well French team pretty much as expected. Offensively much better than Italy but defensively not nearly as good. Gonna be an interesting match.

Indeed. Who scores first will probably win imo... especially if Germany scores first I think the french team will lose its mind. It's pretty clear that they are under pressure and even when they were winning by a large margin against Iceland we could see anxiety signs among them. Pogba, for example, was making some unecessary and harsh faults.

But it will be a very interesting match to watch as France is theoretically the last team that can take Germany out.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Really? Wouldn't it be more realistic for France to win 10-0?

Did you not see Germany's penalties the other night?

And you and France fell right for it ;)

Dude, Germany just wanted to show that they're able to win any penalty shootout. Even if they fucking miss 3 times! I bet you also didn't notice how Neuer let a couple of shots through on purpose to not make it obvious.

Sure, it's like they planned on Italy missing 3 as well, right?

It's all random anyway, we know that. Well, except when it comes to England, they lose.

Lol, French supporters ripping off the Icelandic chant.

This chant was a thing among France supporters since 2013-2014, y'know.
It's not an Icelandic thing, it's a common chant.



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

Portugal 0-2 Wales
Germany 1-2 France

Well, at least I hope so, we never took out Germany in an official competition before. Let's hope it'll change.

It originated from a club called motherwell in Scotland years ago.  Lol at casuals arguing over that like they have any idea.  I was at the opening match v France Romania and the French were doing it then long before Iceland fans got publicity for doing it.

You did see Boateng giving that penalty to Italy to force them into the shootout did you? It was wall planned. Basically Germany needed an excuse to have a fun  public penalty training.
