Is it possible that these two teams lose and Germany qualifies instead?

I recon this match is going to be super boring. France have not scored a single organic goal and Portugal seem perfectly content passing the ball from side to side of a team just stalls on the edge of the box.

I saw more chances that should've been goals than I expected.

I thought Portugal deserved to win. All in all I think the ref was good, especially compared to the ESP-GER match and all in all it was a fair game.

I do think players should stop all their nonsense when taking penalties. Messi missed a panenka, Ronaldo's penalty created controversy and Felix just straight up missed it. Look at Mendes who just rams it in the top corner.

Can't wait to see Spain destroy these French cowards.

I fear that too. But the stakes changed with the beginning of the knockout matches, so their play styles may change too?

Oh so this €1 billion team managed 1 goal from open play in 5 matches? No problem then. They deserve the title.

It just really grinds my gears that Deschamps insists on playing like this

Hopefully Spain batter France in the semis.

If they get through to the final without even scoring a goal, it will be a disgrace.

Spain are definitely the team to beat, but I am kind of afraid of having to watch DechampSouthgate sufferball all the way through to the final and beyond.

LMFAO. Spain ftw at this point definitely agree.

Just as long as the English go out and I don't have to listen to my brother in law banging on about a win.

Jesus. Imagine it.

France was abysmal, but Portugal was playing with 10 men once again and thus lose the game.
