- Start date
Tchouameni has been a passenger this game, drops in between the CBs but no real contribution in the build up apart from side ways passes to them, invisible while defending
Rabiot and Kante are at least getting involved going forward

Excellent game thus far. France have been decent and Spain made two really beautiful goals. Could see this go either way in the second half.
Nah, france really are just that, ball wide to Mbappé/Dembele quickly and let them cook. Spain is the same though, they just look better doing it(mostly *are* better doing it)
Is Micah a man of the cloth now?
The bobble has spoken. Wouldn't mind a few more world class strikes as well.
How the feck does Micah have a job as a pundit? He is fecking everywhere. He is a worse pundit than he was a player.
Looked like an FSU v. Miami match from the late 80s.
This is a bog-standard game at every other tournament in my lifetime. In the context of this stinker of a tournament it looks like the 2022 World Cup Final.
Just seen the replay of the Nacho push on Muani. He's fortunate not be sent off imo.
Good half of football that, best of the tournament.
France, as good as their team is, just look awfully one-dimensional every time I see them play. Similar to England where they lack someone to dictate the play in the middle. Mbappe is the most electric player on the planet when he wants to be, but he’s faded since the first 20 minutes.

Packing your team with players who are good at recieving the ball is such a simple thing but so bloody hard to play against.
Kounde is one of the most overrated defenders.
Yeah, good game, but not extraordinary. Plenty of reasons to be satisfied if you’re neutral.
Bit dramatic guys.. it was just a high school move
You and the other guy better stop trying to make this happen.
Couldn't have said it better when it comes to moving the ball forward. It's just all too slow
Why are they sitting on top of a glass building. Their hubris is disgusting.
Best Real Madrid defense in a decade.
He's had a good tournament overall. He isn't a natural RB anyway so there's a limit to what can be expected of him
Rio thinks Olmo is a kid at 26.
How does Rio get a pundit gig? He’s so stupid. Vapid nonsense.
Replaying the Lamine Yamal goal, wow. 16 years old. I've never watched him before this tournament, but wow.
Better than watching England this
Absolutely filthy strike.
It's gonna happen.
Wow! great and fun 1st half.
France has scored more open goals than in the whole tournament...
France has received more goals than in the whole tournament...
Haha.
Not bad.
Incredible goal by Yamal... no words.
And fantastic Olmo, who always delivers with the NT.
Spain needs to keep pushing for the 3rd, because sitting back is not our thing. We suffer way more. Nico/Lamine shouldn't be changed as they've always been. Navas should leave soon. He is doing better with the minutes (huge mistake in France's goal), but the yellow card is very dangerous.
He was born in Spain, he grew in Spain, he speaks Spanish as the average spaniard. The logical thing is him playing for Spain. It is like saying that Cameroon messed up with Mbappe because his father was born in Cameroon.

You can be mad when the only reason you conceded these goals is because your three defensive midfielders have decided to not actually defend.
16 years old is utterly ridiculous.
Guy scores in the final hattrick, bringing his team back from certain defeat and then loses to pens.
Had France won itd be unbelievable
I guess you're right but overall I expected Spain to win regardless. I just hope the French team leave everything out there, make us proud
I wonder how Perez is getting on with his draft proposal for a Mbappe/Yamal swap deal
Samba is a wonderful last name for a footballer.
Who?
I expected Spain to win but what actually happened is that they haven't been good and our own players have decided to make no effort on the one thing they are supposed to focus.
Feels like the tournament winner is the winner of this game
Spain switch from free-flowing attacking football to absolute shithousery in the blink of an eye. This love hate relationship is too much for me.
Guess he didn't watch the last world cup
