[WC 2018 R16] France 4 - Argentina 3 FT

[Dr. Sabinus Okoro Phd]

That is a red card. Where is VAR.

Otamendi has dodged 2 reds in this WC but can't dodge the aeroplane waiting to ferry him home.

Anyway, what a game! See people wey sabi play, and wey dey play with passion. I predicted Argentina to win, but I am happy to be wrong.

You were probably high on Okpa and tea, I always knew either of Argentina or Nigeria were going home one after the other.

Africans spend all their time complaining about being considered to only play with pace and power.

And the French? Today they thrived on pace, power and composure!

You embrace who you are; then you maximize it...

I said it in the Rohr failed tread that Africans must return to a polished version of their style to excel. Pogba and Mbappe showed why the likes of Nigeria where previously feared. Good luck to them playing like Germans and Italians.

@Maru, France would hit the Eagles for six...the 3-5-2 was ran rugged for 45’ by an anarchistic Argentina, this well oiled blue machine, irrespective of Didier Crapshamps would’ve issued a beating and a half, the type that would’ve had the RSPCB flapping their wings. Nigeria are not on that level and don’t have the arms for those type of gunfights.

Returning to Sampaoli, madness!

Well I am glad someone saw the stupidity of play 3 defenders against Argentina, it would have been a massacre against Mbappe and co.

How can? You are never right in anything. I guess for the World Cup, you must have quit eating 15 hamburgers a day at MacDonalds, just so the arteries to your brain will be clear of clogging fatty-fatty substances. Good for you, and keep it up.

Mbape says that he doesn't need to be paid to play for France. All proceeds of his WC loot donated 1 way to charity. Well done young man.

I hope some can try and understand his interview. The kid speaks like a 60 years old man.

This result was not a surprise to anyone that's actually watched Argentina this tournament and over the last year. They are a disaster and have relied on individual talent to win from time to time. They have the talent to win trophies but haven't had a single manager figure out how to present a balanced side on the pitch. This particular team was dreadful to watch and Sampaoli will deservedly get fired very shortly. Messi has one WC left in him and he'll still be a top player in Qatar but I hope he finally gets a decent manager. Argentina hasn't had a good one since Pekerman who left in 2006.

France won a big game and I expect them to prevail over Uruguay. I'm concerned however by their defense and having Giroud as a starter since he offers nothing and in fact, the presence of another mobile striker would be a nightmare for any defense. Mpabbe is a stud and is a WPOY in the making. His poise is incredible and I hope he continues this form during the WC as it'd be a great story to have a 19 year old do this well at the WC. The guy could also end up being the all time WC goals leader within the next decade.
