France looking very strong, aside from that ridiculous simulation from Mbappe.

This semifinal is gonna be awesome. Whether is Belgium or Brazil.

I've always hated France, but their team is pretty loaded.  It's a shame one side of the bracket is so stacked and the other side is relatively weak.

Neymar flopping all over the place and getting zero calls. Love it.

Belgium vs. France. I work for a Belgian owned company, the owner also owns a soccer club in France, the head guy in our office is French.

i hope I don’t need any support from overseas because 80% of the company is in France or Belgium and they’re going to be wasted until Wednesday.

No shocker that Europe is dominating this World Cup.   I believe the same shit happened last time the WC was in Europe.

Belgium has been probably the best team all tournament. Fellani getting the start vs England has worked out well, as he is now starting for them, and allows De Bruyne to be even better than he already was. Crazy talented side. 

France has looked better and better each game. This Semifinal could be an all timer. I think both teams are gonna attack.

I’m going England and Croatia tomorrow. No way Russia can win again, right?

Not if Rakitić and Modrić keep playing like this. And I kinda expect a big game from Mandžukić

If Croatia can take care of Russia, we will have a great set of Semis and a great Final.

This World Cup is insane. Missing the goal completely on a pk at this level is embarrassing

The World Cup is over, so my social media feeds will have 98% fewer soccer posts to sift through until the next one starts and people go back to pretending they care about it for a few weeks!

Croatia would’ve presented even more problems, imo. That team is poised to make a deep run. Midfield is arguably the best in the world.

I like France to win, but admittedly hate that they are the “darkhorse” now.

Pretty accurate.

Just because we disagree on Ronaldo and Messi and which one is the best ever vs second best ever doesn’t mean I didn’t predict a great World Cup. Got 14/16 teams right to advance and then had a great bracket.

I’m just messing with you man lol had nothing to  do with Ronaldo/Messi. It just seemed like I got on here and saw 4 or 5 straight predictions from you that turned out to be wrong. I’m giving you props now for finally getting one right lol.
