Not impressed by either of these teams.
Deschamps has lost the plot and Portugal were clank machine. Should be easy for Spain, but semis... you never know.

France are well drilled tactically in defence and midfield. Solid block to stop attacks through the centre and they very rarely get caught short in dangerous defensive transitions.
But fuck me they're puke in attack. Could be getting so much more out of their excellent set of forwards. It's all down to the manager too. Could easily change it

did Ronaldo win the toss and let France take the first pen?
Most pen-serie wins are by teams that take the first, weird.

Spain - anyone final is okay by me, Clive (obv England but lol come on). No Portugal, no France.
The way boomers feel about Germany is how I feel about Portugal. 04/06 cut deep. Feel like it’s why I never truly loved Ronaldo like many other United fans.

Ronaldo has stunk the place out at successive international tournaments.
Incredible that different managers have sacrificed their systems and tactical flexibility to cater to Ronaldo's legacy building.

By Fergie Go To PostWhat a year to not be Joao Felix.Bitch ass boy that has been living off of 6 great months a few years ago.
He is only called up because Jorge Mendes is desperate to sell him against.
By Coldnoodle Go To PostMbappe masterclass incoming in the semis.Man has looked washed without Pogba. Nobody with passing range in that France midfield.
Spain do look weak on the counter but I think they'll have enough
By Batong Go To PostDoesn't Spain have half their team suspended for the semis?Nah
Carvajal is suspended and pedri is injured
I don't think there's anything else?
By FootbalIFan Go To PostNahMorata I think.

Probably better if Olmo played anyway
By Killer7 Go To PostMorata I think.Morata was shown by the broadcaster to have received a booking but it's not confirmed by UEFA apparently
Probably better if Olmo played anyway
And if he is suspended, wouldn't be a huge miss
That game was fucking awful but thank fuck the result we needed, Ronaldo being sent home, is what we got.
France going to win the tournament with own goals and penalties only. I'll be so sad when Spain lose to this lot.

The cursed anti-football champion baton has been passed. Greece 2004 -> Portugal 2016 -> France 2024
For the free kick that Portugal won near the start of the match (that Fernandes ended up taking), the commentator said "this is within Ronaldo range" as a graphic appeared that he was 0-33 from free kicks across Euro matches. I can't imagine what he's going to look like for their world cup run.
Canada have been quite solid this tournament so far. Doesn't look terrible for the 2026 world cup for them at least
By Patriotism Go To PostHas Tadic been suspended for his Chetnik salute yetCan you fill me in on the demiral thing m8? Is he correctly being suspended or is it overblown
