Knockout Stages - Round of 32

[AdcockFox]

They are making it look so easy

I know in this country we all have to want them to lose but it's hard to cheer against France. Superb team and the best chance of a Euro win on the Great Satan's soil. 

[RowlattsFox]

The little pass into Olise too is great, 99% of the time that goes out to the full back.

Olise running the show. 

Pretty sure he's Kane's favourite player

No way are Argentina 2026 beating this French side 

[Lionator]

Pissing it here, 3rd gear and steam rolling a semi decent European side.

They could as they have a much easier route to the final so could be in better shape. If they played today France would win 

[EastAnglianFox]

I swear some said Spain were favourites this year.

 

Absolutely nowhere near this French team

I'm very happy to see an excellent French side doing well. They've got this in the bag

[spacemunky]

Bring on N'Golo!

[bovril]

worst crowds at any world cup bar maybe Qatar. Possibly even worse.

Sweden are fairly shite, and arguably shouldn’t be here, but still. They got 2 points and didn’t win a single game in qualifying. Got in via nations league route. 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

They're too good

[filbertway]

Are they using VAR to correct corner decisions or not? I'm confused as I swear ive heard that they are

[spacemunky]

Too good.

[bovril]

sexy

[filbertway]

Get that flag up!

[FoxesWalk]

What a lovely goal that is, Olise is a cheat code

That's just overkill  

[RowlattsFox]

Unreal. 

 

Only way they don't win it is if someone can shithouse them. Argies will try their best. 

[Lionator]

This has been superb, Mbappe is an animal at world cups, he’s gonna end his career as the leading World Cup goal scorer by quite some distance. 

[urban.spaceman]

This is going to be 5 or 6

I noticed he has yet to play for them in this WC.

 

Would be a shame if he doesn't at least get a run out at some point.

[Jonezy]

Whoa... 

 

I will fully admit to start liking this French team. Most sexy football, i have seen since Huth brought it to Leicester.

[Amin]

Doue allowed to stroll past half the Swedish team with no resistance.
