Lovely third goal that ?

We are having test events with reduced numbers and monitoring. The Hungarians have just gone for it.

Who is right starts to touch areas we can't go to, I've tried to keep factual ?

Yeah it's tricky - taking population into account Hungary have comfortably the worst record in Europe for Covid related deaths. Maybe they just feel they are past that now.

Such a different player when he has Kante doing all the dirty work allowing him to just roam where he wants - that space behind the forwards, it’s the same when he was at Juve

scary pairing, scarily good. not like he doesnt do his share of the work either though, just like watching a different player

france still going to need Giroud to come on and kill the game too

Surprised they didn’t check it with VAR

Surprised they didn’t check it with VAR

wouldve been checked but clearly a directive to keep games flowing and not make decisions, pens, cards etc, at least early in the tournament

That Rudiger fella's a nasty piece of work.

France look superb, hopefully they will peak too early

France barely got out of first gear. Germany don't look like much to be worried about.

The German's looked toothless. Very disappointing.

Oh I don't know...the Germans being toothless at a big footy tournament sounds quite appealing...
