They couldn't. France are compact and balanced - Brazil play their own game and neglect defence too often.
Basically, Brazil allowed Belgium to expose their weaknesses, just like Germany did. They learned nothing in four years.

Martinez just lamenting that a piece was the difference between the teams. Pity he didn't practice them a Everton ( allegedly) might of got to the final.
The 3 at the back is never gonna work for me. Hazard can't be messed about like that.

Leighton Van Damme up to no good again.

They’ve looked facourites to me throughout the whole World Cup, but I think they’re beatable.
France should have scored 2 or 3 tonight.
Belgium’s big players didn’t turn up.
Their golden generation in danger of blowing it.

It's the strikers instinct. Rom hasn't got it....yet. he has many years to get it still but now he is at United he really needs to start working on getting to the level that buries those chances.

Will be a tough game if IF we get through tomorrow (apologies to my fellow England fans for the pessimism)
I only watched the second-half. Fancied Belgium to win but De Bruyne, Hazard and Lukaku just were'nt at the races.

Frenchies doing the Poznan. I thought war had been declared.
Croatia's midfield can compete with France's. Problem is Croatia has no one that can score. England have a few players that can produce moments of magic. It would be interesting to watch
