(R16) France 1-0 Belgium - Monday 1st July, 2024


Recommended Posts

It's half-time and there was some good defending by Belgium in that half, which limited France's chances. Although both teams had chances, there weren't many. They have kind of cancelled each other out, as they are both closely matched sides.

Have garlic sales gone up today in Dusseldorf @Tommy?:ph34r:

Probably. xD Saw tons of Belgians in the city earlier today.

 

Anyway, pretty disappointed with Belgium. France looked far from unbeatable, but Belgium just played too passive for most of the game. 

 

Pretty meh game. Not worth of such a beautiful stadium. :ph34r:

2 own goals. 1 penalty. 0 goals from open play. Into the quarter finals.

A final between the 2 favourites, France & England, will surely be a great watch.

It's a crime really that Spain vs Germany is a quarter final. Guarantees one of the two sides that both look like contenders and aren't horrendous to watch will be eliminated before the semi finals.

France will probably play Portugal in the quarter-finals. That will probably be another very tactical and cautious match, but I hope the Portuguese go far at these Euros.

If ever you wanted to see a team more lucky than England this is it. France may have applied pressure more than Belgium but their finishing was poor to almost non-existent too. The fact that it took an OG to win this says so much about how gifted this team looks on paper and how much they've underperformed.
