Consigliere Posted June 28, 2021 Author Share Posted June 28, 2021 He was given space to do that at the WC. He's rinsed defenders this season too - see the CL game against Barca. The Swiss have defended well and given him no space to really use his pace - they've been double or even triple marking him at times. I agree with PG - Coman needs to come on as there is no threat at all on the other flank and basically all of France's attacks are coming down their left which has made them predictable.

john Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Ended up streaming it on TF1 after ITV crapped out. If you think English commentators are biased for England games you need to experience French ones. To be fair they have a lot to shout about.

Yeah, the Swiss really had to take their chances. Against France especially because they have the best talent pool in world football and this squad is brimming with top class players who can produce moments of brilliance. ETA. all hope is not lost for the Swiss though. The French defence has looked very vulnerable and practically useless at set pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spockydog Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Benzema better watch out. That goal was so sexy, someone might blackmail him with a video of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
