I wasn't surprised when they folded on a wall of real resistence. They have been doing that since 2014. I had some hope they could pull through. It is what it is. France did win because they were better on a functional level. I'm not a huge soccer fan but i need some spectable, and not fortress warfare between similar teams.
O_o, i don't think it's coming home now... I would give Croatia the Cup . |
You listening too much to Belgium medias about this non-sense wall
France even played better offensive football actually, they have more than the double of shots on target/and blocked than Belgium... You cannot blame them for also preventing the other team to shot on their goal keeper too! Belgium just did not have the offensive to go through.
France is actually one of the most offensive team in this World Cup right now and, arguably, the best game of the World Cup was versus Argentina where both team showed how strong they are in offense.
Croatia will have a lot of fun on Sunday. So far they won almost all of their game on the penalty shots or in extended times. That's will probably not do it this time versus a team that is has good as defending than attacking. I would give France the cup!
