Azeem Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 He had eternity to line that up. This match is so much fun. Deschamps’ team sitting too deep, Sampaoli’s team pressing too high. Baffling tactics but a fun fun game
Machado Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Literally no one saw that coming. When you have talent around moments like that can happen.

bozziovai Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 half time --- cameramen looking for pretty girls now ...................... all in all, balanced game.
Berserker Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Sampaoli should defo make a change, this "false 9" shit is not working at all.
Inverted Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 If France don’t win this considering the shambolic situation with Argentina, and the clear gulf in quality, and how perfectly the game started for them, they should sack Deschamps instantly.
Carnivore Chris Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Yeah, Argentina should bring on a striker and play Messi behind him.

As great as Messi is, he can't pass to himself.
carefreeluke Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Pogba with all the time in the world on the ball, playing against a team that has been playing high up a lot of the first half. No wonder he’s looked good. Kante should do better on that Di Maria goal as well.

There really isn't. Only the midfield is superior. Everywhere else Argentina more than match them.
El Profesor Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 5 minutes ago, Berserker said: Sampaoli should defo make a change, this "false 9" shit is not working at all. Agree. At times you crossed the ball to France area and there was noone there. Higuaín for Pavón would make sense. France, on the other hand, has no need for a target man. They give the ball to Argentina and explore the counters and in that scenario, Dembélé would be better suited than Giroud.
Guest Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Can I just mention that Griezmann has been utterly useless in this tournament so far? Been anonymous in these first 4 games bar his 2 pens.

No penalty, mate. Griezmann touches the ball first. France look more solid. Argentina looked toothless until Di Maria's goal. Mbappé man of the match so far, for me.

Exactly, there is no point playing him as a false 9 when he has no service and it only works coming deep if you have players to play those trademark through balls to. Higuain would be an option. He misses chances but he also scores them, Di Maria is largely poor for them but can produce moments and so can Higuain. It's not like the other options do any better in their general performances and offer less overall. France looked class just after scoring their goal, but it's been more even again towards the end of that half. Mbappe is scary and he has been the main threat for either side. This lad, as we've been saying for 18 months, looks set to be the next great if everything goes smoothly for him in his career.
Administrator Stan Posted June 30, 2018 Author Administrator Posted June 30, 2018 GOAL ARGENTINA!! messi's shot deflected in off Mercado!
Machado Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 LOL ahahahah. Brilliant if Argentina go through. France should be way better than they are.

Giroud's positioning is good too. but sadly, france in the first half is only good at counters, not really good in setting up play ....
Administrator Stan Posted June 30, 2018 Author Administrator Posted June 30, 2018 Banega and Mascherano missing the next match.
Bluewolf Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Very fortunate deflection... Argentina have upped their game since going the goal down and France have not really threatened since..
