What a game. Brazil did everything they could to score. Courtois is the hero. Great saves. Belgium showed guts. Belgium to win it all.

France vs Belgium could arguably be the final. A shame. Again tomorrow? Russia and Sweden will park the bus and have a chance to get through.

Personally, I'd have Firmino starting instead of Jesus



Even without Cavani, Uruguay are tough in midfield and defense, I think France takes it, but not by more than a goal.



Their defense and midfield will keep them in it so France doesn't run away, and with Count Dracula up front, they can nick a goal or two.

You're probably right. Brazil looked MUCH more dangerous with Firmino in there instead of Jesus

Str

power, strength, and pace.
Belgium has the assets to dominate.

They should have subbed out Felani for Moussa Dembele at about the 60min mark. Felani was worthless out there on defense, just got run past every time and couldn't control any midfield at all.

But, they at least squeaked away with the win.

The last 30 mins of that game is exactly why four years is so long to wait.

I really questioned if Belgium had the form to hold such an onslaught. A full attacking Brazilian squad is a very tough one to hold. Great soccer!

Don’t be surprised if both games tomorrow go to penalties. Sweden and Russia will sit back and absorb pressure.

Neither Russia or Sweden is going to make it. The Belgium-Brazil game was like a final. It was played at a furious pace. Not much passing the ball around to waste time.

There were 2 huge misses by Brazil right after they scored. Even Brazil gets the yips....


Yes there was at least 2 huge misses. It's just the difference between who wins and who loses. I'm sure Brazil has all the stats, except the one that counts.

I think France is the team to beat. Them and Belgium have the best squads top to bottom.

France impressed me today. They played more like a team than they have in past games. Should be a good match on Tuesday.
