Someone get him to a doctor, his salt levels are through the roof.
i would say about 8/10 of my predictions are correct. I correctly predicted most of the England games and predicted a draw for Brazil's opening game. And Belgium/Japan. 80% success rate.
That is just complete nonsense.
Hahaha, good riddance you sore loser.
Seeing shit like makes me always yell "shoot" at the Tv whenever someone's in decent range with a little space. Meanwhile ittakws crazy skill to pull off these kind of shots.
Not that surprising given his ability.
Basically the same shot
Here are some others
I'm French.
Imagine accusing another team of playing bad football when you had to resort to Pulis-Ball to beat Japan.
I'm French.
This is the literal translation of "it", whatever "it" means in this case (I assumed the cup).
Nobody speaking decent French would use "il" for an object, unless French really devolved in the past 15 years?
"They know when an opponent plays very deep, that's where we have problems."
All I hear is wah wah wah. That's what happens when you keep getting lucky. But guess what luck eventually runs out for all.

Il est possible d'"utiliser "il" ou "elle" for an object ("La Coupe"), in a more familiar context.
More likely drunk/ party I guess, or slang. It doesn't make it a more correct translation though.
There's also a thing called sportmanship. He stole the ball from a defender, kicked it away and proceeded to neymar all over on the ground. Every football player does one of the three things. But one has to be a natural asshole to do the 3-act combo so instinctively. It's such a rare behavior.C'mon get real. He's an asshole for wasting time and getting on the opponent's nerves in a World Cup semifinals? He's not supposed to be friendly to his adversaries, it's a competition.
Wasting time is part of any sport. People do It in basketball or American football all the time. It's called running down the clock .no shame in that.C'mon get real. He's an asshole for wasting time and getting on the opponent's nerves in a World Cup semifinals? He's not supposed to be friendly to his adversaries, it's a competition.
Given that the cup is an inanimate object, it applies equally.Using "ça" is incorrect though. It can only be "elle" since we're talking about the cup.
That kind of shit happens in every country, and is such a minimal proportion of fans it has no worth in being brought up to be used against the majority of fans.

The Il/ Elle pronoun just denote more familiarity, but is no more correct.
Except he's not wasting time or running down the clock according to rules. That kid was being an egregious little cheater. The ball was in the other team's possession and he repeatedly took the ball away so the other team couldn't play.
Yep. Only one game, anything can happen. England / Croatia will have one less day of rest though. But honestly I don't know if it matters...I'm not as confident in France as others. I still remember that Portugal disaster Euro final. If England can make it there, it's anyone's game.
That was a response to someone who defended the little cheat by whatabouting American sports. Time wasting happens in basketball and others but the players still respect the rules. When a player breaks the rules intentionally and repeatedly, that's cheating, not time wasting. Time wasting in football is running the ball to a corner, taking longer than usual to get up or kick the ball... Stealing the ball from the opponent AND kicking it out is time wasting if one is a cheat.This doesn't make any sense. Just because the rules didn't specify exactly what Mbappé did, doesn't mean it's not timewasting. The idea behind what Mbappé did is clear timewasting, he's trying to stall by moving the ball as far away as possible so Belgium has to wait until they receive the ball.
US referee Mark Geiger is among the officials who made the final cut at the 2018 World Cup, putting him in contention to oversee the tournament final or third-place game this weekend.
FIFA's Referees Committee selected 12 referees, 26 assistant referees and 10 Video Assistant Referees for the event's "final phase," and Geiger was one of two Concacaf-based officials on that list, along with Mexico's Cesar Arturo Ramos.
Refereeing assignments are released 48 hours before World Cup matches, so Geiger would likely learn of any weekend assignment on Thursday or Friday.

Yeah this is a really bad look for Belgium. If they had deserved to win that game sure we could entertain these complaints but really that game could have been just as easily 3-0

How about we see whether France can win a trophy with Deschamps finally before calling another loser to the managerial positionFrance have the best team by far but they are so negative once they scored
Deschamps the water carrier
Hopefully Deschamps fucks off and they get a manager who plays football for the Euros
Wenger with this team would be great to watch
Mbappe has an amazing 90 minutes and some clowns on here focus on his ten seconds of time wasting? You must be causal fans.
When you're up by one goal, minutes away from a final, you do everything in your power to run down the clock. Is it good sportsman ship? Ethically, no, but not enough to be condemned. It's tactical more than anything.
Players will intentionally foul someone to stop a counter attack, knowing they'll get a yellow card but they'll do it knowing they'll stop a potential goal. That's considered being tactical but you could also argue it's cheating (when it isn't).
I can't wait until this cup is over so footygaf can return to normal without these cretins invading our discussions.

I'm English, so I'm definitely not rooting for France. By that same token, I'm not going use hyperbolic language because a player is time wasting. That's not the same as clearing the ball off the line with your hand to stop a goal (a la Suárez again Ghana). That's clear as day cheating.That's silly, you can see where Mbappe is coming from and still call it out at the same time. But I'm sure it all depends on who was rooting for who. For France fans, Mbappe is a hero.
Yup, because that's exactly what I said. Anyone who has watched football knows that time wasting is part and parcel of the game when you're up by one goal in the final minutes of a game.Lol, really hilarious you actually think you're knowledgeable and the authority on this topic or something..."pathetic casuals" lol.
Bad sportsmanship is bad sportsmanship.

Whether it's: taking longer to take a throw in or goal kick, taking the ball to the corner and trying to draw a foul etc. Yes, the former can be considered bad sportsmanship but so are professional fouls when the other team in through on goal. It's called being tactical.
In the nba, when a player intentionally fouls the opposition to force them to go to the free throw line in the final minute of a game, in order to regain possession, is that bad sportsmanship or being tactical?
If you can't understand that then I can only come to the conclusion you're a casual fan.
