Just two hours for the first semifinal's kick off. I must acknowledge I feel a bit nervous. Most likely because we all know the rival we have ahead: Mbappe's France along with his friends Olise, Dembele, Doue, Barcola,...
Our players look confident but I am sure they feel the pressure. We don't know the line ups yet though Spain will pick a very similar team as everyone looks fit.
Perhaps our main plan is to get the ball and avoid losing it in the middle of the field allowing fast attacks from France. It's easy to say though I am sure it will not.
If we manage to hide the ball and move around the French team we could have an option.
It's the second time we reach semifinals. It's the eighth time for France.
Stackers participating in our pool are supporting France (7 vs 5).
It's going to be a thrilling one.
Enjoy!
A good performance from Spain – congratulations on the win.
I completely agree; it’ll be a tough match. I’m backing Spain in this one, but we must bear in mind that France are a very dangerous side.
Exactly as I predicted. Spain's defense is too good. Only Messi magic can possibly stop them from winning the cup.
Congrats @Carresan
Watching France lose is one of life's small reliable pleasures
They looked like as an average team in La Liga! Hahaha. Best match in a long time, similar to semifinal we won in South Africa.
So happy for you
It was a master class, you have France number and mbappe never won over Lamine
Brasil 2 cups in 3 finals is preserve, thank you Spain
Now go win it all
Thanks! Every step at its time. Players were happy but cautious at the same time. We need to recover and face the next challenge. I am sure it will be difficult though this group is great.
Haha it is quite fun.
Thanks! We played as a team!
Messi magic has been rather quiet as of late -.-
Everyone I work with seem to be cheering for France, which is just downright unamerican if you ask me.
Yes, I understand it. They've been playing really well. I assume we are the underdogs today.
Yeah, I think it’s about 2:1
Saving the distances, I hope we can repeat what Norway did to Brazil.
And down go the cowardly French!
Aaaand, let's not forget, Den's chances of winning the overall Stacker_sports tournament.
If you hitch your wagon to Vikings and frog-eaters, that's what happens!
We all understand backing your brethren, but why throw in with the French?
Eh, not very strongly at all: I liked how the played in some of the games I watched... Olise-Mbappe magic was wonderful to behold
Yesssssssss!
Ah music to my ears. What a good day that was
We did it! What a night!
Incredible! Congrats.
Out of nowhere, an underperforming Spanish team shows up and lectures the proud, French favourites.
Pride cometh before fall, etc.Pride cometh before fall, etc.
Thanks! A big step forward. Tomorrow, I will watch the match sooooo relaxed..
More American territory used to be French than Spanish, no...?
Are you counting Canada?
I wasn't but that certainly would strengthen my case
The territorial claim might be larger, I don't know, but the French presence was never anything like the Spanish or British. Other than New Orleans, the French territory was sparsely speckled with small forts and outposts.
England fan here. I'm hoping Spain win today. I just don't love watching France play – I'm probably biased. I'd also rather England play Spain in the final, if we manage to beat Argentina. Spain are good, always good, but not at their best right now, in my opinion.
Thanks! Hoping to play against you on Sunday too!
Now I'm not so keen on the idea. Spain were great last night, congrats!
All the best for tonight!
Are you ready for this big match?
Yes! Can't wait!
France 🇫🇷 all the way!!
Wishing you luck today!
I'm rooting for Spain, but France is probably gonna win. Good luck!
Thanks!!
oh, this is incredible.
One semi and a final left, three teams to go. And all of us genius betters at @Team_Predyx have traded the prices for the contracts to... checks notes... ~one-third each!
Oh man. Either it's a wide-open goal(?) or we really don't have any edge/clue whatsoever.
