You just watched Argentina almost lose to the smallest country ever in the WC and now you are bailing on Paraguay? Shame.

Its going to be interesting to see if Paraguay can be defensive and try to have at least a few chances to score.

Not a great game from France, Paraguay really held their own defensively

Yeah Paraguay knew what to do; the french were very nervous and they finished the game in a very awful manner ( mbappe not looking at Gil when he was about to Shake hands with him )

Morocco is a pretty good rival next

I hate the penalty box rule as well. In the dumb nba, at least the player has to be shooting to get free throws. I wish in soccer a legitimate scoring chance being taken away lead to a penalty kick. This guy was heading away from the net. I also wish the player fouled had to take the pk rather than the best player on the team.

Thought France would put the guays away a little more convincingly. Too close for comfort!

Morocco is very good. Canada is toast.

They've done amazingly well, tho.

England will not be in the semis. They’ll likely not survive today.
