Game # 10 - France vs Honduras
Sadly this was the game at its worst - a grumpy spiteful game with one Honduran player sent off and 6 yellow cards handed out. At times there were more bodies on the ground than upright and the referee very nearly lost control, particularly after the Pogba/Palacios incident. Just add to that the very epitome of how NOT to use technology to review on-field decisions and it became an ugly, awkward mix. The scoreline was very flattering for the French (3-0) and I am sure that the Hondurans feel that it should have been 1-0 for all their effort. However, the French were harsh in front of goal and the Hondurans weren't. You don't win World Cup games by doing that.
