World Cup 2018 FIFA World Cup-Group C Thread (Australia, France, Peru, Denmark)

The French are the worst supporters. Fickle and pretentious

Just like in war alliances

 

[FreoRicci]

We can beat Peru. Especially if Rogic is up front playing a false nine and we have an extra mid like Luongo in midfield.

So open and Peru want to attack without their defence holding shape. Really dangerous, France will open them up 2/3 nil if not careful.

Peru are desperate to win, if they lose they are already out when they play us right?

Yeah can see it. If they don't get a point, it's over. Really going all out for it, but France just gonna kill it on the counter with their quality

 

[Admiral Byng]

Thanks. Was wondering by the stadium looked so odd.

 

[FreoRicci]

Look at Pogba acting like a spoilt brat given he couldn't get the volley for an amazing goal. God

You just know that France and Denmark will play out a campaignery 0-0 draw though don't you.

You've been watching them. You know what an entitled bunch of prissy, cheating shit eaters they are. It can go no other way.

I'm not sure about this. Getting an easier draw in the round of 16 could be the difference of a semi final or going out.

how is awer mabil going now?

 

[HODGEYROAD]

I'm surprised how well Australia has played in general play this tournament, sadly don't have the points to show for it.

Peru look 10 times more dangerous than Denmark.

What happens if Denmark lose 2-1 to France and we beat Peru 1-0? We’d have equal results in all matches. Toss a coin? Fewest yellow cards?

my understanding is if its that equal Denmark go through because they scored their goal against us first....

 

[ioppolo]

What a strike, what a shame

It's fair play points isn't it?

Agreed.
Having said that I wouldn't mind a 1-1 tonight just to keep the French honest.

 

[samFFC]

Yup.

And we are currently tied with Denmark (3 yellow cards each).

 

[Collingwoodity]

Far out France look average.

Peru look good when they actually get the ball. When they actually get it.

But if knocked out then may be an easier opponent?

Definitely not on paper, but they function well as a unit.

Guerrero isn't really match-fit though, which will hurt.

if that's equal too, they wont want to toss a coin
