France vs Albania - Group A Match #3 - Match Thread

[Muddled]

A minutes applause for a double murder.

Game on.

[Muddled]

Evra carrying on in the form he finished in against Romania.

[Muddled]

Payet's definitely going to go full Neil Shipperly when he retires from football.

[ChesterDave]

France are poor. No way they should be amongst the favourites.

[Muddled]

Albania are surely going to tire? They're covering so much ground and running around like a team of energetic primary kids. Playing the Gaelic Crouch up top certainly doesn't help France and Matuidi hasn't had the best of starts to the tournament.

[ChesterDave]

Martial is terrible. Evra is terrible. Can see France losing this.

[ChesterDave]

2 more instances of ****ness from Martial.

[Muddled]

I'm no lip reader, but Deschamps just said 'for ****'s sake, Martial'

[Muddled]

A well worked corner routine from Albania. Unlucky.

[ChesterDave]

Add Matuidi to the crap list. Too many passengers in this French team.

Great half by Albania - I'm shocked that they've had so much of the ball in dangerous areas. France have got Kante and Payet and er....

[Chazza]

France will get an arse kicking bring on Griezmann and Pogba and win the game.

My boys have been triffic.

[Chris]

Two dreadful sides. Can't believe th Hodge has convinced the country a QF would be a miracle performance, this tournament is a very low standard this time.

[ChesterDave]

Can any Frenchman head a ball? That's the fourth or fifth that's gone 10 yards over

[redmike65]

Gignac is on.
