo.

Just beat England and the WC has been won for all neutrals.

 

[Evilo]

Oh I'm happy France won. But it feels pretty sour that the VAR called on that handball and then that at 98, ref feels like he needs to do a pen retake.

 

[Incognito]

Stutter stepping on a penalty kick is lame as hell. And Lewandowski did it twice. It's pretty embarrassing if you need to rely on that to score.

 

[Gecklund]

It is but you and i know they wouldn’t have the guts to call it against a big nation. Now the score was 3-0 and it didn’t matter anyway.

I mean I think it would have been worse if they didn’t call it especially at 1-0.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Most players eventually get scouted well by keepers. See: Jorginho

I call it Twinkle Toes

 

[Karterthadon]

Mbappé's finishing is R9 like. He'll never be the dribbler or the 1v1 player that R9 was but he's definetely right there with him as a finisher.

 

[Evilo]

Mbappe is a great underrated dribbler. And he'll beat anyone 1 on 1.

 

[Evilo]

In my FM save, France meets England in the QF. Obviously England wins because it's FM and anything british is highly overrated (not saying it can't happen, but it will happen 9/10 in FM).
Much more hilarious is that the following teams are through to the semis : England, Morocco, Germany and Wales.
England wins, Germany finishes 2nd and Wales 3rd.

Well done FM.
