Allez les Bleus!

This W.C. has been unusual, to say the least. Might want to hold off the singing until Monday (HKG time)

Looking at the stats England have been pretty dismal so it should be a Belgian win with ease.

Somehow meaningless game. FIFA should scrap it Anyway congrats Belgium 3rd place & a good tournament for them; also England did pretty well. Best result since 1990 in Italy - staggering 28 years ago. EPL is the best & richest Football League on the planet - The last 8 or even better should be the minimum in the future. They dominated Croatia for quite some time - so a win was definitely possible in the Semifinal - but after the equaliser England had nothing left in the tank. I'm sure they will be bouncing back. Euro 2020 the next goal.

England will never have a clearer path to the finals in our lifetime than this W.C. That's gotta' sting.
