​Yeah, Uruguay and Brazil out. Brazil's team reached its limit.

Congrats to the french and belgian people in this site. For tomorrow I guess that Russia and England will pass.

Same. In reality, I believe England and Croatia will pass, but given Russia are the hosts... a lot will vary and the game is extremely unpredictable. On one side, Russia may pass through with a surprise and well-organised strategical win. On the other side, Croatia is stronger and they might scatter Russia like Germany did to Brazil. My bet is on Russia advancing barely through a late goal, extra time or penalties. Best of luck to both sides!

What to say, all the players showed, ahead of Croatia, we see in Moscow in the semi-finals.
Silver coins were among the first coins ever used, thousands of years ago. The silver standard was used for centuries in many places of the world. And the use of silver for coins, instead of other materials, has many reasons.

I don't have a dog in the fight, but going on whose coins I like best I'm going to be cheering for Belgium ;)

​New way to pick a favourite team :O

Thanks for the support, we can use all the extra fans we can get, also from down under!
Just call me Bram

No new swaps for the moment, still too many half-ongoing swaps to clean up!

Have thoroughly enjoyed the world cup so far, Happy to see my country (England) finally performing well after such a long drought. I hope we meet France in the final :) I'm sure we'd lose, but it'd still be fun.

​I am not for either one, so hoping for some nice Football, but France's anti football last night, hmm.

I am glad Belgians lost though :D

Now I am still supporting Croatia, but if they'd lose tonight, then I am just for the football!

If the question was directed at me, I honestly don't care enough about football to support either side, but I'm leaning towards France; I know next to nothing about football, but I've been hearing a lot (from French sources, admittedly) about how French players and the team are supposedly really good, compared to the team that hasn't won since 1966. :°

I never thought that England would get this far with a young squad and little experience but they've done their country proud and they have more than fulfilled the fan's expectations, however if I had to put money on it France would be the best bet.​

​You can continue to support Croatia in the final.

The English are young, but the Croatian are old but experienced, so they showed them how to play, fight and believe in themselves.

Interesting tournament, I wonder how many would have picked a France/Croatia final before the tournament began.

Before I saw the ​link I imagined that this was the French Tricolour with the Russian flag turned 90':

-French = obvious
-Russian = turn picture 90' anti-clockwise (excluding the red)(8

Or alternatively could this be the new Russian flag after a Napoleonic style French invasion?8)
