World Cup 2018 World Cup 2018 Predictions - Who Will be the Winner?? - France vs Croatia Final Poll

[goatwack]

Blow me sideways.

Back to France

 

[goatwack]

This is why the WC is like a 2-piece pie.

Everyone loves the knockouts

Germany wouldn't have lasted 10 minutes against either side

Best game since Spain/ Portugal?

 

[mcgameboy]

Great start to the knockout stages. Brazil and Chile did the same 4 years ago.

Two brilliant goals. France's equaliser was even better than Nacho's goal against Portugal.

Japan v Senegal was a pretty decent game too Goatie, but not quite as good as Spain v Portugal.

But this game has now surpassed Spain v Portugal. I could see this game finishing 5-4 after extra time.

 

[goatwack]

Errm

I un-retract post 196

I was right all along

 

[goatwack]

Ok I've stopped calling it now

France look dangerous. Mbappe looks quite the snip at £160 mil.

That is all.

 

[Hibson77]

Argentina is going to lose the match now.

 

[lotusch]

What a game..France upped the gear a notch and destroyed Argentina.
Would love to see a screenshot from that coke sniffing drunkard in the VIP box now.

 

[goatwack]

Jesus does it ever end

 

[mcgameboy]

Game of the tournament so far. France showed their class once they fell behind.

 

[goatwack]

The scoreline flatters Argentina. France were different gravy when they needed to be.

Semi-final no doubt....

 

[Jono777]

2 down, one to go, GET IN!! - Well done France (for now!)

 

[mcgameboy]

The scoreline flatters Argentina. France were different gravy when they needed to be.

Semi-final no doubt....

I'll reserve judgement until I see how Uruguay fare tonight.

If Portugal somehow get through, I'd be unleashing Mbappe against Portugal's 35 and overs in defence. And give Pepe something to really cry about.

 

[goatwack]

France have had to rebuild from the ground up after their hapless capitulation in 2002, much like Germany have done post- 2000.

Takes the best part of two decades, but now we're seeing a competent France again with some frightening talent.

Portugal & Uruguay are reliant on one or two stars respectively, and may not recover once they retire. Spain are on the brink of decline......

England, meanwhile, will squander another generation of players and conspire to lose against Columbia after a dodgy Alli back-pass. And then blame it on 'The wrong type of grass'

 

[goatwack]

Wow. How'd you like them apples

 

[robby811]

Messi & Ronaldo travel together Home

 

[mcgameboy]

Uruguay are going to be hard to score against. Godin is so under-rated.

 

[goatwack]

Cavani & Suarez are quite the combo

Either one are are world-class anyway, have been for years, but together....

 

[mcgameboy]

Yep....pick your poison defending against those two. And pick your poison attacking against Godin or Gimenez. Those two play together for Atletico, so they are about as well-drilled a partnership as it gets.

 

[mcgameboy]

And so all 32 teams have scored. And now all 32 teams have conceded.

And I seem to have developed a case of commentators curse-itis

 

[goatwack]

Not a bad toe-poke miskick by Cavani there

 

[mcgameboy]

Beautiful and almost too easy

 

[goatwack]

There we have it, the winker's on the next plane home

These goals though in this WC, quite unique. Basically pens or worldies

 

[robby811]

Now get Brazil back to the Copacabana and Belgium or France win the Cup.

 

[Denis Becker]

This World Cup are kickin' all current champions ass

Copa America Champion Chile not qualified , World Champion Germany k.o. in group, Vice World Champion Argentina & European Champion Portugal say goodbye at round of sixteen...

Europe Vs. South America 1:1

 

[goatwack]

I want Switzerland to win the World Cup. I'm quite neutral like that- like they were during many a conflict

And they're the closest thing to Germany left (just better)

 

[dave1888]

I've got a fiver on Urugay doo da doo da

 

[mcgameboy]

I hope Cavani isn't out of the QF.

And now I won't get to see any game live until the QFs. Working afternoon shifts tomorrow, Monday and Tuesday dammit.

Here's hoping Sweden, Mexico, Russia, Belgium, Croatia all advance.

England v Colombia I am neutral. But I hope Harry Kane scores at least once, regardless of result.

 

[Denis Becker]

Now get Brazil back to the Copacabana and Belgium or France win the Cup.

i think Croatia made it

 

[mcgameboy]

You mean SwitzVARland? They are in the last 16 because of the refs. I hope Sweden crush them.

 

[goatwack]

I hope Croatia don't choke in the knockouts, they've got the basis for a title-winning run. But to lift the trophy?

England have the 'easiest' pathway imaginable, if they blow this chance they may not get another for about 50 years....

 

[robby811]

Belgium is close to germany to xD

 

[goatwack]

Belgium is close to germany to xD

But Belgium blows ass.

Actually, that's a lie. I like Poirot

 

[robby811]

: D

 

[Welshy88]

Got this Horrible feeling Croatia may get knocked out to Denmark.

 

[goatwack]

Denmark have three recognizable footballers, namely Schmeichel (only famous because of daddyo), Eriksen, and Sisto, of Football Manager fame

It would be a crime against the sport if they beat Croatia

And we have one, Harry Kane.

You should know by now my name's not Harry Kane!

 

[Denis Becker]
