Not really lol

Final between any team is always 50/50. It's completely different ball game

Same holds true for Argentina, England and Spain or any team in the World
I'm saying that because Spain is hardest match France could have. Their defense is a trouble for France and probally will have more ball control. Also, Spain players are used to play against France players.

England and Argentina far more flaws for France explore

It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming
Football's coming home

Everyone seems to know the score, they've seen it all before
They just know, they're so sure
That England's gonna throw it away, gonna blow it away
But I know they can play, 'cause I remember

Three lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
Thirty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming!

Banger of a song. It's also true. We've been manifesting this victory for 30 years, you have no chance.

(30 years of hurt references our last win of the world cup from the date the song released. It's been 30 years since the song came out... fitting that it'll come home, really.)

Let's hope thats true.

He used 4-4-2 in the last 2-3 games and the team suffered.
Yeah!

Reports are that Scaloni is under pressure to makem changes. And, he has experimented with formations, and rotation of players.

Final decision hasn't been made yet.
 
Bruh - I legit explained that it's evident there's no real hate here -_-. The only real hate tends to be from Scottish and Welsh towards us anyway.

It's coming home was a famous world cup song from 1996.
You said hate and then not really or whatever and then said hate again. Anyway, just clearing things up about the so-called "historical" beefs because I don't know a single frenchman who would be like that. On the other hand, I know way too many french people who are anti-US to an exceeding point.

It's coming home is a song yes, but also used a lot ironically by England's opponents at world cups and English supporters themselves who are being ironic about their fate.
 
@gz89 @D. Plant

One of the more significant possibilities reported by Diario Ole is a switch to a 5-3-2 for the England semifinal.

In Monday’s session, Scaloni trialed a back three of Nicolas Otamendi, Cristián Romero, and Lisandro Martinez, with Molina and Simeone as right wing backs, Tagliafico and Nicolas Gonzalez on the left, a midfield three of De Paul, Fernandez, and Mac Allister, and Messi and Alvarez as the two forwards.

Bayer Leverkusen’s Exequiel Palacios featured in the starting lineup for part of the training session, offering a ball-retention profile in midfield.
Interesting tactic change. Messi on the right passing through the box or shoot. Alvarez's form is still floating around. I don't know if it's too late to make this changes. They might swap Messi out because he have to run a lot.

Just being dramatic, tbh. There is a sort of tongue in cheek 'dislike' of the French over here, but it isn't anything serious. The historical beefs are basically non-existent.

It's just you kept calling us the anglos, so I was wondering if you guys had the same 'dislike' of us and played into it lol.

Honestly, the fact that the song can be used by us and our opponents is what makes it so damn good. A banger, even.

In a World Cup final many players feel their legs trembling, cramping or they make poor decisions due to anxiety.

It is not as easy as we might think because X team has better players.

I played semi pro level myself in my younger years and there were times when both i and many of my teammates felt anxious af.

I cant even imagine what it feels like in matches of such magnitude where an entire nation is counting on you.

Pressure of finals is totally different bro. Pressure is one of the primary reasons why mistakes happen. It affects performance



Regardless of who wins the match between Spain and France, final would be harder match to win - be it England or Argentina as opponents.

Good song indeed. And I don't know, I thought "Anglos" was just another way to say English. Like kinda fun way but not making fun of.

That means the backline won't be pushed to high to prevent counter. I mean do Argentina need it, I don't see a good counter attack from England so far. the only guy who can run and shoot is Bellingham. Kane cannot run. Rashford's shooting is questionable. Saka's counter attack IDK..

It's not about who has better playes. Are we going to ignore Spain defeated France more times than otherwise? Spain has defeated France 6 times in since last Euro. They're literally France's nemesis

France defeating Spain is not only reach a new phase, it's surpassing themselves and become better them they were.

We watched all the France games here, they don't feel preasure, they're too mentally trained and play like they were playing football in fifth grade.

Mbappe himself proved he can't be broken by their the opponent.

I don't place much weight on Nations League matches, because everyone plays more relaxed, there is nothing significant at stake.

When Spain beat France at Euro 2024 Yamal, Olmo, Rodri, and Nico were in top form.

Right now they don't look like that at all but i hope they win tonight!

Bruh no one is questioning Spain and France potential and form.

What we are saying is thinking winner of this match will definitely win the WC is not good.

Argentina or England aren't easy to walkover. Both are top seeded teams.

Also, alot depends on pressure and tactics deployed to exploit weaknesses.


Winner of Spain vs France could be considered as favs but I would still say finals are different ball game especially when your opponents are top seeded teams which are gradually peaking.
