Mbappe ghosting this tournament is not talked about enough. Messi or Ronaldo were never afforded this luxury. Even Henry with 2 fine open play goals and better play in Euro 2004 was excessively criticized, despite having won both WC and Euros previously.

Mbappe is living on WC tax credit.

True. He’s been woeful in the Euros. But scoring a hattrick in a World Cup final. Mehn. That’s not a small achievement.

He’s still got work to do tho. Don’t think he can reach the highs of Messi and Ronaldo. His Real Madrid chapter beckons tho

timbros:
You go explain tire...

@bolded.... And what happened to Morata? Where is he?

One player one goal vs a full National Team of 26 players one open play goal.... Which is more shameful?

You too like to cap sha

France is a team and they have achieved what teams like Germany and Belgium couldn't - Semifinal berth. The target of a striker in each match is to score goals, which Morata as usual, has performed poorly in an exciting team like Spain.

Morata : 1 goal 0 assist in 5 matches.

Terrible.

ThierryJay:
Kolo Muani missed almost the exact same WC final chance vs Portugal yesterday. So, Pendulums should stop blaming him as the scores are now even.

Lol... Na why I say France for President

Dem just deh balance everything people had against Argentina at first

Even that his Real Madrid chapter, I'm afraid the optics don't look as promising as before. Maybe he'll pick up sha. But Dembele recently having better games than Mbappe is a sign of anomaly.

France the great leveler!

Na to level themselves comot Euros remain

BlueAngel444:
that's like 5 centuries ago, anyway whats my own

Someone else thinks Southgate is lining up a 3-4-2-1 today with Saka at LWB, but instead of using Trent at RWB he is using Trippier 😮‍💨

Foden will play more from the centre. More like a double 10.

Carot:
Yash wey no big anything

It must not be big. The shape and the softness matter a lot too.

Donut midfield

Switzerland na real problem

Good pressure from England...Saka looking real sharp early on

Because of Dembele abi 😂

andrewbaba44:
Na this one you take Dey console yourself ? Lmao

As in they dan start comparison already
No peace for the wicked 😂😂😂

With just 1 goal and no assist in 5 matches from your spineless Morata, the top striker. Shame on you and Morata.

how many goals has mbappe score to be in the semi final

Switzerland have no answer to England's high press so far.

Folden teaching Bellingham how to control midfield.

Saka looking sharp he should try different approach as the defense is well packed

Bellingham holds on to the ball unnecessarily.

Lol No joy for that traitor bro.

Only a handful of things irk me more than when a team messes up a routine and passes their way back to their own keeper from a fvcking cornerkick.

Terrible.

And the target of a team is to concede goals? How does a team win matches if their target is NOT to score goals? If a striker don't score, the midfielder can,the defender can contribute, even the GK can help the team score goals to win a match. But but France, your team, from strikers to GKs, how many open play goals have they scored as a whole? More than Morata?

undoubtedly, Foden is way better than Jude

Oh my did they almost score 😴 I must have slept off

Saka vs Aebischer has been a mismatch. At least the latter has been smart enough to recognize when beaten and avoid making unnecessary contact in the box

Mbappe is not a natural striker and he may give a broken nose or uncomfortable mask as excuse. What's Morata's excuse?

They had better remove him before water passes garri.

When Saka sees below average defenders, he will suddenly know how to drive the ball.

All of a sudden Saka is getting a lot of 1 v 1 with the LB for Switzerland because his 10 is moving and ensuring the ball moves for easy isolations.

What this game needs now is for Declan Rice to grow a pair and start passing the ball into the channels rather than the unimaginative pedestrian sideways passes he keeps making. He can copy Maino sometimes for example.

They took pretenders and tired Giroud as top strikers, to the competition and that's why they are struggling after Mbappe's nasal injury.

This is one of the reasons I fear for Chelsea going again to the next season with a striker like Jackson as our main striker.

Sportsweb:
That Portuguese team de try..too bad they became good in RONALDO'S decline.

The Portuguese team only started producing capable players 2 to 3 years ago when Ronaldo was far from his peak form and aging. Peak Ronaldo with this current team would have had at least 3 world cup and 4 Euros. Ronaldo with the Argentina team Messi has enjoyed all through his career would have 10 world cup at least. Even with all the bums he still delivered two trophies during his Era.

Aren't you ashamed of typing all these excuses why France, one of the favourites in the tourney, cannot outscore Morata who you are trolling in open play...

Have some shame man!

This Ndoye sef...lay the ball off or take the shot ffs
