Varane has been incredible in that backline for France.
Day 25: France vs. Belgium SF
- Thread starter oneniltothearsenal
- Start date
defensively, he's been great. Very rare to see him cover lot of ground
Excellent time wasting tactics on display by France.
Yes!
Well this game went exactly as expected. France playing much more mature.
Not a fan of the attitude of Griezmann and Mbappé.
Continuing that trend from last season
France in the final.
Belgium have been atrocious, such a poor team.
And that's that.
Hazard has shown up today. De Bruyne a huge pile of crap.
Well done France!
Exceptional team, they deserve to win the WC.

Martinez shit the bed this game. Fellaini should never have started, but once he did, you have to keep him on at the end to lump the ball to him.
They had him on the left and didn't really play the diagonal ball too much. So stupid.

Idiot finishing
Professional performance from France. Solid defensively. Mbappe & Varane were superb. Really impressed by Pogba too, kept it simple & defensively he was focused which you don't always associate with him. Mature performance all round.
France through to the finals.
Yes he has
France walked in final on this wc. They didn't gave any chance to any team. So powerful team. Clear favourite against england or croatia
Right result for me. Belgium peaked v Brazil.
What sort of murderous celebration is that?
Pfft. Should have been Japan.
On est en finale @JPRouve Congrats bro. Enjoy it
@JPRouve Congrats bro. Enjoy itThis France team are definitely beatable. Might be a game of set pieces.
Steady on old boy, France probably are the best team in the tournament so it's no real shame in losing to them.
France just have more depth to their gameplay. Belgium were useless in chasing that match despite not a terrible performance.
They seriously need to ban keeping the ball in the corner. It's a scumbag move.
Well, that was routine.
Can't see France losing the WC. The Euros was a slip, they won't get sucker-punched twice.

Very professional, disciplined team performance by France.
France are so boring to watch.
Really hope Croatia/England bring their A game to the final on Sunday.
Be ridiculous if a team wins the cup without getting out of the second gear all tournament

I think England could have beaten Belgium but I really worry for them Vs France tbh. Assuming they win tmw obviously.
Their time wasting has been very good, have to say.
As bad Deschamps is, Martinez and Fellaini as WC winners would have been a travesty.
Now, come on, England, let's set up that tasty final.

Easy for France
Goodbye Belgium. Thanks for coming
Deschamps teeth look ruined as feck
Hard luck on Belgium but ultimately they were pretty poor in the final third. Hazard and KDB played well but really needed to create more to break down a stubborn France side. Lukaku basically had nothing to go on - some nice flicks were the extent his involvement. Chadli and some others really not good enough for me.
Great game from France and solid performance.

Deserved.
This World Cup as not gone to plan. feck Belgium .
Players like Chadli, De Bruyne, Alderweireld were absolutely shite today. Lukaku invisible. Hazard not on the ball enough but when he was it was painfully obvious they should’ve got it to him more.
Typical Belgium, well deserved from France.

This young team is going to out-shithouse South Americans and Italians in the future.
Well done France. Belgium just never really looked like coming back in the second half.
That was so disappointing. Whoever wins tomorrow night is not going to beat France. I really wanted a new team to win it.
