Gutless.
Shockingly poor French performance.
Germany haven’t even had to come out of 3rd gear to win.
Most goalies would have been halway towards the deck for that last shot and Benzema would have scored. Neuer bolt upright and made it look easy.

Agreed. He made an earlier save where he stood upright and swatted the ball away too. The amount of keepers that lie down early always baffles me.
Hindsight I know but he has to smash that across the goal surely.
Sadlier reckons Giroud was very poor. He came in after 84 minutes FFS sake.
As mentioned last week, Ecuador were comfortably the best team in that weak group France were in. A horrible set of circumstances conspired to eliminate them and we’ve seen since how utterly shit Switzerland and France have been. That was as comfortable and emphatic a 1-0 as possible. If @chewy louie had any decency he’d acknowledge his fluky bet success, give me an amnesty and allow me to post as “Bandage” again once the World Cup ends
Comfortable from Germany without being outstanding. They controlled most of the game, created a few chances and held onto a lead for 75 odd minutes.
Lacked a midfield option on the bench. Bringing Kramer instead of a Bender or someone might come back to haunt them. Hope they persist with that selection now. Best two centre backs, Lahm in his best position, Khedira and Schweini double pivoting the fuck out of it, Klose making room for attacking midfielders, much better setup.
France did as well as could be expected in the tournament. A developing team. Valbuena and Benzema were good enough tonight and in the tournament. Midfield were flat track bullies though and Griezmann and Giroud were inconsistent. Decent team to watch though.
Come on my beloved Colombians!
I hope to fuck this lives up to the hype.
Shite, not to worry - there is still plenty of time left.
Thigo Silva is an alright sort
Fucks sake. Too easy.

Benzema missed a shitload of chances against the swiss(including a peno), Nigeria and he should have scored today as well. Fuck him.*
*He fucked my topgoalscorer bet.
Colombia currently available at 7-1 to qualify.
Way too fucking easy. Lets just hope it’s a goalfest from here.
goal for brazil
one nil at the moment
Some pace in our side. Guarin absolutely raped Luiz for pace there.
They won’t qualify.
Good value. Betfair seems to over react to goals in WC. Penalties written all over this.
