Playing the second string -_-

That's any momentum we've had now gone, overthinking it to give everyone play time or to finish in a certain place in the group to potentially avoid more difficult opponents never works, exhibit A - Iceland.

I’m shocked by that team selection. I can totally understand it though... we’ll see if it backfires

Looks like both teams are using a bunch of reserves??

Should still be an exciting match

I think it's horseshit tbh. You're basically admitting you're not good enough and need favourable draws.

Should have gone out full strength, put these fake frenchies to the sword and moved on.
