Yuck. I was just reminded about the importance of electricity in our current society when some mishap brought down all the electricity in my quarter of the town for almost an hour -_-

At least there was no goal yet in the France-Albania match that I have missed ^^

^Albania just scored from a free kick

France looking pretty mediocre so far.

by Adit Wed Jun 15, 2016 8:52 pm

What a boring game. Somebody buy France a playmaker. Anything will do, Moutinho,Ander Herrera, xakha,... Anything lol

Matuidi has been quite bad. Pogba needed

by Zlatan Wed Jun 15, 2016 8:56 pm

Same issue as in the previous game against Romania, Matuidi and kante shouldn't be playing alongside each other.

Martial should be coming off at HT

by S Wed Jun 15, 2016 8:56 pm

Poor game from France so far.No good passers in their team right now.

Payet looking mediocre in the AM role.

Sounds like I haven't missed too much, have I?

by Glory Wed Jun 15, 2016 8:57 pm

Matuidi's positional sense in this game. :facepalm:

Almost all of Albania's counter attacks are coming through that channel. Where the fk is Matuidi going all the time.
As much i hate to say it, Pogba needed.

Apart from the anthems, nothing much.

Its a good game. Gritty performance from Albania who have caused a few problems for that French defense but better end product would help.

Visibly clear,without Pogba and Griezmann,there's a downgrade in the team's quality.

by S Wed Jun 15, 2016 9:03 pm

Pogba is coming on for Martial

by S Wed Jun 15, 2016 9:05 pm

Coman almost scored

by Zlatan Wed Jun 15, 2016 9:13 pm

Albania hit the post! Can't say it is a boring match anymore

by windkick Wed Jun 15, 2016 9:21 pm

Albania isn't *bleep* around here

by Lucifer Wed Jun 15, 2016 9:21 pm

Coman ffs

by Zlatan Wed Jun 15, 2016 9:23 pm

As much as Albania's defensive structure has to be praised, France aren't trying anything special.

by danyjr Wed Jun 15, 2016 9:59 pm

Feel sorry for Albania. Lost two games where they deserved draws at.

by RealGunner Wed Jun 15, 2016 9:59 pm

Albania were quite resolute.

by RealGunner Wed Jun 15, 2016 10:00 pm

Payet MOTM

by windkick Wed Jun 15, 2016 10:00 pm

Albania can go home with there head held high. They played a hell of a 2 games so far. I applaud there effort

by sportsczy Wed Jun 15, 2016 10:03 pm

PTB tactics are fantastic until you concede... so it looks great as long as you don't concede early.

France was experimenting in the first half and went back to its base players and system in the 2nd half and it showed.

i hate.... and I mean HATE... teams that only worry about defending and don't give a rat's arse about playing football. Those Italy teams that used this defensive tactic were LETHAL on the counter attack. This crap is bs.

by juvealbanian Wed Jun 15, 2016 10:06 pm

We were so fukin unlukcy in both gamed.We ain't a great team but for the spirit we put on the field we deserved at least 2 points Sad

by Freeza Wed Jun 15, 2016 10:11 pm

I actually don't think Albania parked the bus in the first half. They were great there. Neutralized France in a positive way. They wanted to secure a result and went defensive and parked it.

Not like Iceland yesterday where they really parked the bus to the full extent.
