Winner coming from the pther sidebof the bracket.
France, Portugal and England would be favoured over Argentina/Croatia.

I don't think the game was even at all, until after the 2-1 Argentina clearly the better team, de jong was the only dutch player than looked decent.

Thought after 2-1 Netherlands was looking for the equalizer and Argentina just defending.

Great game though.

Argentina shat the bed at 2-1 as made subs as if game was over than panicked massively.

Better team quite easily for first 80 odd mins then in ET were far more dangerous overall.

I have concluded that you would have been happier if Netherlands won.

Country over fave player.

Of course I am supporting my country before fav player. But thought both teams were very evenly pitted against one another. Ill support Argentina. Hope they get more clinical. Netherlands is decent side but far from strongest European side.

Gotta say I expected Netherlands to be a lot more free flowing and progressive in their style of play.

The starting attack looked pretty toothless.

Who do you reckon is faster?
Kylian off the mark, Kyle at full speed?

Kylian for both. Top speed is closer but Kylian for both.

Off the mark Kylian is insane.

He does this stop start thing where he doesn't need any time at all to reach a high speed.

Mbappe is an absolute nightmare and unstoppable 1 on 1.

It's impossible for opponents to keep up with his start-stop moves because he takes no time to change gears and/or directions.

Netherlands is far better than decent. Felt they got underrated by people before this game when in fact they were undefeated ever since Van Gaal returned last summer. (14-6-0 before the match)

They're a disgrace, for a Netherlands side. Playing negative football like some small side. Cross and inshala to some donkeys. Cruyff must be spinning in his grave.

I might be talking shit, but I seem to remember seeing Ousmane leave Kyle for dead before, no?
