Really nice goal by France.

Played the Nicklaus Friday and the Kernow today. First one was a bit testing, Thursday we play Bovey Castle

Fvck…VvD is down.

Hopefully it is not serious

still limping slightly

Seems to be ok while walking around shaking hands with teammates and oppositions. Hope that is nothing to the ankle.

Whew!

Looking at stats and there’s a very realistic chance that Griezmann becomes France’s best ever top scorer at the end of this era let’s say.

Giroud is only 5 short of Henry, but who knows if he gets there and even if he does, if he manages to keep Griezmann behind him.

Griezmann is 10 short of Henry, a key player with still some strong years ahead, being 30 years old. Level with Michel Platini since tonight. Look up for France’s first goal tonight, absolute peach of attacking play and finish.

Benzema is back, but 20 short of Henry, that’s almost impossible for him to catch.

Griezmann made his debut for France when he was on the verge of his 23rd birthday.

Club career wasn’t so successful so far in terms of trophies due to a number of reasons. But what an impressive international career, it must be said. Chapeau.

Cunts. The international break, still the gift that keeps on giving.

Don’t understand why Turkey keeps playing Söyüncü instead of Kabak???

I literally don’t understand what Brazil and FIFA want.

Had we released the Brazilian lads, they would have had to skip quarantine to play.

Maybe because they think he’s better. :slight_smile:

And he probably did play better at the high level. Though Soyuncu does have his wild/red card moments he needs to cut out. Not the finished article of course, even if he’s not a young player anymore at 25.

FIFA wants football to operate in a world where they can ignore the pandemic and public health measures set out by governments.

Brazil wants clubs where their players play to release them so that they can also ignore their own country’s quarantine rules for their players, but not for any players for the opposition.

Sounds about right?

Soyuncu got 2 yellow cards and was sent off in the match yesterday (not surprised again on Soyuncu…he is teetering on getting sent off in every match). Kabak played but Turkey was smashed by the Dutch.
