Messi was almost anonymous in this match apart from the second goal.

Until just then from that cross for Aguero to score.

Adiós Messi :w00t: :lol:

 

I think France and Brazil are the 2 biggest contenders to win this World Cup. :P

Best game of the tournament, Bappe is so good, France as a team really gelled in this match, some great goals in that match, Pavards' goal was quality.

 

Now I want Ronaldo and his team to pack their bags tonight.

What a fantastic game! Scoreline isn't really reflective of the match as France completely dominated throughout but can we have all the KO games like this? :teresa:

 

Looks like Messi will be retiring without ever having scored a knockout round goal at a World Cup, madness.

 

Very tough to call tonight's match, I'm leaning towards Portugal which would set up a tasty Euro 16 final grudge match in the QFs!

Pavard's goal is the best of the tournament so far I think, Di Maria's goal is a close 2nd. When Sergio Aguero scored in the 90th minute I got flashbacks of that infamous day in 2012 but I'm glad that France held on for the win. I wonder how Maradonna is feeling now? :D

OTOH, if he'd scored we'd have had another 30 minutes to look forward to,

What a great game of football. France were deserved winners. I can now fit the last 20 overs of the cricket final at Lords in before watching Uruguay v Portugal.

Yeah that's true but Argentina probably would have gone on to win on penalties if they had made it 4-4 considering how lucky they've been.

Now that was the kind of match I like to see - a sense of urgency from both teams and none of that awful 'fluke a goal and then defend/waste time' strategy that I've been seeing too much of. Even in the dying minutes it looked like Argentina were still going for it despite being two goals down!

 

Best I've seen France play in a long time, looking much stronger to contend if they keep that performance up.

If Brazil get through they'll play France in the Quarters. Pity it can't be the Final.

I think the quarters will be (Brazil or Mexico) x (Belgium or Japan). Right?

Didn't see the game but sounds like it was a cracker! This is why it's too early to write teams off who have not looked good in the Group Stages yet but have got the results.. pleased for Mpabbe, I tipped him to be top scorer, doesn't look like it will happen, but what a way to announce yourself on the world stage.
pleased for Mpabbe

 

Who? :P

 

Yeah it was a fantastic game, Kylian Mbappé had a good spell and the fact that it could have easily made 4-4 made this a thrilling watch for a neutral. Sadly I have to root against France in the QFs as Uruguay are my sweepstake team.

Yes, sorry I was wrong.
