Don't watch the World Cup!!! Boycott it!! Um... why?

[McSwede]

Can’t believe Argentina lost their lead, they looked on course for a very solid win

France have been awful but wow, how quick things have changed around. The finish for the equaliser was outstanding!

[Mito Man]

Yep, France have been shit for the whole match bar 10 minutes total. Then again I thought France were the weaker team against England too.

[Gavster]

Argentina need to play on an other level for 10 mins now

[dinny_g]

WHAT… A… GAME!!!

[Mito Man]

The better team won that.

[Gavster]

That was absolutely insane, what an incredible game!

[DaveE]

That was great!

[dinny_g]

Best final I’ve ever watched - best since 82

[IanF]

Bloody hell! Messi’s goal in the penalty shootout..

I think the better team won, but France should be proud of their team.

[DaveE]

What's with the negligée they made Messi wear?

[Gavster]

That final shows why England never win these tournaments. Both Argentina and France had real tenacity and resilience which meant they stepped up and fought harder when it mattered.

[Mito Man]

What's with the negligée they made Messi wear?

He’s officially a wizard now.

I wondered if Ann Summers was a co-sponsor...

I have zero interest in football but I was still invested in that. Why didn't the French mbop fella take all the kicky shoots?

[Ascender]

That was a brilliant match, probably the best ever final I’ve seen and Messi has done it, so its one of those perfect endings I guess.

[Broccers]

I loved all of this tournament. Absolutely perfect for winter with minimal impact on domestic football.
Great final. Great fun.

Win.

I have only a slight passing interest. Started watching it about 70min and thought Argentina would coast to a 2-0 win...then watched in amazement as France/Mbappe pulled it back to equal within the course of a few minutes. Was actually an enjoyable match to watch!

Great to see Messi and Argentina pull it together for this one, it looked from previous world cups like it might never happen for Messi.
