Martinez completely changed the Belgian system tonight to make them more effective on the break.

 

It can be done, even in the sort period of time. I hope England don’t end up regretting sticking with a system that isn’t creating much in open play.

Belgium played well, but Brazil created umpteen chances and should have had a pen, plenty of promise for France and maybe England in the final.

Belgium to beat France

 

England v Croatia in the other semi I’d imagine, too tight to call

 

Have two teams from the same group ever met in the final before now?

Brazil v Czechoslovakia in 62

Posted

Uruguay v Costa Rica in 1930

 You're just being a silly boy.

You (should) know there were no groups until 1950, and Uruguay beat Argentina in the first final, held in Uruguay to celebrate the centenary of their independence.

Damn. Caught out.

That Courtois save against Brazil was up there with the Gordon Banks save against Brazil in 1970. Outstanding.

 

Come to mention it, that Pavard goal for France against Argentina is up there with the Okocha free kick v Aston Villa, what a tournament.

Belgium look ominously good. Them and France easily best two teams.

 

Still think they can be beaten though

If there’s any set of players to know them it’s ours. They play with and against half their team week in week out.

Citizen at work

The correct term is City fan or supporter. Referring to supporters of other teams by their club nickname is as cringeworthy as referring to them, for example, as your ex-ICF or ex-Treatment mate that someone on here does on a regular basis.

I thought it was Cityzen any road.

Manc twats either way.

 

Belgium in KDB and Hazard have 2 of the most skillful players going and with Lukaku and Feliaini can go route one with the best.

They did look a bit shaky at the back at times yesterday and better timing and finishing from Brazil would have had them ahead before the OG
