Group G thread (France, Switzerland, Korea Republic, Togo)

[aussie1st]

France score their first goal since the 98 World Cup final!
But Korea hit back with the equaliser in the 82nd minute. Full time score remained 1-1. This group is wide open now, Korea would be favrouite to move onto the next round.

After the 1-1 finally the match started to swing. Great match to see then, but the French coach should have put some attacking players after the 1-1. Not bringing Trezeguet in the 90th minute.

I wonder if it's a coincidence that Korea ALWAYS gets these non-goal decisions to go their way. 1 today and 3 vs. Spain in 2002. Match fixing perhaps?

Regardless, France let up at the end and didn't deserve to win anyways.

for that to happen france would have to win against togo by a huge goal difference

Zidane will also miss next match , oh lord.

Does that sound like a problem to anyone? Start Trezeguet and Henry and the goals should follow. No more dinking around in the midfield - play direct and the goals will flow like water .

 

[ZexyZahid]

Adibal and Zidane won't play next match. And I hope for a change Trezeguet will start instead of Wiltord.

 

[usy]

edgarisapimp I love you for that,

Well assuming Switzerland beat Togo. Also I don't think S Korea and Switzerland would feel that safe going for a draw in their final game with France playing Togo.

 

[hondeyho]

Well if Switzerland beat Togo today and then there is a winner in the South Korea vs Switzerland match then all France have to do is win - couldn't be simpler

 

[usy]

Win by 2 Goals that mad guy said. but it's easy I think Henry will socre the 2 goals against Togo, well hope so.

 

[m_vaughan]

If Korea and Switzerland draw their game, then even if France win, all teams will be level on points. So goal difference is important!

 

[aussie1st]

France will need to start scoring a lot more goals if they want to get through. Their goal scoring in this and last World Cup has been very poor for a side with so many good attackers.

 

[cric_craze]

Switzerland and Korea both have 4 points. They face each other so who ever loses will get out of the group matches because France will win and will get 5 points . while the losing team will have 4 points. So we haven't seen the last of Zidane . Though we might see the last of Zidane against Spain.
