Uruguay v France, 6th July 15:00 BST, ITV.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I am really excited for this one.

Torreira v Kante, who will outrun who? :popcorn:

I'd imagine Mbappe will get some treatment from Diego Godin. :lol:

[Marc Overmars]

Will have to miss it because of work. FFS.

[SMatthews]

After such a steady diet of daily football two days without feels pretty harsh. Just over a week left and the whole thing is done already.

[Goonermerree]

This should be a cracking match, can't wait, can't predict the result.

[Globalgunner]

We should start a campaign to get MO a new job.


However, when he`s around the games are crap. So maybe we shouldnt

[Letters]

Will have to miss it because of work. FFS.

"working" at home :ninja:

[Özim]

Cavani not starting major blow for Uruguay he's their best finisher.

Think you can't look past France to win this, especially without Cavani, they have too much quality.

[Letters]

I'd expect a France vs Brazil semi-final and the winner of that will win the thing, IMO.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay: Muslera; Gimenez, Godin, Caceres, Laxalt; Nandez, Torreira, Bentancur, Vecino; Suarez, Stuani.

France: Lloris; Hernandez, Umtiti, Varane, Pavard; Kante, Pogba; Tolisso, Griezmann, Mbappe; Giroud.

Come on Torreira. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

MON, Giggs and Wrighty are in the studio.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

MON hates Zlatan, now is he is using his absence as a reason why they should be confident of beating Sweden.

He's got the Homemania too. :bow:

[SMatthews]

Would be surprised if Mpabbe can do much in today’s game with such a deep defence.

That Asian presenter is pretty cute too.

[Letters]

Bloke from Uruguay with a ridiculous head-dress on. Screw being behind him! :lol:

[Globalgunner]

OG!. What a man:bow::bow:

Godin to pay him some close attention today.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

La Marseillaise. :bow:

[Letters]

Uruguay's National Anthem :pal:

[Letters]

France's National Anthem :bow:

All You Need Is Love :bow:

[Globalgunner]

France in all white....Just weird.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bif nearly played in Tolisso.

And Bif dies early on.

[Letters]

And Bif dies early on.
He got better.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Flick it Stuani!

Great move though.

[SMatthews]

France all over the place

[Globalgunner]

Why cant footballers learn to hit the ball 1st time?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay are getting in. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Poor cross from Laxalt.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Horrendous touch from Hernandez.

[SMatthews]

Needs to go in a bit harder on Hernandez.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Umtiti takes out Suarez. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Giminez header, Lloris deals with it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a chance for Mbappe! Poor header.

[Letters]

Mbappe loops one over the bar. Just wonder if he could have brought that down or volleyed it. He had time.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bif fouls our boy.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

WTF did Lloris just eat? :haha:

Matterface infers all residents of this city eat grubs as their main meal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pogba. :haha:

Sends it to Siberia.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oh Bif, not a good pass.

[Goonermerree]

Pogba. :haha:

Sends it to Siberia.

Wrong direction.

[Goonermerree]

Allez Le France!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Suarez wipes Pavard out a year late on the ball there.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wrong direction.

Exactly.

[Goonermerree]

Exactly.

Did he have that much curl on the ball?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gary Fucking Neville calling for the niggly fouls to stop.

[Letters]

Gary Fucking Neville calling for the niggly fouls to stop.

Never knew his middle name before.

[Letters]

Great ball in, good header away.

[Goonermerree]

Never knew his middle name before.

You beat me to that!!!!:lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Giroud...almost connected.

Heard that before.

[Goonermerree]

It's all France, they need to score while they are creating chances. gnasher will probably pop up with at least one.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Caceres went for the Greatest Goal of All Time, didn't work.

[Letters]

Player boots it at the ref :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hernandez booked for being a scrote.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Vecino shot but easy for Lloris.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Utter crap from Stuani.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira cuts out Mbappe's run. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bentancur booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 0-1 France, VARANE!!!

[Özim]

GET IN!!!!

[Özim]

Brilliant by Varane!

[SMatthews]

A Real Madrid player you can't hate. How disappointing.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great delivery from Griezmann, begging to be attacked.

Varane with a great run unspotted by pretty much everybody.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira's setpieces. :cloud9:

Good effort from Nandez technically but easy for Lloris really.

[SMatthews]

What a save that was

[Özim]

Brilliant save by Loris!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a save from Lloris off Caceres!

How the follow up didn't go in either I don't know.

[Goonermerree]

Great save.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira's delivery again. :bow:

[SMatthews]

Godin should've buried that

[Özim]

Top goalkeeper is so important if you want to be successful, real matchwinners.

[Letters]

What a save that was

Yep. Brilliant.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two added minutes.

[Letters]

Top goalkeeper is so important if you want to be successful, real matchwinners.

Cech :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Not sure that's Suarez's fault.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira hitting the right areas nearly every time with his set-pieces.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-1 HT. :popcorn:

[Letters]

Not been a classic so far, but the goal should liven things up a bit.

[Letters]

Suarez needs to get his teeth into this game.
Uruguay lacking bite

...and so on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Muslera. :haha:

Griezmann nearly got it off him.

[Letters]

'Uruguay 'keeper nearly embarrassed.

[Master Splinter]

I quite like U R Gay, but they seem to be the United/Chelsea/Spuds of International football in that they can foul at will without a booking.

And the other team gets booked for their first one.

[Goonermerree]

Suarez needs to get his teeth into this game.
Uruguay lacking bite

...and so on.

Oh p-lease. Get your coat.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Muslera punches it well.

[Letters]

Oh p-lease. Get your coat.

Racist :sulk:

;)

What a delivery! Good goal keeping.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pavard. :haha:

Not this time.

[SMatthews]

Neville digging into Suarez wherever possible.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bentancur. :doh:

Awful effort.

Chaos in France's defence though.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Wouldn't be opposed to Torreria scoring an equaliser tbh tbf.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stuani hauled off, Maxi Gomez on.

[Özim]

Uruguay such a dirty side.

[Özim]

Griezmann!!!!! 2-0

[Master Splinter]

Muslera :haha:.

[SMatthews]

What a wally

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 0-2 France, Griezmann. Muslera chucks it in!

[Letters]

Karius is alive and well and playing for Uruguay... :doh:

[Goonermerree]

2-0

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He probably has a concussion tbf.

[Özim]

Wouldn't be opposed to Torreria scoring an equaliser tbh tbf.

:pal:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

:haha::haha:

[Thierrymon]

Didnt know Karius was from Uruguay.

[Globalgunner]

Muslera has literally killed his country. id be shocked if he can safely return there
Game over

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Muslera has literally killed his country. id be shocked if he can safely return there
Game over

Literally?

I think Uruguay will survive this.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

:pal:

:unsure::unsure:

[Goonermerree]

It's a bit scrappy this game, nobody can hold on to possession. The second goal is in keeping with the rest of the play.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fight fight fight!

[SMatthews]

Knock him out!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

This is great!

Where's IAI?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mbappe and Rodriguez booked. :lol:

[Letters]

It's a bit scrappy this game, nobody can hold on to possession. The second goal is in keeping with the rest of the play.

I thought it would be better than this tbh.

[Goonermerree]

Well I did say it was scrappy!

[SMatthews]

Will someone please knock Neville out. Shut the f up you moany Manc

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hernandez. :laugh:

[Globalgunner]

Neymar has schooled all the young ones with his method acting. Mbappe on his way to Oscar stardom.

[Goonermerree]

Why are the France players getting involved? They are on the brink of the semis in the WC, why would you risk being sent off?

[SMatthews]

Neymar has schooled all the young ones with his method acting. Mbappe on his way to Oscar stardom.
Little bit Henderson too

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tolisso clears it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nandez off, Urretaviscaya on. :lol:

Uri from now on. :bow:

[Globalgunner]

Hernandez off. Unpronounceable name chap replaces him

[Master Splinter]

Get Forlan on.

[SMatthews]

Hopefully we can get that Torreira medical sorted now at least.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bif. :lol:

[Master Splinter]

Bif :lol:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tolisso off, Nzonzi on.

[Globalgunner]

Arsenal legend Nzonzi coming on for France

[Letters]

Thought this would be quite close. Uruguay haven't offered much. Bit disappointing.

[SMatthews]

Thought this would be quite close. Uruguay haven't offered much. Bit disappointing.

Cos Cavani

[Cripps]

Torreira'a coming home :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mbappe off, Dembele on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gimenez crying. :haha:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Hopefully Torreria takes a flight straight to England for his medical after this game.

[SMatthews]

Urucry

[Goonermerree]

Himenez crying before the whistle goes. They are emotional wrecks

[Master Splinter]

The story of Uruguay's population being smaller than that of London has now officially been told more than Dave Whelan's broken leg fairy tale.

[SMatthews]

There are also 300,000 people in Iceland

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira being a cynical shit to stop the attack.

Great save, great to see.

[Letters]

U R GAY :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Griezmann off, Fekir on.

Mind his knees!

[Letters]

Their 'keeper is going to be killed if he goes home.
I do mean literally.
Him :rose:

[Letters]

Griezmann off, Fekir on.

Mind his knees!

Stupid Fekir...

[Goonermerree]

Thought this would be quite close. Uruguay haven't offered much. Bit disappointing.

I agree, France haven't impressed either.

[Master Splinter]

Fekir trying to scupper Torreira's medical.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sam Matterface's caption competition.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uri. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 0-2 France, FT!

They're doing it for Kos. :bow:

Torreira MotM. :scarf:

That leaves it being Brazil or Europe again as it has been for the last 32 years.

[Letters]

Gazza's 28 year old record for most crying during a World Cup game smashed though, so that's something.

[Cripps]

Suarez :haha:

[Master Splinter]

Outside of a few periods in the Argentina game, France have been mostly pub too.

With their talent and individual quality though, they have a higher ceiling than every team aside from Brazil.

Kante and Varane probably their best players throughout the tournament so far.

[Cripps]

France reach semi's and look good to win it when they have no Arsenal players :ninja:

[Letters]

France reach semi's and look good to win it when they have no Arsenal players :ninja:

Wenger already won the World Cup in 1998 :sulk:

Wenger :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

France reach semi's and look good to win it when they have no Arsenal players :ninja:

It's Welbz's year.

[Master Splinter]

France have won two major tournaments and reached another two final with Arsenal players.

They're in the semis this year.

I know terrible WUMming is often a way of life, but when there's not even a grain of a point surely you have to reconsider your internet character.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

As far as I'm concerned Giroud is still one of our own.

[Globalgunner]

As far as I'm concerned Giroud is still one of our own.

Yeah. My wife still fancies him.

i need to lose weight.

[Marc Overmars]

As far as I'm concerned Giroud is still one of our own.

Bollocks to him.

I’m predicting Brazil or Belgium to take France in the semis.

[I am invisible]

This is great!

Where's IAI?
Working - some fucking cereal brand needed some more brand awareness, urgently. High priority, apparently.
