crazy with these crowds in the streets. The aliens could attack and not that many people would care

Let these 2 in and kick England out

Gotta be honest, after Russia scored their second beautiful goal of the match, I was rooting hard for them to win.

That first Russian PK, though

what about the 2nd? Guy scores a goal with a head, but can't hit the broad side of a barn with his foot. I know the old timer wasn't gonna miss his.

Anyway, good showing for Russia.

YES!

Wow those touches

Good game

France is a great team and I'm glad they won, but that last 30 minutes was an embarrassment. They just dumping the ball and wasting time, stupid tactics, robs us of a good show and dirties the whole tournament.

I don’t entirely disagree with reno

First half was ELECTRIC.

France is unbeatable when they’re on their A game but this match would have been so much better if the 2H was more open (although France did have some chances late).

France keeper:

Man of the match.

France deserved to win! Belgium had more possession but wasn't as threatening to score as the French IMO! Let's go England now! Be a nice country rivalry if they met in the final!

Kinda feel like tomorrows match should be for the bronze

2 ridiculous goals so far.

Terrible defense on the Croatia goal

 

[Tron]

Southgate needs to call a 20-second timeout!!

 

[roguejuror]

Fok England

 

[Tron]

Croatia doesn’t even get a proper corner off in the first half of extra time.

 

[Tron]

That was awful

Mandzukic needs to get up off the grass
