Because once you get to the semi, you are one step closer to the cup. I mean, it starts to be a concrete option so it's normal to be in tears I guess because you missed your chance.
It's not legit. That's why he got carded for it. That's not an act of wasting time but being an asshole.
On vacation so it'll be fun being able to get to the bar at like 1230 tomorrow and start pre-gaming. We are NOT losing to Croatia. I strictly forbid it.
I can understand not being proud because ultimately not having a chance to win it even though you could have is disappointing. Nobody wants to fall short.
Also, England, NO CHOKING vs Croatia please. This must not happen. Ann and Makoto in my avatar are literally almost wearing England home jerseys so England must win.
Still my favourite goal in World Cup History (maradonna's goal is legendary but eh)
And the fact that I'm a Bergkamp has nothing to do with that I dare you
Yeah I don't know about "far and away" but right now I think it's either Xhaka vs Serbia or Pavard vs Argentina.
Belgium should have scored in the first 25 minutes when they clearly dominated and were fresh. After that and after the first French goal it was clear that it was going to be a defensive match.
LOL that was totally unintentional. Luckiest goal I've seen in my life. One that changed the dynamic of the game sadly enough. If that didn't go in, who knows? Belgium might not even have made it to Brazil.
Yeah, it's all in good fun.
The thing with my predictions is they are not actually bad predictions. I made some poor predictions regarding France, but most other predictions were all good picks. I am not going out my way to meme. It's just that everything I say turns out to be wrong. I call Pepe shit in this thread and he scores 2 mins later. I say Lukaku isn't scoring and he immediately scores 2 goals. If I gave a list of my predictions for this world cup and you never knew the results, you would likely agree with a good majority of them.
Then there is the dark horse thing. I was calling every semi decent team a dark horse at the beginning of the tournament. But the one team many considered a dark horse but I made clear wasn't? Croatia. And I still consider them a very poor team btw.
This World Cup is nuts. It's a meme that my predictions are terrible (and they are) but many people are struggling to predict results this World Cup. It's filled with upsets.
That pavard goal is absolutely mind bending. That's the kind of goal they will show in the opening montage for future worldcups
You said France was a small football nation and that we weren't worth shit. 3rd world cup final in 20 years. First country to reach 3 WC finals since the WC expanded to 32 players. We could become the first nation to win it twice with 32 countries.
I mean your trolling was entertaining and I still who is behind your alt but damn don't come here and say most of your predictions came true lol
Netherlands eliminated Mexico in the 4th round and went onto the semifinals on the last WC
Remember when France went 2-1 down to Messi and his team of honour? At that exact moment we both agreed France were shit. That's how I choose to remember all our exchanges on here.
Tibo with the salt haha. Deschamps did go full Mourinho but he won and that's all that matters.
Maybe that's why they didn't classify to this world cup
Yeah he wanted to start a huge confrontation and waste 10 minutes off the clock like the Argentinians. That shit don't work on the Belgians though
"I'm not Ronaldinho, I never will be, but I'm Paul Pogba from Roissy-en-Brie and I'm going to play a World Cup final!"
He also dedicated the victory to the kids (heroes) in Thailand.
(Asked about the ballon d'or)
I don't care about the Ballon d'Or, I want the world cup. I want to sleep with it, and everybody in France
Is this guy for real? Belgium played with all their players defending for 60 minutes vs Brazil. They barely try to counter attack in the second half. They played super defensively and now he's blaming France for doing that for like the last 25 minutes? Lol what a joker.
Also it was posted before and I will repeat it again, France had 3x more opportunities to score than Belgium. How is that parking the bus?
What a stupid cunt. Great goalkeeper. Poor human being.
Even more hilarious because he trashtalked Brazil after that game... now he gets salty because the opposing team played counterattacks like they did.
(And Belgium attacked less in both games anyway)
I think he meant that he want every Frenchmen to have the cup, but it came out weird. "Dormir avec" isn't as sexual as "sleep with", it's more like sleeping with a teddy bear.
You know what's the worst part? If we had a good forward and we'd won 2-0 or 3-0 I feel like he'd have said the exact same thing LOL
That van Bronckhorst goal wasnt even fair. It was just ridiculous. No matter how better your team is, that goal breaks the game. Amazing
He would have a point if Belgium didn't play worse than France.
France had more chances and played smart.
The dude is the ultimate sore loser who is completely delusional.
Who the hell even thinks about shooting from there. Especially a defender. Amazing.
I've been asking myself this question for the past 8 years. Why did he decide to suddenly shoot from there? How? It's not like he was known for shooting a lot. Insane goal.
Not that surprising given his ability.
Basically the same shot
Here are some others
You get carded for all forms of time wasting. What he was doing was best for his team. It doesn't make him an asshole. Whatever team you support will have done similar in the past and would again in the future.
Have you ever played football competitively? Like Sunday league (amateur)
Who the hell even thinks about shooting from there. Especially a defender. Amazing.
That's my favorite left foot area to shoot from. The angle is promising.
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.
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.
What, he wants teams to play how Belgium wants and give them the win? LOL, Japan played Courtois's 'real football' and got punished for it. France is smart for playing defensive. Countered Belgium's approach very well.
In high school even in those 'just for fun' school leagues where we just played each other casually people tactically fouled, wasted time. Hell, I was playing on defense and someone was going to rush our goal, so I slid and tripped him up.
