#27 Belgium 5-2 Tunisia ~ Group G

Post by Puff Daddy »

I believe Belgium will self combust when they meet a decent opponent, whilst I did warn you Tunisia would be no walkover.In fact, I thought England for all their second half dominance, were somewhat fortunate to get the win over the same opposition. Harry Kane's late winner aside, they otherwise, never truly threatened Tunisia's goalkeeper in that second half. This might galvanise Tunisia to even greater effort tomorrow

I’m convinced that the team who finishes second in our group will find themselves on the more attractive side of the draw come the knockout stage. I hope Belgium put six past them.

I have more than a sneaky feeling for Tunisia. One just never knows but for some reason I fancy them today

What's the point of VAR if it's not going to be used for marginal decisions, on the video replays I've seen that looked outside the area, it was close but inches outside.:|

On the line is in and for me that was in. The ref definitely didn’t make a clear and obvious error so the original decision was right to stand imo

Fantastic off the ball movement by Lukaku to create the space for that one.

Absolute horseshit

Only difference is a penalty and a good finish with identical starts.

AND... Belgium now concede to make your post look even more stupid

He does realise that no 2 games of football are the same, different teams, different circumstances, different tactics..

Cracking game, Awful Commentary AGAIN!! (How on earth can Phil Neville motivate the English Woman's national team)

Can see a rare World Cup 4-2 scoreline coming in this one. Perhaps even 5-2.

Forgetting all ramifications for England etc., I am really enjoying this. Controversy, incidents, goals, end to end stuff. Never a dull moment....

Belgium, but you just never know in football. Tunisia could have folder when they went 2-0 down, but they are fighting back well.
