Hopefully Spain hang on to this lead and shut the love-in for Mbappe for good

Would mean they can all join the Bellingham or Olmo love in!

[Pliskin]

Mbappe has been bollocks for this entire tournament. 

[StanSP]

Mbappe wtf was that 

[AKCJ]

Crazy how bad Mbappe has been.

[bovril]

Did he just say "unbappe"?

[RowlattsFox]

If you're going to give **** all most of the game you have to score a chance like that.

I don’t think he’ll work that well at Madrid. Vinicius Junior could well be a better player. 

[Trumpet]

Can’t stand Jenas’ Nottingham accent.

 

Thear.

Whear.

[Nalis]

Spain has won the gamesmanship, the react to the ref and theatrics Euros already

This is when you remember why you dislike Spain again. Rodri already set the stall out to go down in a minute or so.

Reckon they'll play him down the middle. Mbappe, that is.

I didn't grow up in the East Midlands so can only really go by my Grandparents' Leicestershire accent. I just assumed Nottingham would be similar. But Jenas' accent is very odd, some of the diphthongs sound East Anglian. 

[StanSP]

Here come the Spanish theatrics. 

[Nalis]

Nice try Yamal, your mate Rodri would have got away with it

The penalty eerier 

[st albans fox]

5 mins is ridiculous 

Thought it would be 6

should be 7+

[DennisNedry]

It's surprising that France have never really built up any pressure on Spain this half.

 

They've seen this last 10/15 minutes out pretty comfortably to be honest.

 

[RowlattsFox]

First half brilliant, second half has been managing the game in a way only the Spanish can. 

[StanSP]

Spain's game management has been quality though. When France have been gaining momentum Spain have just taken the sting out of it by keeping the ball and slowing it down. 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

The mask is clearly affecting Mbappe 

[Muzzy_no7]

France too many athletes and not enough guile and quality. 
 

Spain so good and have one hand on the trophy now, would take a monumental effort from Holland or England to compete. 

[DennisNedry]

I can't see Spain having an difficulty with either Netherlands or England to be honest.

[AKCJ]

It's not even that Spain are that good. It's just that they actually go for it and take the game to their opponent. They're the only "big" team that do that. Even Germany got loads of plaudits but really they only whipped an absolutely shite Scotland team.
