1-0 France!

 

1-0 France. Raphael Varane.

 

Brilliant glancing header. Now Uruguay will have to go for it!

 

Godin should have buried that.

 

This Caceres fella is looking quite good. Wonder if he's ever played in the PL?

 

And they have been, in fairness...

 

French kit is a bit **** 80s flecked t-shirt. Like this -

 

I still think they’ll nick it, maybe on pens.

 

T shirts? I had a black suit with flecks like that in the 80s

Dunno. France have looked the better side, and Uruguay are missing Cavani.

They have Suarez though...

 

I think missing Cavani is going to prove more critical than having Suarez.

 

I had a sharkskin number with black flecks. Very retro mod.

 

I said to my mate on his prediction game last night, “I’m going 1-0 on the understanding Cavani plays”

Some player.

 

I will say in Frances first game I said that Pavard looks really poor, maybe was nervous , but he looks like he’s gained in confidence and could have a big future ahead of him.

 

He was awful in their first game.

 

The whole team were, tbf. They've improved throughout.

 

Bye Uruguay, awful mistake.

 

I said pre tournament that France were the best team in it, but that I thought they would choke and under achieve. Looks like I was half right and half wrong

 

2-0, awful from Muslera.
