So it should have been a yellow for the keeper, but not a pen

Anyway, 3-0
This Messi feller looks good

Yeah I was wrong on the yellow it shouldn't of been a yellow or a pen. Croatia have been really poor though and Argentina are deserved winners.

Yes, most definitely.

Messi has had tidy tournament, Ronaldo hasn't.

Overall, Ronnie has had the best career I'd say.

I feel a little dirty defending Ronaldo, but he's also two and a half years older than Messi, so comparing them just on this tournament doesn't prove anything.

Kind of want France to win tonight to set up a potentially great final. Argentina might well walk over Morocco, although judging by what Morocco have done in this tournament you never know.

 

[Swanjaxs]

Have to say the Moroccan lad Sofyan Amrabat has been outstanding so far, playing just in front of the back four and doing the dirty work, one of the players of the tournament so far imho

I'll bump this if you don't mind, absolutely outstanding so far, player of the tournament for me

A player went down injured and had treatment but didn’t have to go off , a similar thing happened yesterday. Is this a new rule for the World Cup?

If the referee gives a foul then the fouled player can have treatment if injured without having to go off, I think...

I suppose, with the added time being as it is, there’s not so much incentive to feign injury now to try to run the clock down.

What a player Griezmann is. France's Leon Britton. He's everywhere.
I wonder if Athletico would take an offer from the Swans for him? The money we got for our boys attending the tournament, and a couple of Rossi's rissoles?

 

[Muteswan]

Unlucky, that would have been the goal of the tournament.

Absolutely, I think the rule was brought in a good few years ago where a player needing treatment after a foul doesn't have to leave the field of play on restart

If the player who fouled him was booked he does not need to go off
But some refs seem to forget this
