Soon, Belgium's got to deal with France in a few hours and then clobber another country. It'll be over soon :D

Vive La France! Je suis desolee Belquique...
It's make or break for England tomorrow, apparently
Me, I'm off kayaking for the evening, enjoying the summer weather and having a beach BBQ in the sun, not indoors watching the football :p

No problem, it wasn't my fault and I don't really care that much about soccer anyway. It would have been cool to see our tiny country score top notch on the trifecta (beer, "french" fries and soccer). But our team got farther than they ever did in recent, relatable history.

I, too, was rooting for Belgium yesterday. Although I admire his skill, there was some silly time-wasting stunt Mbappé pulled toward the end that made me a little upset. Usually I see good sportsmanship from him. Heck, I am an (Irish/Scottish) Canadian and Italian national, I have no dog in the race - and Italy didn't get to the track - so, I was, as a non-soccer (or foooooootball) fan, going full underdog.

I hope Croatia makes history. So, 1:1 in regular 90-minutes and 2:1 the final score.

Go Croatia!

Thanks ! Apparently we did deserve the podium finish if we beat England, again. We'll soon know who is the world champion team.

Congrats to @GuilleAcoustic and all the other French SFF'ers for the victory of the French soccer team ! A well-deserved championship title !

Now I can get back to completely not care about soccer for 4 years, instead of this 2% level of interest.

Not exactly 4 years. Though not as big as World Cup, football at Summer Olympics cuts the period down to 2 years.
