He was rugby tackled. But this is the wrong thread to discuss that and we just about scraped past Tunisa so I'm not bitter.
edit: ^^ Thanks. Yeah it's about right.

So close. Feels like story of this WC for us 🙁
We really need Peru to beat France. I think any other scenario doesn’t give much incentive for France or Denmark to chase a result in their game.

here we go Peruuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!

In theory yes, but in practice I dont think you want to rely on a team that is guaranteed to advance (France) to go all out for a win the last game. Assuming France win against Peru, a France-Denmark draw would be a win-win for both at the expense of australia on the last matchday. For the same reason, I think a german draw against sweden would be almost as bad as a loss.

Ah true denmark wouldnt have to play to win. But maybe france will want to solidify 1st place?

This referee looks overwhelmed, not really bad so far but just not ready to deal with the full power moaning. Let's see if the dissent card for Guerrero saves him

Boring game so far
Peru has the ball but they are super unoffensive with it and France let them have the ball
|
The highlight so far are definitely the acting/acrobatics performances by the french. Mbappe looked like he got shot just now
|
I'm increasingly convinced VAR won't be good for the game in its current implementation. Until they begin to look through all situations, including free kicks, it won't be fair. And if they do, it will create a game with far too many breaks. Yeah yeah, I'm Danish and may be coloured by the penalties against us, still the argument stands.

Mbappe could have turned and played that with his left

Unless we fly them in to european/south american leagues, at what higher level can asian/african referees possibly gain experience before their first world cup? Confederations Cup? Club World Cup?

Umtiti and Mbappé pathetic. Mbappé is the french Neymar

I think his prerequisite is fine. He just has to get the WC experience so he gets more used to this level
Also Mbappe stole Giroud’s goal.
