Thought maybe id see if tix available on the fifa site for this game in toronto. 

 

 

Spat my tea out.

No sure why, but I quite fancy Senegal to get something tonight.

They were saying Iran V New Zealand was match of the tournament so far. I think France V Senegal may take that crown tonight. 

Cue a drab 0-0 draw.

Wonder how many times this gets played later

 

[Jaspa]

Should be a good game tonight, much like the Brasil v Morocco tie earlier in the round in calibre.

 

I expect France to be the main team of this tournament, especially if they win their group. Ridiculous depth, lucky with the way the tournament has fallen in place and have picked an ideal base for it all. They won't have to play in much heat or altitude. Senegal, as shadow Champions of Africa, good team and could be fired up after the AFCON palava.

That France line up looks exciting!

[FoxesWalk]

Should be a great game this. Still think one of France’s biggest weakness is the size of the ego of certain players. If they can keep their dressing room harmonious, their depth and quality is nuts, and they should win it all really. 

[spacemunky]

I've got Senegal in the sweepstakes, so goooo Senegal!

[Fox92]

French national anthem always one of my favourites.

Being a defender and facing Mbappe, Dembele and Olise

I just don’t think there’s enough shit on the pitch for these prematch line-ups. I saw some visible grass there.

[Jaspa]

The grass itself looks fooked aswell

[Jaspa]

Oh look France already getting preferential treatment off the refs. Keeper had his toe stood on by his own player so Senegal lost the chance of a corner.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Is there a chance we play Senegal in a knockout? I'd be a bit concerned if there was.

[Raj]

Senegal.playing some lovely  1 touch footy.

 

Be just like us under Russel Martin!!

[fazzyfox]

That Mboppy lad needs to work on his first touch if we wants to get anywhere in the game 

[Finnegan]

How does Rabiot still get picked for France

Been all France since I posted that!!!🤣🤣🤣

[spacemunky]

Fortunate for France there.

[RowlattsFox]

Weird attempt to save from Maignan 

[FoxesWalk]

Senegal very unlucky to not be ahead there 

[Foxdiamond]

3min breaks for a swig of water is completely unnecessary. Coaches should not be allowed on the pitch. Advert breaks more accurate description

[EastAnglianFox]

Just put water bottles on the pitch for 45 seconds, no coaches or manager allowed then get the fvck on with it

[RowlattsFox]

Refs have done pretty well with the soft fouls in the games I've seen. Letting a bit go.
