    Now im rooting for france just cus i would love to see a game with brazil and france. But whats makes me pissed off is why dont the referee give red card directly when someones is pulling in someone elses shirt or in this case tearing it apart.. just to show that fifa dont tolerate those b---- moves... or was that hand in its "natural position" again?

    Anyway go france

    Stuani has been ineffective and they're having issues transitioning into attack; then again France's rest defense is solid and there's Kante the border patroller. Uruguay have no choice but to push up more, very dangerous giving France the slightest space to attack on the counter...we'll see.

    Edit: It's game, what a stupid goal to concede

    Brazil badly missing Casemiro to stop these counters, Lukaku & KDB having a field day. Much more balanced line-up and Coutinho hasn't been effective moving between Fellaini-Witsel. Belgium's defending good so far, they need to keep frustrating Brazil and continue earning these dangerous transitions.

    Domination?

    Anyone who understands football could see how this was just a tactical mismatch. Brazil are terrible in the air and Belgium are much better physically. They also have fast and skillful players on the counter. Brazil are playing without casemiro. They also have terrible discipline. Unless one of the brazillian players have a GOAT performance they were simply gonna be exposed on the counter. And even if they decided to sit back and play on the counter themselves, Belgium would simply send loads of balls in the air and brazil could do nothing but watch lukaku send them in the back of the net.
