No, must admit I only saw the drunk part - busy anticipating the end of a long week!

Brazil - Belgium (world cup soccer)
What will be the outcome?
Here, it's one of the most anticipated matches since, well since before I was born
In any case, it should be a promising match and we will not go down without a fight.
My guess
Brazil - Belgium
2 - 3

Before the World Cup, I predicted that Belgium would win it. I'm still on track for that being an accurate guess.

3-2 to Belgium.

It's going to be a tough one, there is no obvious winner.
But your guys are playing like a team for the first time since very long.
So now is the time to go far I suppose.

I just hope that they don't start with Sterling or Vardy. Subs fine but not the starting line-up.

Sorry,
Not exactly accurate, we went down twice but not without a fight first.
The jerries were far too strong though so down we went.
Mind you: we are doing better than them this time.

Indeed.It He is also the best player, though.

He's always been slightly over-rated in my book, certainly never quite in the same inter-galactic-hyper-league as Messi or Ronaldo.
I think this World Cup will be remembered as the one where we first saw Kylian Mbappe - that boy is something truly special.

Quote: He's always been slightly over-rated in my book, certainly never quite in the same inter-galactic-hyper-league as Messi or Ronaldo. I don't think so. Maybe Messi and Ronaldo are better but not that much better.
Quote: I think this World Cup will be remembered as the one where we first saw Kylian Mbappe - that boy is something truly special. He enjoys the surprise effect. Neymar is carefully and 'affectionately' attended by many defenders.
BTW so, in your opinion, France will outclass Uruguay, won't it?

Fair point, though I'm not sure that Mbappe will be treated as a surprise for any longer - they'll all be trying to kick lumps out of him from now on (especially Uruguay). Not sure how many will be fast enough or good enough to get that close to him, though!
It's a real pain that the France v Uruguay has to be on during work hours (especially as I originally had the day booked of as holiday)
