Yeah ok

Best team in the world underdogs 

France ml +200. -1.5 +600

Have you watched them play this year?

Also, have you watched Spain this tournament?

GL

Yes I have.  France 2-0

Mbappe has done nothing with that mask 

Defense and midfield is playing well and they’re  creating chances goals will come this game and next.  Like I said Portugal was the only threat to them and they survived that. It’s easy now. 

@PublicJoe

 Joe - It looks like we capped the exact same game.  GL to us.

@PublicJoe

 Best Team Huh?

Easy now??

ok

cant possibly be the best team in the world when you’d rather field 3rd world immigrants than your own nationals 

I don’t really care about all that just pure soccer talent I pray that a French African gets a start over Griezmann 

If you are going to try and make a joke, at least be funny.  Why would they "rather" field African players?  Maybe because those from only white French ancestry are not good enough?  

Griezmann's Father is German.  His mother Portuguese.  Should he also not play for France?  Shoud he play for Germany?  Le Normand was born in France.  Should he not play for Spain?   Should the majority of Argentina's and Uruguay's team be playing for Italy?    Should Xherdan Shaqiri be playing for Serbia and not for Switzerland? It is one thing to be uneducated and unintelligent.  Many are.  You aren't alone.  You are entitled to be so.  But if you are going to attempt to make jokes, at least be funny.  

Camavinga was born in Angola and moved to France at 2 years old.  Is he not a French National?  Should he play for Angola?  

Thuram was born in Italy.  Should he play for Italy? 

Magnion was born in FRENCH Guiana, to a Haitian mother born and a Guadeloupean father. Became a French citizen at 6 yo. Where should he play?

Kante, MBappe, Tchouaméni, Kolo Muani, Kounde, literally everyone else was born in France.  Is France a third-world country?  What makes you a French National? Being white, having a French last name, and being a direct descendent of Napolean? Got it. 

Does it sadden you?  Pobrecito.      Knowledge is free.

Go back to your century man!

Seems all Euro nations, with the exception of Eastern European nations, are copying the style and personnel of france. Speed on the flanks, shots from just outside the 18 yd box, committed to blocking shots and passes....this includes finding talent for this style that are not raised and trained in France. This is modern football--dominated by technology....and so noone is playing the way they want to play, certainly not old school soccer....

When you play France, you don't get to play your style.

Argentina was the lone exception in 2022. But Argentina is numero 1 in the world of soccer because of their confidence to get results early. The only knick in their armor is that they have lapses and allow late goals--they can't dominate to the end (late goals to S. Afr...Netherlands in the qtr final, 2 late goals to France, late goal to Ecuador...)

So do not expect Spain to dominate like Argentina. ALso, they are looking more and more like France---content to have less opportunites and make the most of them, control possession but only to keep the opposition w/o the ball.

Modern soccer is like this now. VAR....many blocks....frustration....playing out of your comfort zone. Watching France is like watching frustration and anxiety. Not even France plays the way they want to....as teams play their style on them....so look for nada as far as goals. Saying Mbappe will score in open play is not favored by the books.

The only one sadder and dumber than you is the loser who gave you a like. 

I love the days before the internet, when your kind was confined to their own shitty island of stupidity. 

@vaas187

Agreed.

 Well said

The best squad doesn't even reside in Europe.

I reread the comments....some ignorance and misplaced resentments, etc

France has had for centuries it seems, a pipeline to Africa and cultural fascination and coneections, and it has been a two way street. Some call it colonialism, but the the mutual love and respect goes back centuries. To have African players is very French, and part of France. The players, despite being African in heritage, are very much French, becuase this is France, esp if you know Parisiennes......

The style of play that France executes is copied this decade, starting with their head Ciach Deschamps, who as a player won in gritty style, many 1-0 victories, with players dedicated to playing compactly, and winning longballs, gaining turnovers from physicality and length, scoring from speed on the flanks, or at least posing a danger from the flanks. A brilliant coach and player.

Portugal could not get anything going, and this is what they do--get you off your game. It isn't pretty, but they get results, even w/o open play goals. It will take perfect execution from Spain in their limited opportunities, to win in regulation time.

I have no bet on this match. It is frustrating, anxiety riddled football, decided by the officiating or perfect execution, and players are human, not perfect. Spain has few flaws, however, so this will be interesting, to see if they go down as Portugal did.....

no mask today 

France to advance and over 2

You are too kind to just call him a goof.

Sometimes the best team in the world loses
