Impossible. Happy to wager in whatever currency, they’re going home quick fast like Ramadan, it’s the rap phenomenon, dun dada.

I still stand by this, because Argentina is going to beat France on Sunday.
It is possible. Will it happen? We'll see. France will have to play a perfect game to win because Argentina will get the calls. If Dembele develops a brain to go along with his speed and skills, Tchouameni plays mistake-free, and Upamecano does not play, I give France a good chance.

I say 50:50...with Messi being the x-factor.

I'm doing my best put my bias against Argentina aside. But they can be a dirty and cynical side if they face adversity. And they have gotten some calls, which always bothers me.

Note, I made the prediction an hour before their quarter-final game against Netherland.

Are you not forgetting somebody? Somebody Mbappe terrorized the Argies in 2018. None of their defenders could keep up. Of course the defence is different this time--except for Old Man Otamendi. :biggrin: When Mbappe attacks from the middle.... :biggrin: ...egwu ga di (there will be terror)

I suggest that the teams are balanced and it may depend on which superstar shines on the day.

...I predict there will be a red card during the final match.
A naive defending (France) or rough play retaliation (Argies).

I agree oh. That guy is brainless and a lot of french plays die at his feet :curse: I'm hoping this is the one time he actually does something good. If he was just a tad useful France wins this. That Upamecano guy is all brawn and against the diving Argies he will cost them as they will exploit that.

If France plays a fast game and utilise Girouds aerial prowess and press the Argentina back line they will win this

But I fear Deschamps tactics might cost them. Plus their lack of a true playmaker in the absence of Pogba might be fatal. Isn't Payet in the team? :sad:
