Other Games - 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup Edition (+ warm-up matches): Villa-watch

[AlexAlexCropley]

France didn't put a glove on Spain. Probably the most complete team performance of the world cup. What a player Rodri is.And Danny Olmo.

France thought they'd won the tournament already I think. They just didn't perform at all and seemed to go down two gears from earlier on in the tournament. We just need Emi to have a shocker tomorrow now.

Cue for him to break England's  hearts in the shoot-out when he saves all our penalties!

[ChicagoLion]

I thought Spain smothered France, dominated al over the pitch and whenever France had the ball they put in a niggly foul to break any momentum up.

I though the ref was lenient with them, how Lamal didn’t get booked.

Have they ever thanked us for D day?  We still get a tree off Norway at least.

Thought that prat Cucurella was terrific too, annoyingly!

[Tayls_7]

Spain utterly controlled that game but had PSGs Digne not kicked Bishop Brennan up the arse it might have been a different dynamic for much of the tie. IF England face them in the final then Spain can keep hold of the ball as much as they wish when it's 0-0. In that situation England can be outplayed (they would be) but with Kane, Rogers and the lad who played a handful of games for Blose they've always a chance.

[Mellin]

Just realised that only three countries can now win the World Cup. One of them is England and none of them are France.

Did not expect.

[Sexual Ealing]

I can't see England or Argentina taking anything from Spain.

[Pete3206]

Spain knew their onions.

France fans extremely croissant after that.

Spain feeling on tapas of the world

[PeterWithesShin]

Spain had 2 shots on target.

Mbappe,Dembele,Barcola,Doue didn't have a sniff

[ChicagoLion]

Watching the criticism of Digne for the second goal is complete billow, if he had gone to the centre and left Lamal in 10 yards, they would be criticising that.

[Somniloquism]

Could still be France-Argentina match this world cup, just it will be for 3rd place.

[Chip Butty 111]

Blimey, ITV blaming Digne for the 2nd goal. Got it in for him . Neville been on his case all tournament. No mention of the CB messing up.

[Mellin]

Outrageous blaming Digne for that. He has his man. It is Lamine Yamal. No midfield or wingers anywhere doing their part, which is why he can't come inside and why they've just been battered.

At least Keane and Vieira corrected him.
