Euro 2016 - Group A - Cuisine de France vs The Home of Dracula

Arghus

Whenever they show a close up of Kante he looks like he's realised he has left the iron on at home or forgot to lock the front door, or maybe both.

That_Guy

Damn you Giroud!!

El Chapo

There won't be a red rose sold outside the local nightclub for a month if Romania nick this.

Arghus

Giroud getting his first miss out the way early.

Three more of those and a goal will be on the cards.

Mars Bar

Romania can fairly zip the ball around

HardenendMan

Tut checked the soccer forum to see if the hottie thread was in full flow and nada.

Angron

Romania not doing too badly really, though it helps that the French are looking a bit shaky.

Bloody hell, off the post!

That_Guy

France have really settled into the game. They're really having the luck with second balls bouncing in their favour.

Mars Bar

That was so close!

And, judging by your username, you were ready to go and everything.

Rayne Wooney

Didn't take long for Giroud to make me regret putting him in my bets

Vicxas

Romania playing some nice football

Paully D

"Kante has won the ball back for France".

That'll be up there for most used saying when all is said and done.

That_Guy

Kante and Pogba are such a dynamic partnership in midfield.

Drexel

Good game this

Drexel

Used to always buy the Romanian left back in Football manager.

Haha! I'll have to change my name to FloppyMan if the hottie thread doesn't improve!

How offside was giroud there?

Nerdlingr

Fair play to Romania, they haven't played it back to the keeper once yet when their defenders have been in possession. Always looking for the forward pass. Great to see.

Straight Edge Punk

Pogba is so superior to every midfielder on the planet it's not even funny.

Mars Bar

I like this Romanian teams style

That_Guy

Putting Giroud as 1st goalscorer. I'd see more returns if I invested in a fúcking boomerang.

Don't talk about leaving the Iron on, my was on for 2 days fecking lucky guy

dfx-

a frantic pace so far, neither side look much in control. Pogba very hit and miss.

IamtheWalrus

Ya'll watching this at home? I am.

Were you transformed into an all action midfielder during those two days?

I've been pleasantly surprised with them. Not just sitting back

Rayne Wooney

Good game, the Romanians are decent

Angron

More than a little hopeful there from Pogba.

Anyone else see the advertising board with "McDonalds Player Escorts"?

Good way to boost morale I suppose!

De Gea a shareholder.

Irish_rat

They're missing the quality of a certain Madrid player.

Giroud is too slow for such a quick team

ShaunC

Pogba wants to be the star of the show

Arghus

Giroud being very Giroudy at the moment.

That_Guy

Romania are very well organised but they're not quick enough to break. Aimless balls to nobody in the box when they get the ball.

They need to use Giroud right. Use him to bounce balls off and bring the midfield up the pitch instead of playing balls in behind.

Been a little disappointed with the French tbh

That_Guy

Griezmann having a great game both attacking wise and defensively.

Arghus

Rami looks like a bundle of nerves whenever he's on the ball.

~Rebel~

What the French would give for a more dynamic centre forward option. Playing some really nice football at times, but it just doesn't suit Giroud.

Oof, decent chance for Greizmann there.

That_Guy

Pointless having the lads behind the goal if they can't even see that that should have been a corner for France. Joke.

GreNoLi

Love how expressive Payet's game is, never shirks trying something unconventional.

IamtheWalrus

Is it possible to stream RTE in the UK? I fancy a bit of 'ah hang on der Bill'.

Harry Angstrom

The only chance of Romania scoring will be French incompetence.

GreNoLi

Peno?

How did he not get a free for that

It's Darragh these days, sadly. It's not the same.
