I can't see Croatia beating this team. Who is going to score for them? Deflected shots don't happen every game. I guess it would be a great penalties.
Leo needs to sit down. Nobody cares what he thinks. I like how feisty this game was. It felt like an old school world cup game, aside from the horrible reffing. Lionel Messi had words for Louis van Gaal and the Netherlands staff after the match 😮 pic.twitter.com/Wq71WxYWnV— ESPN FC (@ESPNFC) December 9, 2022
He celebrated right in front of Van Gaal and the Netherlands dug out. I hope we get more games like this, lol.
What a mouth watering final Portugal-Argentina would be. This Argentina team must not win this thing.....lol
"Ronaldo's ego is incredible. Then they ask why everyone likes Messi. He doesn't have these attitudes." Also Messi: - calls a Dutch player out in post-match on TV "What are you looking at stupid?" - confronts Van Gaal and his staff at his bench - openly criticizes referee post-match saying FIFA needs to pick better referees (I agree Leo, they should pick a referee that gives yellows for slapping a ball with your hand to everyone)
I feel really bad for the Dutch. That is the most crushing loss of the tournament. Nobody deserves to lose to a team like that.
Reddit posters say that by the rulebook that wasn’t a yellow because it didn’t interfere attacking play. I am not defending Messi by the way. Just want to know everyone’s opinion.
To be fair the first 75 minutes Netherlands were truly awful. Fair play to come back but most of the game they were underwhelming.
So.... who would you rather see win now? Out of all that are left, if it's not possible to see a Morocco v Croatia final, I would be least disappointed if France win it again.
I just want which ever team stands a chance at beating Argentina in the final. Whoever plays better out of England & France NEEDS to go through.
I couldn't stand an England v Argentina final, I probably wouldn't even watch Croatia first, if not.. vive la France. Mbappe 2 world cups at 23 yrs old would be insane
