    Re: 2018 World Cup

    Very average game this morning between England and Colombia. Apart from the last 10 to 15 mins of normal time Colombia did not play football. They were content on giving away free kicks. Quite happy that they were knocked out. England tbh don't seem much chop but hard to tell. They obviously have Kane who is an X-factor for them. The draw is obviously favourable for them and they could well make the final.

      Fantastic win by Belgium over Brazil. De Bruyne was immense so too Kompany, Lukaku and Hazard. Brazil certainly had some chances but Belgium’s defence stood the test.

      The France v Belgium is a game to look forward to. The winner should go into the Final as favourites

        There’s a bottle of red and maybe a movie that will help me forget our second half and last until the England match tonight!

                  I'm sure chef means that a nation who's flag's colours are red, white and blue is going to win the cup.
                  They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                    Watched the Uruguay v France game and Sweden v England game

                    2018 World Cup Semi Finals

                    France v Belgium

                    England v Croatia

                    Agree with whythelongface that the favourite in the final will come from the France/Belgium game.

                      Oddly enough I think the only country who's flag ISN'T that colour is going to prevail

                        Belgium or England?

                          For some reason I had the Union Jack in my head.

                          I've got Belgium beating England in the final.

                            I’d almost want Liverpool winning the league than England winning the World Cup

                              Yeah, nah. I might be Anglo/Saxon but I'm not Anglo/Scouse!

                              Neither of those things are going to happen so we should be OK there Rem. England, Depart, Semi Final, Penalty Shoot Out. Are the words that will make up the headlines on Monday morning. Hopefully.

                                France too good this morning. Closed down Lukaku brilliantly. Kante, Griezman, Pogba were fantastic.

                                Belgium had some chances and dominated possession but couldn't break through. Loved Hazards game. He is class.
