Got to love African teams. They just don't like holding back. This has been the best match of the Round of 16 so far. No signs of caution and dread of making a mistake to concede a goal here.
Nigeria needs to sort out their left side. Wide open.
Giroud 😆
Everything Benzema has touched so far has spectacularly turned to shit
Nailed on to score then
Enyeama is #kwalitee
Nigeria look more threatening
Good half so far.
It's a game of power, pace and skill.
We can hold our own.
Now if France went technical, slowed down the pace, and played a bit more deliberately, it would be a different ball game entirely.

I find that quip offensive to my people.
Many Irish are leprechauns.
Nigeria are making a lot of mistakes though Flobs, need to relax a bit.

Enyeama is boss. Great gk and seems like top bloke.
Read in the other thread Debuchy was good in attack
@[deleted]: Yep, but we'll always make little errors.
Not tactically organized enough.
France don't look like capitalizing though.
Giroud with a couple of brilliant passes...
France has opportunities, but no conversions with a clumsy Giroo and an average Benzema...
Giroud has been extremely poor.
Giroud's lack of quality so apparent in that half. Still better than Benzema
Giroud playing like a fool. He's going to score a header now
Giroud is just not very good.
Pogba needs to be more selfish when he makes those drives forward. Both CFs not reading his passes. Evra is a complete liability and shoulda given Nigeria a peno for blatant manhandling.
Giroud is shocking
