Nooo I like a bearded Roy!

Wish to god they would play some different songs

Who's going to win do you reckon?

My money's on France 🇫🇷

I think France will lead for most of the match, but Morocco will end up winning it in OT

Ooh I like your thinking!

I think it will go to ET

Has your DS moved far? What pizza did you end up getting? I love a pizza with anchovies, prawns and tuna 🙈

Death by a thousand passes then for France!

Hope France win - me and my DM are part- French 🇫🇷

I'm not sure I'll make it to the end of normal time, let alone ET!

I like to a bet a player to score. Then I feel as if I am on the pitch myself. The odds were 5 to 6 on Mbappé. I can't bet 6 to win 5, no player is that certain to score, and I don't want anyone else. I am saving my money for Harry Kane to score 2 against Norway.

I'm on the fence. I'd like @LuckyHazelFox 's team to win, but I like mbappe. I'd like de champs to go out on a high after making the decision that's there's a personal life after football. And if course I'd love England to win overall so want what gives us the best chance.

sorry I've got to go now... I have splinters to attend to!!

I like the pitch

That’s all I have to say about the game so far 🤣

Well - did I manifest this? 😱

Ooh - interesting!

Yes

Have I missed the ad break?

🙈

He scuffed it after the long delay

Save!

Now I didn't bet Mbappé to score, I don't want him to score.

Damn.

Why did it take forever to 'check' a blatantly obvious penalty?

I hate it when they stutter in the run up

3 min and 12 seconds between the penalty being initially awarded and finally being taken. Ridiculous.

And then the stupid 'hydration' break.

My family are directly part French but I don’t want them to win. They’re insufferable.
