Posted July 5, 20187 yr The quarter-finals begins with Uruguay v France, The big news for this game is Edison Cavani is very likely to be ruled out with a calf injury (although if Uruguay get through there is a good chance he'll be available later in the tournament). Blaise Matuidi will be missing for France through suspension The game is live on ITV. Please use this thread for speculation, pre and post match chat on the Uruguay v France game. How do you see this going?
July 5, 20187 yr This is such a tough one to call, gonna plump for Uruguay by a nose but definitely supporting France 100%.
July 5, 20187 yr Uruguay I think will win through their solidarity in defence and their ability to usually be able to get a goal after relatively few chances.
July 5, 20187 yr Author France 5-2 with France beating Sweden or England in t final and grtting the cup That would be a great game if that happened, 5-2 to France. Don't think it will be thrilling as their Argentina game. I would say France look the most impressive from what I've seen but their defense looks fragile.
July 5, 20187 yr Uruguay's defence will be hard to break down but France have the players to do it and with Mbappe in such good form I think France will have too much for Uruguay.
July 5, 20187 yr Depends if Cavani makes it to the match, France is clearly the favourite here BUT Uruguay can always surprise.
July 5, 20187 yr Its going to be a tight match, it probably finish as a draw in 90 minutes possibility going to penalties with France winning, mind you without Cavani Uruguay might cave early.
July 6, 20187 yr Hopefully we'll get a more entertaining match now that Uruguay cant sit back and defend so much.
July 6, 20187 yr Horrendous error from the Uruguay goalkeeper. Somewhere in Germany Loris Karius is having flashbacks.
