I WON THE BETTING POOL ON TESSAS THIRD STUPID VOTE AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS HALF-ASSED TITLE

Truly we were all spoiled by Portugal vs Spain last night. Nothing is going to compare to it... This world cup peaked on day 2.

Who or what can challenge, and stand a chance at beating, the corporate juggernauts dominating the world?

aussies ain't gonna create three sitter opportunities, at most they'll miss three contested headers

France figured this would be a cake walk and have lost all morale. Australia are incapable of capitalising on this.

Apparently France forgot to put Frank Ribery in their squad? WTF.

I feel like France’s whole team outside of Kante & Griezman are over hyped, underperforming frauds.

Pogba was shown to be average in the premier league for one - I’d rather have Aaron Mooy.

Mbappe & Dembele = meh.

Wait for the next game, when Iceland (hopefully) destroys the Argies.

How bad was the first half? Just got home, and German radio didn't bother with any kind of live commentary. :argh:

France had 10 ok-ish minutes at the beginning, then deflated completely. Australia are pretty good at defending. That's about it
