But thanks for the anti-support. It has been our good luck charm all along. I have nothing against Croatia, of course, but I've been against this Croatian team way before they tied and eventually defeated Brazil in a penalty shootout. I really dislike the way they are playing, their lack of ambition, the way they spend most of the matches defending and just waiting for a chance to score. Of course it must be thrilling for Croatians, but I really hate it. Also, I hate to admit it, but France is the only team that proved their worth for me, since losing with the reserve team is way more acceptable than what happened to Argentina: suffering a defeat with the main team. I am happy for Morocco, but I can't see they beating France. Besides, now they seem to be more confident, but they used the "let's defend and hope for the best" tactic way too often, which is not great.

If you refer to the french loss against Tunisia: France played their B team, so this is irrelevant and doesn't say anything about their actual strength. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,593 Posted December 14, 2022 #5127 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Btw, the American journalist Grant Wahl who collapsed during Argentina vs Netherlands died ot aortic aneurysm. Autopsy was done in New York so the rumours spread by his brother that he was killed proved to be completely false Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it must be thrilling for Croatians, but I really hate it. This is not a good characterization of the Croatian game in my opinion. They had more ball possession than the opponent in every single match except the one against Belgium. In fact their game relies on the domination in midfield, they don't have the players for counter-attacking football. Unfortunately we lack speed and quality upfront, we need to have better strikers and wingers. I'm pleased with the performance at this tournament. Semifinals is really a good achievement with this team, quality-wise there are several weaknesses which we needed to make up for. konig and dcro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
De_Gambassi 896 Posted December 14, 2022 #5129 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Upamecano benched and Rabiot locked at the hotel... Outside of these two, I'm very afraid a virus was going on in the french camp with half of the team being sicked (just like Switzerland against Portugal).
