Belgium looking like the team mostly likely to stop France. I don't think any of the teams on the other side of the draw, with the possible exception of Croatia, can beat France.

Uruguayans now out to get the showboating Mbappe.:2guns:

Veteran keeper with a howler. Looks to be over for Uruguay.

Disaster!

How did he miss by so much? Great save though by Loris.

With two early attacks a bright start from Uruguay.

This has been widely shared on Twitter with probably millions of views: https://twitter.com/YedIin/status/1013877023046078471 Watch Lukaku's run. Drags the defender inside to create space for Meunier and then dummies it brilliantly for Chadli. Brilliant work. Lukaku is getting a lot of credit...

Those were good penalties by England, even the missed one (Henderson) wasn't bad, just a good save. The Pickford save was great. Sweden's finishing today was atrocious. The names of several Swedish players were trending on Twitter early in the match due to how badly they missed decent...

Colombians digging a hole before Kane's penalty? https://twitter.com/BarneyStuart21/status/1014226787654651905

Neither team deserves to go through.

There's lots of diving in hockey. It's been part of the game since the 1990s.

The referee is struggling. The Colombians are creating havoc at every free kick.

BTW what about Neymar's hilarious overeaction to the minor stomping he received from one of the Mexicans.

Yes, but two Moroccan substitutes scored. The talk so far is what great substitutions those were by Martinez. I wouldn't be surprised if they start against Brazil. Actually, the main problem was that the Japanese were not prepared for a counter-attack from the corner. They were trying to win...

T They were also careless in the midfield when they were up 2-0 leading to the attack where Vertonghen scored that weird header.

Sad ending. Two of Belgium's goals scored by Muslims.

At this WC we've seen Messi, Ronaldo, Modric, and Christian Eriksen all miss penalties.

Credit Modric for stepping up. Some poor penalties there. The last Danish miss was a 'stutter step' penalty. I never like those. Pick a corner and just belt it there or down the middle.

I wonder if Modric will take a Croatian penalty. Talk about pressure.

How was that not a red card for Jorgensen?

On comes Sisto:(

Our commentator mentioned that Spain had completed over 1000 passes as if that was supposed to mean something beyond boring us to death. They rarely ever looked dangerous. Even their goal was a bit of a fluke. Croatia v Denmark has been much more entertaining.

Spain have been disappointing in this tournament thus far. The Russians have been playing for penalties from the moment they equalised in the first half.

I agree with ThePhilosopher on Argentine incompetence. And who the heck was that clown who caused the melee with Pogba after Argentina's third goal? They needed to get on with the match as they'd only a minute or so left yet this clown gives the French an excuse to waste what time was left...

Mbappe becomes the first teenager to score two goals in the WC since Pele. Here we go...the media have found a new hero. Disappointing result. Argentina were poor at this WC. They struggled in every match. France will probably play Belgium in the QFs. The winner of that one might win the whole...
