France wins 2-0. They are through. Albania’s stay will be short.
I wonder if there is a possibility a team can advance in 3rd place with 3 points. It seems possible but maybe I’m way wrong.
You kiddin? I was defensive MVP every year I played. I whooped serious ass. I'm like a force of freaking nature.
The irony is that at least in Football we score. Not so with soccer!
Perfect description!
There will be 3rd place teams in the final 16, so I would say yes it’s possible. So I suppose technically Albania are still in it.
There was a time when Soccer was a much more rough sport than it is now.
Stuff that gets a red card today weren’t even called as a foul until probably late in the 70s. But watch old English First Division matches from the early 70s, it’s was pretty brutal.
So what if soccer is not as regimented and armied like American football? Neither is tennis, swimming, basketball, baseball and most other sports. Bowling?
I agree scoring is difficult in soccer. Un-American, I say . . . we need “combat.” Brought to us by Cialis every five minutes.
