For fantasy purposes, the game for 3rd place is a good one.
I'd get make sure of having a goalkeeper for saturday and one for sunday, in case the first one doesn't come back with a clean sheet.
I had forgotten about Trippier captaining my team. I spent the late stages of the semi wishing for Rakitic to score, as I thought I had finally named him as captain.
Croatia winning would be very good considering their tournament.
The French side had a poor start in the group stages. I'd be glad France wins, mind, but, well...
This said, paying attention to the local media, sports journalists keep on regretting the French ain't a nation that responds to football. No real signs of joy everywhere.
I'm not a crowd people so I watched the game in my apartment, not in a pub or wherever.
I've heard a honk here and there, nothing more. I live in the fringes of a 8000 people town.
I have colleagues from the Netherlands who confirm the French can't seem to care less.
Besides "we" have already won one. And lost another one.
Not sure what I'm trying to say.
