Would you rather play Belgium or France?

I think we stand a better chance against France.

That's assuming we beat Croatia.

Thought KDB was going to bury that. I can see Belgium taking this to extra time.

Too many defenders in the way, had to miss-hit it to get it on target and get lucky, I think you're right about extra time though and hopefully a few injuries.......

Belgium are getting twitchy. They need to stave off the panic mode.

If we do manage to get past Croatia which is a big IF, neither of these teams have shown that they would give us a pasting. And in tight games, anyone can win.

And we are down to just 3 teams left at the 2018 World Cup.

France, Croatia and ENGLAND.

Assuming we can beat Croatia, I think we can win this, France didn't do anything to frighten us.
