[Jack the Stripper]

Yeah, it's fair to say the four consistently best teams throughout this World Cup are into the last four.

What a thriller indeed!

So happy to see Croatia make it...

Honestly based on what I've seen in this tournament so far I'm happy to see anyone of the final 4 take the prize home!

France vs Belgique


The key to Victory: Hazard, Lukaku and De Bruyne must be blocked and Deschamps knows the solution.
... and Thibaut Courtois must be shortened by at least 25 cm !!
It will be a very strong match.
Can't wait !

The first of the semi finals today, Belgium vs France.

I don't mind who wins, the girlfiend would like it to be Belgium as she has them in the works sweep stake!

I think this could be a high scoring draw (2-2 AET) and will be decided on penalties.

Very very exciting match ahead that is for sure.

France has just upped their game with every single match...they are without a doubt at their best since 2000....BUT will it be enough against Belgium who has also proven that they are at the top of their game as well?

Belgium's defence was horrible during the Japan match and nearly incredible during the Brazil match...so if they can keep that up it'll be hard for Mbappe, Giroud and Griezmann to score.

This could honestly go either way but I personally just enjoy Belgium's active offence playing just a tad bit more so I'd like to see them win.

Yeah flip of the coin match tonight.

A Belgium Croatia final would be a great story though...I hope it eventuate's!

Question of the day: Will Thierry Henry sing La Marseillaise while sitting on the Belgian bench during the playing hymns ?

I 'll go for France 2 - 1 Belgium
Final : France - England

I gotta say it would be sort of very cool to see France vs England in the finals...

0-0 at the half, but it's definitely been a fun 0-0 to watch. Whichever team tires first will be the loser.

Good first half! Good goalies from both teams are the only reason why numbers are still 0-0....

[Zzzptm]

Tyr66 must be very happy right about now. France up a goal, doing some solid work on the field.

[Jack the Stripper]

I got up to watch the last 20 minutes and all I'm seeing are Frenchmen diving and flopping all over the place 

[Zzzptm]

France got the win, so they go on to the final. Well done, France!

[Charger]

Congrats to France!!

They played well and it looked like Belgium kind of lost their momentum after that 1-0 hit...

Based on this match the better team won.

Well England has to win now to set up a classic rivalry final. Well done France. I'm still alive although Belgium was a slightly better result for me...
