Belgium bring so high for so many years, even bizarrely bring #1 for many years despite only ever getting to one semi-final in the past 20 years has just shown how broken they are tbh

Surely VAR is overturning that? Di Maria kicked his leg

GET THE **** IN

How is that a free-kick? Haha

How the **** have Argentina still got 11 men on the field? I wasn't even bothered about who would win, but this ref is either crooked or way out of his depth at this level

Never known a ref so obsessed with blowing his whistle over and over again

As a neutral, sure, but as an Englishman, France is definitely not “just another match”. Even if we don’t have the football history with them, like we do Germany, Argentina or Scotland, France is still England’s #1 rival nation in general and the punchline to all our jokes. Or was when I grew up, hopefully it’s a lot less politically incorrect now. Yeah it’s kind of daft and cheesy if you think about it for more than 5 seconds, but it’s still hard to shake a game vs France means a lot more than a game vs other big footballing nations like Spain or Brazil or Italy or whoever, simply because France is our biggest historical foe.

Game over

There we go

Don’t think we could be any more patient tbh. It’s pass it pointlessly side to side across defence 1,000 times football atm. I think we need to be way less patient and actually take some risks.

What high press? Senegal are just sitting their own half, barely moving for most of it. They’re not pressing us particularly. Our players just have no attacking movement themselves

The offside was iffy but it was never a pen anyway, so right decision to overturn it, even if for the wrong reason.

Looked like a dive, VAR should overturn it

He wasn’t exactly bad for us either. He was clearly talented, he just wasn’t as good as Vardy so couldn’t get in the side ahead of him, no shame in that. You could always tell Kramaric was a good player who would be a success elsewhere though.
