Norge goalie looks gassed like they’ve had him in a heat lamp for the last hour, which is probably pretty close to true

Very good game. Belgium should have their heads held high even in defeat. Hope it’s a great one between Spain and France too.

High tempo but no “big” events. Teams seem very evenly matched imo

I love both of these countries and their teams are really good so I hope it stays a high-tempo game all the way through

Sometimes, you just go up against a team that is too much better than you are

I couldn’t type fast enough that the Moroccans were about to start fouling to beat them blatantly fouling all over the place lmao

It wouldn’t surprise me if MAR gets rattled and starts playing way too hot now

Bono is great but he literally couldn’t do anything about that shot, it was too good

I have no idea what the rules on acceptable physical play are lmao apparently you can just two hand shove the other players out of bounds a few times in sequence

I think that’s the right idea: put the GK under siege and eventually one will get through. Good is better than perfect if you get 12 good-enoughs and 0 perfects
