Six fouls in ten minutes. Continue to let them rough France up?

'small' 'tactical' fouls dont really translate into yellows ask Italians in the 90s/2000s

its a legit strategy. as long as those fouls arent done on breaks or close to your own box they are usually used to disrupt the passing pace

Croatia had France on their heels for a second.

Croatia might win

Done deal

There's lots of playtime left but France don't wanna be known as being Final bottlers whatever happens Deschamps needs to resign......should've left after that bottle job in 2016 get Zidane in ASAP

Giroud's had 13 shots off target throughout the whole tournament?

hes been a total bum at finishing. france just too good for anyone to criticize him a ton

Not suprising Croatia dominating, they've the better CM's, France will probably grow in to the game

 

[Falcozer]

Done deal

KGB ready to shoot french players

France have that quality in players to change the game but they haven't really dominated any game at the world cup, you shouldn't be surprised seeing Croatia starting off the better....

Its the way deschamps is playinf. He got both matuidi and kante in there. They are absorbing pressure and trying to use mbappes speed. Griezman is not seeing the ball as a result. And giroud aint gonna do shyt sittin so deep in his own half

All that work for nothing.
