Lively game so far!

 

[Jamie OD]

Don't like how easy it's been for France to regain possession.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

cant believe it! missed the start wtf ireland

 

[Tubie]

Ref is letting them play, I like that.

 

[dragonbane]

Thank god this early goal ensured France has to try hard now

 

[Akai__]

The best match in this stage of the Euro so far.

That french player totally screw up. Not sure what he was thinking.

 

[Lima]

Hey the bad French defense everyone predicted finally shows up.

 

[Shito]

The Irish player plays it well, sensing Pogba in his back and deviating towards his trajectory.
Still, dumb dumb dumb foul by Pogba, and it was definitively a penalty.

EDIT: hey at least we now have a Euro record, it was the fastest penalty ever conceded. ^^

 

[painey]

rooting for the Irish, just so we could possibly play 'em in the next round. What a game England v RoI would be!

 

[Tubie]

Hope Pogba's ok.

Winner gets to keep NI and Scotland.

 

[The perfect Dark]

France what are you doing

 

[T-Rex.]

What kind of pullback was that? He had s lot more time.

 

[Skellig Gra]

France lucked out there big time

 

[Podge293]

Fucking hendrick. Simple pass to long there would have resulted in a much better chance

I couldn't make out the player, but damn it was Pogba. And yeah. Nice record. Haha

I think France will have this, though. They are fighting.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

I'm going to throw up

 

[El Topo]

Great match. Nice to see Ireland has come to play.

 

[Eanan]

Jesus lads my heart!

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Are french people hating their team as much as England fans are hating theirs?

 

[Creamium]

Missed the goal (no gif yet?), but loving that Irish lead

 

[Tubie]

Great match. Nice to see Ireland has come to play.

Yea, I'm actually surprised by them going forward so much.

 

[Sesuadra]

Are french people hate their team as much as England hates theirs?

I don't think so

 

[Omega Kirby]

Just woke up, and I see Ireland is winning

 

[Shito]

'It's complicated". ^^
We love them when they win, but we are reaaaaly fast to fall back to our "we suck so much" attitude when something goes wrong.

 

[Podge293]

After that World Cup walkout/protest they've lost a lot of respect (according to some sources).

Makes sense

 

[FDC1]

Kante will miss next match

 

[Skellig Gra]

Yea, I'm actually surprised by them going forward so much.

French defense seems completely unorganized

 

[Don Draper's Hat]

Yellows cards should be wiped after the group stages. It's so easy to get booked these days.

 

[Shito]

Kante will miss next match

Yeah this sucks, he doesn't deserve that.

 

[Eanan]

That French defense is shaky under high ball.


And lovely, Kante booked. He can't be as tackle friendly as before now.

 

[Lima]

French defense seems completely unorganized

Like everyone predicted before the Euro's. I mean we were shocked by how stable they were during group stage.

 

[bjaelke]

Kante will miss next match

That's not relevant atm

 

[Podge293]

In slow mo that's just looked nasty as hell

 

[Tubie]

ouch

 

[spekkeh]

France will pull through in the end, but imagine Ireland being able to park the bus successfully until the end of the match, hoo boy.

 

[Skellig Gra]

France will pull through in the end, but imagine Ireland being able to park the bus successfully until the end of the match, hoo boy.

They aren't parking the bus

 

[Eanan]

Kante will miss next match

Don't know if you see but at the moment there isn't a next match for France. I doubt he cares about that now.

 

[Lima]

France will pull through in the end, but imagine Ireland being able to park the bus successfully until the end of the match, hoo boy.

They are not though. Pushing for a second goal.

 

[Podge293]

Yeah are you watching the match? Definitely not parking the bus tactics

 

[Shito]

Thank you ref.

 

[Eanan]

France will pull through in the end, but imagine Ireland being able to park the bus successfully until the end of the match, hoo boy.

What are you talking about. We're not parking the bus. That term has lost its meaning it seems.

 

[Jamie OD]

Stupid foul from the throw in. It was clear how far away from the spot he ran.

 

[El Topo]

Time wasting 30 minutes in? Or did he just move too much for the ref?

 

[Skellig Gra]

Thank you ref.

This ref is legit. Calling it very clean.

 

[Unain]

Yellows cards should be wiped after the group stages. It's so easy to get booked these days.

They used to do that, but then you have the problem of missing the final when you pick up 2 yellow cards during the knockouts.

 

[Shito]

Irish players are doing their best Italian imitation now.

This ref is legit. Calling it very clean.

Yep, love how he let him do to then overturn the throw.

 

[Lima]

They used to do that, but then you have the problem of missing the semi-finals when you pick up 2 yellow cards during the knockouts.

They should just get rid of that stupid rule altogether. It never lead to more fairness and people missed out on some important matches because of it.

 

[Tubie]

France will pull through in the end, but imagine Ireland being able to park the bus successfully until the end of the match, hoo boy.

Ireland has already had more shots on goal than the entire first 90 mins of Croatia v Portugal yesterday.

Yes and I applaud that, that's why France will pull through. I said imagine if they did.
