June 4, 20196 yr France hits the post when the keeper goes the wrong way. Should be 1-1. Thankfully it is not.
June 4, 20196 yr Halftime. France is the better team. The heat is going to wear the US team down as much as they're on the back foot. Hopefully we get some magic.
June 4, 20196 yr I've been thoroughly unimpressed with Aboubacar Keita this whole tournament and he got beaten leading to the go ahead goal.
June 4, 20196 yr That was an odd goal. Perfect deflection at midfield for France. He blew by our defender, the goalie had the angle yet it got passed him, hits the post, our two fullbacks are slow to react but get a foot on it and still goes in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
June 4, 20196 yr It's going to take an individual moment of magic if the US is going to equalize because we've been getting nothing going forward.

June 4, 20196 yr The game turned when Ulysses Lanez Jr came on. He breathed life into the US attack and the game has been on much more even footing since.

June 4, 20196 yr Here are the original odds to win the tournament: France+375 Portugal+650 Poland+700 Argentina+1000 Nigeria+1200 Uruguay+1200 Italy+1400 Mali+1750 USA+2000 Senegal+2100 Argentina and Mali are playing as we speak so one of them is gone as well.

June 4, 20196 yr Author Amazing job by these young men. They certainly were gassed but found a way to overcome.
June 4, 20196 yr I just turned on FS2 in time to see an Argie kind of holding a hand to his cheek like he was still trying to sell getting hit in the face even though the ref wasn’t buying it. I ‘be seen that act many times before.
June 4, 20196 yr Mali player with a Barça-level dive. EDIT: Now the Argie keeper is faking a strained hamstring off of a goal kick. Complete horse shit delay tactic. Edited June 4, 20196 yr by Napoleon
June 4, 20196 yr After almost scoring off of a corner kick sequence, Atlanta’s Barco goes down like he was shot. (Ultimately gets a yellow for time wasting as he is subbed off. Argentina is putting the pressure on as they are up 2-1 with 3+ minutes left in OT.
June 4, 20196 yr 1 minute ago, shnsajax said: Holy Crap, Mali almost won it. Complete clusterfuck in front of the goal nearly handed Mali the win. The ref should have gotten the hockey assist on Mali’s second goal, because he didn’t spray a white line for the defender, but was telling him to scoot back a bit more, then a bit more, then a bit more... completely engaging the defender so the offensive player could float behind him and take the quick kick without a defender 20 yards from him when he got the ball not far from the right corner of the box.
