Agree to disagree Pogba still had a play on the ball after the contact

Mine froze early in the match, but seems to be fine now.

yea, I just think Kompany was beat and trying to foul him. Pogba did give up too easily.

France now turning it on with pressure the past 10 minutes or so

griezman did a good job to dribble through, but I think he should have been looking to put someone in behind

Have you ever watched him play. He is always like that and then he pulls some incredible goal or assist out of his ass.

Man I wish he was still at Arsenal

Feel like he's doing a great job to stretch the backline, which will leave room for mbappe and griezman to run in underneath in the gap

I was going to say he's doing a Sterling-like job for France right now. Nothing spectacular but creating space for teammates. Finishing will come

Pogbas is tugged, but greatly exaggerates the contact. I would love for the ref to be allowed to not call it when a player does that.

Belgium looked great for the first 20 mins, but it has been all France since then

8 yd wall. That's been pretty consistent all tournament and I just don't get it.

looks like France playing a higher line and selectively pressuring higher up the pitch (like speed pressuring the central defender only when a ball is returned back to him from an outside back)

I agree. Strange to not see him putting in goals but he opens a lot of space for Griezmann and Mbappe. I think he's had a great tournament and looks pretty good today

Lukaku as well. Both had to come back to get any real touches which only compacts them even more

Wow, is everyone still in the can/vodka line, or are there really that many empty seats?

I may start reacting like the French Prime Minister after an Aggie touchdown. Shaking hands and completely calm like it was almost expected.
