They had a French street market in Muswell Hill yesterday. I bought some cheeses, just as I was paying the guy he winked at me and said, in his Peter Sellers Pink Panther accent, “Quarter Final”. Bastard then rubbed it in by saying “Maybe in 4 years…” I still want the cheese smelling snail eating bastards to win though. Just about.
I want Argentina to win, just so people will wind Piers Morgan up about Messi being a world champ and the love of his life Ronaldo isn’t.
Excellent game as well. I know it’s a bit of an unwanted game for fans, but I guess there is still a medal at stake for players once they get over the initial disappointment. It is probably a better feeling as a player to win bronze than be runner-up as well, something to signify your achievements without the disappointment of just missing out on the grand prize.
Seems to be a bit of a controversial decision, but I’m happy with it. He’s built a massively solid base, we just need some luck to go our way.
I thought that was a penalty - albeit soft - and would say it’s one of those decisions where whatever conclusion the on-field referee comes to, it won’t be overruled by the VAR. I also want an Argentina win so I’m fine with it.
Griezemann not featuring at all and France suffering for it. Argentina hustling for everything though which is good to see.
