Worked his arse off, was always finding little pockets of space and a tidy finish for the goal. Crap penalty though. thought the complete opposite tbh - really poor first half in particular. As others have said - the main thing that will give germany hope is frances dodgy defence...they have conceded against Romania, Iceland , ROI and they looked suspect against the swiss ,so you would think Germany should find the net against them, however they Muller to find his form and with Gomez suspended that maybe easier said than done France do seem to be coming into something of form , although I would not be worried about the french crowd.....they tend not to overly supportive if things aint going their way. As George Said said ...so much class in midfield and attack....i think that will be enough to get france over the line Edited July 3, 2016 by Green_Tide_Rising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't buy the shite being spouted by Stan Collymore on Talksport that Iceland's legs went after 15 minutes and therefore it's a different Iceland team to the one that England faced. That's utter garbage. They've had six days to recover since the England game and there's no reason at all for them to be anything other than 100% fit and sharp. The difference tonight is that they're facing a team (France) that are playing well, creating chances, and most importantly of all, taking the chances they've created. There's nothing wrong with Iceland's physical condition this evening. France have just taken them apart. Simple as that. I know it's kinda hard to tell, if you are listening to the commentators, but England weren't playing tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Iceland won the 2nd half. Fair play to them, a lot of teams would have totally crumbled in the 2nd half after being 4-0 down at half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green_Tide_Rising Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Fair point .....can't argue with that Wud say Romania caused issues for their defence during their match....ROI did for the first half of their game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
