Round of 16 - France vs Nigeria (17:00 BST) & Germany vs Algeria (21:00 BST)

[Noob21]

Offside Karim as well

[JD nawrat]

Benzema should make that 1-1 in the offside goal market but nope.

[georginho_juventusygr]

Great act, Benzema. Why not just dive?

[Noob21]

Should've been a goal for Nigeria on the replay, fluff of grass offside not even an inch

[JD nawrat]

OH POGBA!

What a goal that would have been!

[Noob21]

Pogba, well played

[EnterUsernameHere]

Poor JD.

[G-Man11]

Pogba

[JD nawrat]

Poor JD.

So much excitement there

[Klimowicz]

Keeper

[noikeee]

Very nice open, even match so far.

[Noob21]

Moses looks chubs, Musa he's not

[craigcwwe]

Great play there from Pogba, thought he had scored.

[Anti Spiral]

Who does the Nigerian keeper play for? He's class.

[ReggaeBwoy]

Who does the Nigerian keeper play for? He's class.

Plays for Lille.

[JD nawrat]

Enyeama is an FM legend. Used to be able to get him for like £250K from Maccabi Haifa

e: Oh it was Hapoel Tel Aviv but still, he was insanely cheap and good.

[georginho_juventusygr]

Pretty sure Catholics do it too, known an Indian Catholic (yes I know) teacher who did

We don't fast like Muslims do. Fasting is simply reduction of what we eat, i.e., instead of being full from three meals a day, it's only once a day. And it's voluntary.

This. Was always my first buy. Was an excellent penalty taker as well

[JD nawrat]

Valbuena and Pogba are great. Their chemistry is brilliant. Shame Benzema is a lazy arse and doesn't make runs for Pogba there, glad he called Benzema out on his unwillingness to run into the space.

[H.O.V.I]

Giroud slows everything down for France.

[Guest]

Meh, I get that Pogba is very talented but some-times it looks like it's all a bit too easy for him.

[Noob21]

It's the same thing with Muslims, the standard is 4AM~ to 6:30PM~ depending on local times. So not a whole day fast per se and it's only voluntary for those who are not physically able

It's actually weirder in the 20th century and onwards since people gorge on food pretty much after sundown prayers

[Arkas]

So i guess if Costa Rica-Greece was a disgrace to football then this cannot even be called football

[Noob21]

Giroud slows everything down for France.

Does the same thing for Arsenal, but he gets away with it because he keeps possession well

[JD nawrat]

So i guess if Costa Rica-Greece was a disgrace to football then this cannot even be called football

This match has been alright so far. Certainly far more attacking intent from both sides.

[Noob21]

Debuuuuuuuuuuchy

[JD nawrat]

Oh Debuchy /o\

[sean_oc16]

STOP LETTING DEBUCHY SHOOT! He's terrible.

[Arkas]

Seriously? They make more mistakes than in u15 championships,

[ReggaeBwoy]

Matuidi such an underrated player. Quality all round midfielder.

[JD nawrat]

Seriously? They make more mistakes than in u15 championships,

You say this as if the CRC/GRE game wasn't wrought with mistakes.

Some people like me eat lunch during the day. Fasting Muslims can't because lunch is usually around the noon. So in that sense, Muslims do fast the whole day.

[georginho_juventusygr]

Great shot, Obi.

[Noob21]

French girl sighting

[dabam]

So i guess if Costa Rica-Greece was a disgrace to football then this cannot even be called football

Agreed...I'm about to fall asleep.

[JD nawrat]

Really do not rate Benzema. His work rate and concentration are awful. Isn't paying attention so misses the pass then doesn't even burst his arse to get the pass anyway. So lazy.

[Noob21]

Ooooooooooh what a shot by the Turkish bear

Of course the fat Moses is offside

[Noob21]

Giroud is ****ing this up, bring Griezmann on

[Noob21]

Is Enyeama praying?

Why now though? It's still nil-nil

[noikeee]

France not really playing to the same level here as in the previous matches. They're able to create danger with relative ease but the decisions in the final third have been awful. Meanwhile, Nigeria have been able to go down the wings an amazing amount of times, winning loads of corners.

[PaulHartman71]

Debuchy having the game of his life

[av3ry]

Take Giroud off, he's been hopeless. Whats Benzema doing on the wing anyway?

Nigeria should be winning this, dont actually think Emenike was offside. That offside line on TV had him level with Evra.

[tcoleman1]

Was wondering why Benzema was playing LW, imagine being played out of position and seeing Giroud kept central

He is lazy but he's still a brilliant player. Wasted on the left.

Not sure how you can say stuff like this about Benzema and not have a go at Giroud. Why Benzema has been shunted out wide to make room for this guy is beyond me.

[scott MUFC]

Giroud gets picked why? Get Benzema up top and some else on

[gillsminnow]

The idiot who broke the TV :D

[Leppard]

Benzegol to score a hattrick.

[JD nawrat]

Giroud's doing what he's supposed to - lay the ball off to other players and hold the ball up.

[scott MUFC]

Layoffs to who? The top scorer is out wide
