    Up until that last 10-15 minutes, I am wondering is this an Argentinean team. They were so slow and lacking penetration. No bite apart from Alvarez. De Paul reminds me of De Rossi a decent but not exceptional player.

    They actually remind me of Hodgson’s England teams. Structurally poor (random gaps left for teams to exploit) but they try to take risks often in a slow cumbersome manner. Obviously they also have Messi.

    Found it interesting that USA haven’t beaten a European team at the WC since 2002 (Portugal, Group stage).
    Played 12 games against Euro teams since that game.

    It is.

    They have come close through. Injury time equaliser for Portugal in 2014 being the nearest but they were also winning against Wales this time around and had a debatable disallowed goal that would have won it for them against Slovenia in 2010.

    Poland will rue that missed golden chance when the Polish lad shot straight at Lloris! Now France take the lead.

    Does feel like Poland need something soon. If they end up chasing then Mbappe will have a feild day with gaps at the back.

    Poland are an embarrassment. No desire to pass the ball. Its like a hot potato to them. They get into the France half and it's like they want to get rid of it and defend again

    All he said was France can be got at so he might have been talking about a general point for Countries like Brazil, Argentina etc rather than from an English point of view. So not sure why you have to come on here with some bizarre rant!

    Or 2006 against Portugal. That was the worse shootout for England.

    I always remember Chris Waddles penalty against Germany in 1990 unfortunately. In fact I’m pretty sure the ISS is still trying to catch it since it’s often mistaken as an UFO.

    Japan players too often seem to place their penalties. Always looks awful if it is low and the keeper goes the right way.
