France hits the post when the keeper goes the wrong way. Should be 1-1. Thankfully it is not.

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.

I've been thoroughly unimpressed with Aboubacar Keita this whole tournament and he got beaten leading to the go ahead goal.

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.

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.

that was a great strike from dest.

France scores. This is over.

Doesn’t matter the sport, Surly never fails to deliver on game threads.

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.

Credit to the kids, they were getting out played and looked like they were fading. The found a second win and fought back. Gotta hold on for probably eight more minutes.

I need to quit missing these games... thanks for the schedule update. 

Oh yeah, suck it France. You're still part of the axis of evil.

Ecuador thrashed Uruguay as the 3rd place team in their group today. Scored 2 goals in their first 3 matches.

Horrible writing, but yes they did find a second win in this tournament.

Amazing job by these young men. They certainly were gassed but found a way to overcome.

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. 

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.

To a man, Mali players appear to be 20% to 30% faster than their Argie counterpart. 

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. 

Sneaky quick start by Mali ties it at 120:00 with 3 minutes of stoppage time.

Holy Crap, Mali almost won it in extra time.

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. 

Mali knows how to convert penalties. First four have been great. Up 1 on Argentina.
