France vs. Mexico

[yello]

Not sure it's a game for Henry. He's too slow these days. Besides, France are loosing it in the middle. But if so, I'd expect Gignac to make way.

Not watching at the mo .

But if Henry is on .France will find that handy .He was a good player once .

game over

Blanco! Woo-hoo

 

[darkstar]

BOOOOOM!

I reckon that's France on the way home. Should have changed the manager after 2008. They looked dated then and they haven't learned from it. Null points.

Mexico are the deserved winners. Cracking game and hopefully not quite over yet.

Exhibition stuff now from Mexico!

Btw, you're probably not aware but Anelka is playing.

Great stylish win from Mexico - they are looking good, perhaps even semi-finals good.

My Dad, who's lived in France for the last 15 years, just sent me a text - I think I got the idea but I can't repeat it on a family forum.

The Guardian commentary is pretty forthright about France:

"Their manager is an idiot and almost to a man, their players are a disgrace to their country."
