France to win 4-1.

Oh that referee! I'm sure I saw a little bubble in the rear of his shorts when that foul happened!

Long is going to love the French coming out to attack.

 

[tomw24]

I think Ireland have scored too early.

Beat me to it!
Just withstand France's pressure and they'll get more chances.

Was thinking the same...always good to score, but Ireland need to stick to their plan. Forget the goal, forget holding onto lead....play as you meant to.

France are putting some delightful balls into the area, that are so difficult to defend against.

Yep. When they play like this, you can absolutely understand why Giroud is leading the line.

 

[tomw24]

Kante will miss the QF if they win.

 

[st_brendy]

Massive yellow card for us (should France win).

And a pretty important one for this game. He'll have to be careful now.

 

[Libby]

Massive yellow card for us (should France win).

And should we

Good performance from Irish so far, got France in sweepstake but still hoping the boys in green win.

This ref's gonna be under HUGE pressure the longer France are behind. Can see some soft free kicks going their way.

I wish England had a Shane Long!

Pressure is starting to get to him. Evening things up on the cards.

 

[st_brendy]

Kante is not lasting 90 minutes (or 120). Either he's getting subbed, or he's getting a second yellow.

 

[tomw24]

Rami will also miss the QF.

 

[st_brendy]

Another one down.

 

[VVD]

Shane having an excellent game. This France defence are there for the taking.

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

Best game of the w/end.........after 20 mins!

 

[San Tejón]

I'm surprised Long hasn't played more centrally, especially when you consider he terrified Koscielny at SMS, last season.
