Day Nine - Switzerland v France

Pre-Match Thoughts
Both teams won their first games, so a loss here isn't total disaster as both will fancy their chances of winning their last games. 

It's not hard to imagine this game being dragged into stalemate by two teams not quite willing to give it 100% when it's not totally essentially. That said, best to top the group and (probably) avoid Argentina in the next round. 

In what I am sure is becoming a source of much comedy for anyone who has read all these so far, this particular hipster tipster goes for 3-1 to France. 

So, expect 5-0 to Switzerland then.

Drink?
More Red Bull!

First Half
France are clearly not fucking about and want that top spot. Three up at half time, and they made a mess of penalty too. It's all one way traffic, which doesn't make for an exciting game.

Second Half
Plenty of goals in the second half, with France opting to take the piss slightly by strolling into a five goal lead. They went to sleep then, allowing the Swiss to pull two back, with the second being a very good finish. Still, the French are looking unified and a threat. 

Result
France win 5-2.
