Spain v France

Who's on official thread duties? Don't make me do it

Mmmm, Sergio Biscuits...Nomnomnom

Mmmm, Franck Rib-eye...with pepper sauce

Not too Xabi, that goal.

France need to get le arses into gear or it'll be Alba for them

Still yet to be impressed by Spain. They lack penetration most of the time without a striker and it's just frustrating. But to be fair to them when they do eventually get in behind they take their chances.

France won the world cup with no front line. I wouldn't bet against this Spanish team doing the same.








(well I have actually but you get my drift!)

I can't work out whether Spain or really hard to break down or France are just offering no attacking threat. Perhaps a bit of both.

:laughingabit: That's a fair point but I can't see them being so lucky against the Germans. Assuming both make the final like I expect.

It will be for sure. I fancy Germany overall though due to their versatility. They can play in different styles with easy, defending with two banks of four is no problem to them, or controlling the game and playing free flowing football like last night. But we shall see.

France should ban Benzema from shooting from outside the box.

Disgusting bit of football.

well what a boring game.

There was an exciting bit just then.
