Romania are doing well, but look very limited going forward. At most 3 passes, and the ball is back in french possession. It will be a disappointment for France if they dont win this, atm it looks like it might very well happen. | ||

Interesting game though, Romania is certainly making it a close one so far. France clearly better but they lack in offense, some good ideas up until the penalty zone but then it's pretty lackluster right now. | ||

How is it ref advantage? lol I didnt see replay from griessman chance but it should have been either a penalty or a corner... I dont know what the Romanian hit, his leg or the ball | ||

France is a bit disappointing, it must not be easy to relax and play simple when there's so much expectation... Against this kind of team, they can pay the lack of risks the coach took, I mean, who plays with 2 DM these days? France has 2.5... Also they play with no wing backs since Evra and Sagna are kinda useless. I'm hoping for some Coman action in the 2nd half! | ||

Pitch looks horrible, another con to opening ceremonies. | ||

I don't know what chance you're talking about but I didn't see any possible France penalties - but there was definitely a possible penalty for Romania in there. That and a lot of 'little' decisions going in their favor, cards and such. There was one non-offside that was called as such, however, against France.

Just general bias that always seems to be there to support the hosting nation tbh. Not deciding the game quite yet, obviously. | ||

I'd rather have Ribery as left back than Evra -.- | ||

He's arrogant, led the crash in 2010, can't defend for shit, can't even help forward but still plays xD France doesn't have any decent left back to put him on the bench unfortunately. Clichy would be better but has never satisfied in the national team, Kurzawa (PSG) has no experience, Digne (Roma) has nothing special and Mathieu is injured (and somehow not appreciated in France). | ||

Also, I meant the second Griessman chance Haha that's what I mean, would be epic to have the same images for us to talk about. I don't remember the chances by their number unfortunately. Either way, I wasn't trying to say that this game is dominated by the ref or anything. France is clearly better and deserves the win right now. This is not nearly as bad as BRA-CRO in the world cup 2014 opener as far as ref advantage goes IIRC.  | ||

Nobody in France wanted to see him play so I don't know what you are arguing about x) It's not like he's ever been good with France. France plays better without him. And yes, he's far superior to Giroud, everyone not blind knows that. | ||
