[John Dunbar]

right at him, of course.

 

[Tragicomedy]

This is the French team everyone was building up? I suppose they didn't have much incentive to go all out here, but seriously...

 

[Murder. She Wrote]

I love this ecuadorian goalkeeper. He's been a boss the entire game.

 

[CTLance]

Even with him half immobile France cannot get past Ecuadors goalkeeper.

 

[QuicheFontaine]

That keeper tho

More like Dom-KING-uez, amirite?

 

[T-Rex.]

Gonna cry if Ecuador spawn this

 

[Acorn]

Straight at the keeper again.

 

[mreddie]

DAT Ecuador goalie

 

[Tecl0n]

What an asshole.

 

[m0t0k1]

I love this ecuadorian goalkeeper. He's been a boss the entire game.

agreed he has been great.

 

[Phatmac]

Poor ECU goalie.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

These pair of games have resulted in the least traffic and posts on GAF's WC thread up to this point. I dont remember another game that made this so slow.

 

[Tworak]

impressed by france shit strikers

 

[John Dunbar]

france ruined my bet so hope nigeria beats them.

 

[Raist]

Not France's fault the ecuadorians are midgets. that elbow would have merely brushed a normal player's chest.

Spoiler

lolz

 

[Broder Salsa]

Fucker should have gotten red, just like Sakho

He should. But to be fair to the ref, it's clearly out of his line of sight... Could have hoped one of the linesman had seen it though. Hopefully they will look at it afterwards, as it was clearly not seen by any officials.

 

[Wilbur]

This thread :lol

France win

"DARK HORSES"

France draw with no incentive

"THIS IS THE TEAM EVERYONE HYPED LOL"

You short termists

 

[TheOddOne]

Dawwwwwww.

 

[dallow_bg]

Can't believe Ecuador couldn't just get one goal here to advance.

 

[Ostinatto]

Lo lamento Ecuador

 

[KingSnake]

Ecuador dominating in 10, lol.

 

[QuicheFontaine]

Can't believe Ecuador couldn't just get one goal here to advance.

They need two

 

[Salvadora]

It's roasting in Brazil and because FIFA doesn't allow drinks breaks below a certain temperature, the players are drenched in sweat.

As such, it's no surprise that elbows are accidentally colliding into faces like we can see in the Giroud GIF.

(because they are slippery).

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Can't believe Ecuador couldn't just get one goal here to advance.

With the Swiss scoring 3 goals I believe they need two.

 

[m0t0k1]

Man France has been horrible this match. Loved the last 2 games from them

 

[inky]

They should ask for a suspension for next round. Dirty fuck.

 

[jamesinclair]

Ecuador needs to score 2 to qualify and kick out the Swiss

 

[Juicy Bob]

France can't beat ten-men Ecuador.

Also, Giroud should get a red for that elbow.

 

[Chakan]

Giroud go home. You suck.

 

[LNBL]

He should. But to be fair to the ref, it's clearly out of his line of sight... Could have hoped one of the linesman had seen it though. Hopefully they will look at it afterwards, as it was clearly not seen by any officials.

Yeah true, the play was on the left side of the pitch.

 

[CraigerGamer]

This French match is exactly how I hope tomorrow's USA v Germany match goes. Boring. very little drama.though they could omit the bloody head if they so choose.

 

[Envelope]

Good fight Ecuador!

 

[jett]

A pathetic performance from Ecuador. I just can't.

 

[Neo C.]

With so many teams already out, the lurkers are fewer and fewer.

 

[Kurtofan]

Number 1 yeah!

 

[-x.Red.x-]

Fuck fukcufkfkd you honduras. congratz switzerland

 

[marc^o^]

This is the French team everyone was building up? I suppose they didn't have much incentive to go all out here, but seriously...

France with our playmakers is a different team. Valbuena and Cabaye were on the bench to be in top form against Nigeria.

 

[dallow_bg]

They need two

With the Swiss scoring 3 goals I believe they need two.

Argh, missed their last goal.

 

[figadapaura]

You tried, Ecuador. Sad to see you go.

YES UEFA

 

[Fularu]

That Wasn't a B team, that was an F team

Never again Didier

 

[CTLance]

That was quite the poor showing for France...

 

[Phatmac]

Bye Ecuador... ;__;

 

[LNBL]

A pathetic performance from Ecuador. I just can't.

You mean by France right?

 

[Sickboy007]

Ecuador gave it all, no regrets.

 

[ColossalLazy]

Sad for Ecuador. France was just lol missing all those chances.

 

[fasTRapid]

'No chance' is pretty vague, mate. At any rate, you don't have to hit the ball to not get a red card.

Not for us, it's not. It's up to the individual ref to interprete that from case to case, but since we all went through the same lessons and all saw the same examples, we share the same opinion on the matter.

 

[WAR recon zero]

Ecuador has shit forwards and shifty Toño Valencia

Ecuador is the first team kicked out I will miss. That last minute goal they conversed in the first game was the killer.

Ecuador you gotta start playing outside Atahualpa

 

[Black Republican]

Shame about Ecu, but i thought both teams played decently

 

[macksplack]

South america send packing in this poule.
