France may be scary but I warned about Spain by referencing the last 2 meetings they had with France. This result does not stun me at all. They are European Champions for a reason. People underrated them because they did not score too much but one thing they do better than anyone is keep the ball.

Time to bring in Pedri to take over the MF 🙌

Don't trust this referee.
There was a foul against Dani Olmo,but he ignored it because Spain is in a better position to score
So you don't know what it means to play an advantage?

If it's the France that dragged Messi to PK at the last final. I won't rule them out yet.

Same way you didn't trusted all the referees that officiated all Argentina matches right?
Well, just give the trophy 🏆 to either Argentina or Spain and we are cool over here
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by 9JAMac10: 9:35pm On Jul 14
been overrating this France team because of individual brilliance. Spain are schooling them on how football is supposed to be played.

This match has 3-1 written all over it
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 9:42pm On Jul 14
This is Spain. Not Argentina. Spain will likely win this WC. I already said the winner of this game is the WC Winner unless the Football gods has something for England afterall.

Even though I dont like tiki taka, I like how Spain is dealing with France - a team of mercenaries.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 9:45pm On Jul 14
He did. But what folks dont realise is that Olise vs This same Spain did not play anything too the last time they met. I pointed it out in a group when we were at the group stage and they laughed it off. I said okay ooo... time will tell.

The discussion then was how France are way stronger than Spain but I let them know that it is not true that they are matched. Spain has elite technical quality and arguably the best midfield on earth while France has the scariest attacking depth in the world.

It was always gonna be a battle too much for even Olise.

I prefer a Spain - Argentina final because a loss for the Argies pains no one. But for England, river Thames will flood.

Lol South Africa started building what we are seeing before the last Afcon, even during the Afcon you could see their progress, forget SA has gone beyond beyond Nigeria and the full result of what they are building will come in the next world cup
How far the building?

We are now waiting for Argentina to complete the assignment.

Would never have guessed France won't even score. Something Belgium did shocked

They turned to Mbappe to save them after their wannabe goat was put in his place, but little did they know that we ain't taking no prisoners. grin

Next match they will be rooting to Kane to save them. 😂🤣

If England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 can scale thru Argentina 🇦🇷 tomorrow,I fancy deir chances against Spain 🇪🇸.i believe Dey can defeat Spain under 90minutes ,but if Argentina 🇦🇷 wins , den Spain 🇪🇸 will lift the trophy 🏆
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by 9JAMac10: 10:15pm On Jul 14
I didn't expect Spain to neutralize France like this.

This is a masterclass in complete collective football
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by COOL10(m): 10:18pm On Jul 14
This is what I call "wotowoto pounding".

I keep saying it: When it comes to football, technicality will always defeat physicality and aggression 99% of the time.

France thought it was all about pace and pressing aggressively but Spain said, "No be by pressing. You sabi hold ball? You sabi move ball?" grin

Spain made France look ordinary today.

England will be a training session for Spain. The only team that will trouble Spain is Argentina.

Omo

I couldn't believe my eyes this evening


Who would have thought

France no see ball play... They were just running around the whole place.

Football na your mate?

It was a going to be a battle between Attack vs Defense

But at the end of the day, the Spanish midfield did not even allow France to cross over to their defense.

Spain stifled the midfield so much that France were just running around like headless chicken. Doue, Barcola, Olise, Dembele and kone lost for field


I comot cap for Spain

An African team would have bottled this 2 goals lead

We really need to learn how to keep the ball... Spain showed us how

I wouldn't go as far as to say that. However as far as this particular game is concerned, I was slightly disappointed with his game today. Or maybe I just expected more from him.
