I've said it before: Defensive football is part of the game. I welcome it. I love the tactical aspect of destroying. However, I don't believe this France side is so good that it was required here. This is France, not Spain.
Edit: Debuchy was a bright spot in this snooze fest.

England France was quite boring. I also agree with trunks. My favorite part about watching the Italian's play is their organization in the back. We would watch video's as kids of their zone defense scheme's when we learned how to run it. Their lines, shape, everything is impeccable. So I love good defense but Italy at least would counter attack. England just sat back there and did nothing.....not my favorite thing to watch.
I also don't know if its just me....but when they announce the commentators for the game I PRAY the game I want to see doesn't have Kasey Keller calling it. He is absolutely terrible as a commentator. I used to think Alexi Lalas was bad but Keller is way worse. I understand you hate "simulation" but when a dude gets hacked and you say...."that really wasn't a foul he didn't get hit that hard"...bro....he got fouled....regardless of how hard it was....it is still a foul please shut up.
I hate Germany but I like Ballack as a analyst. He gives great insight.
You guys must be like 15 years old. England has been playing that type of football even when Alan Shearer and Bobby Moore were on the team. That is why only Americans and some Africans who have a rooting interest in a player watch English Football . There was an article is a soccer journal that asked why we (americans) follow english football but yet we dont like defense. It basically summed it up as being a language and race issue.Originally Posted by Jking0821
