Can you even imagine England ever getting to the semifinals? I can’t.

On that showing from France I think Argentina will win it. Morocco are a good striker away from being in a world cup final

Well I agree with that about Messi, but I don't want the argies to win it, I don't want France to win it , can we void it ?

Ridiculous period for them.
Thought he was pretty good in flashes - had a hand in both goals - but his unwillingness to defend can be exploited.

Guess I'll have to go with the Argies for the final.
Few reasons:
1. I guess Messi deserves to have a WC winners medal after his career.
2. France won it last time.
3. We'd have a tournament where the only team the winners lost to during it was Saudi Arabia.

Really needs a third iteration as it works so well.
How about execution,execution, execution?

Or maybe I could have just gone for a "great" at the front of that.

Bit weird singing about a war you lost but whatever floats your boat I suppose. Couple of them need to have a think about which country they earn their wages in.

I found the game last night pretty frustrating, but France were impressive. They weathered everything that Morocco threw at them, and were patient and confident to grab two goals at the right times to set Morocco back.
Morocco were full of ingenuity and drive in midfield, and down the right with Hakimi and Ziyech they were full of interchanges and creativity. Just a shame they seem to lack a dynamic striker who can poach and draw defenders in. Their number 9 who came on was shocking.
Also, and I hope the BBC don’t bring me up on charges of hate speech, but I thought Mbappe was poor and not only stick the boot in on their keeper, but rolled around way too much (whilst glancing at the ref).
Morocco were also very physical, and really clattered some of the French players, but that was obviously to bully them a bit.
Interesting game, entertaining, but quite frustrating when you want the underdog to win.

Mullers record is amazing
Ronaldo also stopped playing for Brazil at 30 .. players like christiano ronaldo and Messi have had serious longevity in their international careers 196 games and 171 games respectively

I was around 17 at the time, so things are a little hazy.
The longevity is part of the appeal for me!
