    Well after that goal save, he may be right. Come on Romania.

    I see Roland is No 3 for Romania.

    Open start to the game. Romania in a standard 4-2-3-1. France in a fluid 4-1-2-3, with Payet & Greizmann in free roles either side of Giroud at CF. France already look shaky on corners. The Romanian B4 playing a high line at times and vulnerable to quick direct play.

    At least we know China's number one tv brand.

    This French side play some nice football. Hope we see Pogba in the Premiership next season.

    Bit short on gratuitous shots of attractive female fans so far. Hope that improves!

    Bit of a lull in the game. If you download the official song, you can win tickets to the final and meet David Guetta.

    Not sure if meeting M. Guetta is compulsory but it's put me right off the idea.

    Payet and Greizmann are causing problems with their movement, popping up on the same flank on occasions. But the French system looks very open and they allow space for the opposition to play. Evra has been done 1v1 on a couple of occasions and Rami looks panicky when isolated. A better team than Romania will take advantage of the space they are allowing.

    Blatant pen... Surprised it took him so long to decide (Although at least he made the right call).

    Poor pen though, would have been saved easily had Lloris gone the right way

    Nick Pope would have saved it.

    Good refereeing tonight... No way was that a pen for Giroud!!

    Although when two players are holding each other like that maybe both teams should get a penalty!!

    I know it's a cliche but shows there are very few easy games in the tournaments these days.

    Very surprised Martial didn't start.
