[SestoScudo]

What a shame. I remember in 2002 how Turkey and South Korea produced a awesome match despite it being a match for third place. Its like nobody is even bother trying anymore.

The want to win is hardly noticeable

I wonder if we saw the same game. I judged it decent, given what was at stake, with some pretty actions. And they WERE trying, one side was just better.

The game had its ups and downs.

It was great up to minute 25 or so and then it turned quite boring before and after the half time. Near the end it got a bit better again.

 

[Dennisch]

It was as if we were watching Thursday evening Europa League football, after 2 nights of Champions League.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

90 minutes to go....

 

[PocketZeven]

Is this Croatia better then the team they had in 1998?

Is this Croatia better then the team they had in 1998?

I think it is, if we take the whole team as a whole.

 

[PocketZeven]

I think it is, if we take the whole team as a whole.

Yeah individually I rate the 1998 team much higher though. A lot of those 1998 generation went on to play or played at Barcelona, AC milan, Real madrid etc. But I guess this generation has a better team.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

France to win 2-0 for me, Mbappe to score one and put Lovren on his arse.

Don't they both play on the right side of their teams, though?

 

[MUSC4EVER]

They probably do but they're bound to cross paths at some point, it would be hilarious to see Lovren get roasted after what he said the other day.

 

[zzz_pt]

Yeah, he sounded a bit ridiculous. ^^ But you don't need Mbappé to roast him. Griezmann is capable of doing it too. ^^

Let's see what happens. Several Croatian players have been playing at their peek form during this world cup. Vida for instance, made a flawless game against England.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Thing is though that for Croatia this could be the last opportunity many of the players will get to win it because of some of the players ages.

 

[GTFan24]

WILL SMITH!

 

[MUSC4EVER]

BBC thankfully not showing it! ^

 

[zzz_pt]

WTF, Nicky (who ever he is) then a random women, then Will Smith? And Ronaldinho dancing too kalinka malinka? What?

And I thought that after the opening ceremony this couldn't get more surprisingly weird than Robbie Williams giving the finger.

Only the Russians.

 

[Milouse]

Quite informative 6 minutes video that corrects an often heard misconception about french squad.

Like the worldcup 2014 was the last chance for the last golden generation of the Netherlands...

I really hope a country with only 4 million people will beat the odds!

 

[zzz_pt]

Griezmann dive... and goal.

Ridiculous.

 

[jake2013guy]

Goal for France.

Definite dive from Griezmann.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Mandzukic own goal.

Its been all Croatia....

 

[PzR Slim]

Just watched an awesome stage of the Tour de France where riders in lycra were crashing onto big cobblestones at 50 kph and jumping straight up and getting back on their bikes. I have zero time for footballers feigning injury today!

 

[Touring Mars]

Griezmann dive... and goal.

Ridiculous.

How to ruin a great tournament - cheat to win... absolute disgrace.

 

[zzz_pt]

The VAR seems absolutely useless if it isn't used in a Final to judge dirty tactics to get free kicks as it is used to get penalties.

Absolutely ridiculous.

Exactly No other sport has this kind of theatrics on the highest level! Do something FIFA!

 

[zzz_pt]

Gooooaaaaalllll!!!

 

[jake2013guy]

Ok. Perisic equalises.

 

[GTFan24]

THE DREAM IS STILL ALIVE

 

[Touring Mars]

Yes!!!!! Great goal!!

Stitch that Griezmann you diving git!

 

[PzR Slim]

I said goal to the Mrs as soon as that dropped to him. Great strike!
