Round ball code talk

[Powerade 08]

Yea I think he gave him a little bump, plus he hooked Di Marias foot while he was falling to the ground, just to make sure of it. V unnecessary. This has been a nice surprise so far.

 

[Garibaldi Red]

Thought it was.
Looked like he clipped him from behind.
Argies dominating the ball. Well deserved second goal.

Yes, it has all been one way. Summed up from the kick off, a ball played out wide to a French player.in space, Fails to control a simple ball and it goes out for a throw.

 

[Powerade 08]

Mbappe has the first shot at goal (not on target) for France 70 minutes into the sawker match.

 

[Garibaldi Red]

What a turnaround

 

[Portology]

Hopefully an epic this morning. France to win it 3-2 by a penalty within normal time.

Now it's getting warm. My prediction still alive too

 

[Powerade 08]

lol. unfortunately they are just too shit.

 

[Burningleviathan]

Well so much for being able to going back to bed.
France brought on the speed. Too quick for Argentina the last half hour.

 

[Powerade 08]

Amazing Argentina survived that. Gonna be difficult for Messi and Di Maria to back it up in extra time

 

[Portology]

haha incredible

 

[Burningleviathan]

What a game. To penalties.
Devastating to whoever loses

 

[Burningleviathan]

Argentina!!
Wow! What an absolute classic of a match.
Happy for Messi
Devastated for Mpabbe. A hat-trick in a world cup final and you end up losing.

 

[Garibaldi Red]

Deserved winners. Dominated for 78 minutes before a huge comeback by France.

 

[Powerade 08]

Keeper was amazing. Got close to saving 2 of those Mbappe penalties as well.

 

[Harlott]

That last save in extra time by Argies goalie.

 

[El Zorro]

VAMOOOOOSSSSSS!

Brazilians during the match:

– Go, France! Get them, Mbappé, my man!!

Brazilians after the match:

– Hey, Mbappé! Why don't you say now that South American soccer is weaker than the European? Say it!!

And the Brazilians are absolutely right.

Congratulation to Argentina for the title. Well deserved!


I still blame Tite for it...

 

[GremioPower]

It was a final for the ages. It had it all.

 

[El Zorro]

It was a final for the ages. It had it all.

We should've put it away in the first half. But two things: 1) we have struggled to close games all tournament (except vs Croatia) and 2) Mbappe is an absolute superstar.

But the best team won in the final. We outplayed them and outcoached them (for most of the game!).

I still think the ref got the PK wrong, but Argentina was better from the start.

I thought all 3 penalties were there. Actually, one of the best referee performances I've seen in a long while.

GremioPower won't see it, he's got yellow and green glasses on (and not Aussie).
