Croatia has more outright dislikable players - Lovren, Mandzukic, Vida etc and they are generally uglier and there's the whiff of fascism still around their football establishment so going with France although I hate Griezmann's fortnite dance and think most of the French team are planks so it's hard really.

Me neither. Hard to drum up any enthusiasm whatsoever tbh. Hoping for lots of shots of attractive women from the crowd - hopefully the Russian broadcaster can give us one last hurrah before that gets banned too.

Nah it’s France for me. I can’t abide fascism

Also I’m desperate to get photo of Olivier Giroud with the World Cup trophy so i can frame it and have it next to pictures of loved ones.

Giroud an excellent Wenger product ... just heard the commentator say he's played 400 minutes in the finals so far and hasn't had a shot on target . :laughing7: Pretty good going for a striker

Griezmann dives to win a free kick and the French go 1 up. Cheating bastards. Come on Croatia.

Correct decision this time that looked like a penalty.

Football hopefully evolves and speeds up the video review process. It slowed down the game initially in the NFL. Then they had referees who did nothing but immediately review questionable plays which rendered a decision in seconds. Not always but usually it kept the game moving.
This decision took too long but its early days getting used to the technology and incorparating it.

Croatia isnt afraid of them thats for sure. You gotta think France thought it was already a foregone conclusion and have to realize they have a fight on their hands.

Another 2 or 3 goals and a red card wouldnt surprise me.

Very odd. Four goals so far past one of the very best defenders in the world. How’s that Lovren?

Mourinho as he often does (Martial, Oscar) kills the confidence of good players. The French team got Pogba's confidence back. There was talk he was going to be sold but now Mourinho will probably keep him.

I’ve just seen that he is the first Premiership player to score in a World Cup Final since Manu Pettit.

They were tremendous. Lots went against them today and they kept on playing. Modric is a fantastic player.

I agree, Croatia should be proud of their World Cup. But ultimately France were the best side in the tournament and deserved their win. An exciting final that was a fitting end to a really entertaining event.

No more 3 goals have ever been scored in a WC final I think. No team has ever scored twice and lost obviously. This match broke a few records. I predicted 3-1 France before the game but have to hand it to the Croats. They fought and hopefully after it all settles in over time they will see they have nothing to be ashamed of and have every right to be proud.

But not clearly deliberate.

That's one of those borderline ones that should not be overturned.

Croatia were a bit careless at in the period before Mbape scored, but otherwise, it was a case of very very lucky French. It seemed like every time that had a shot (or not!) it flew in.

The Coatian keeper clearly had his lead boots on. Perhaps he planning a diving holiday and put on the wrong pair.

The Croatian passing and pressing was great to watch, so I'm glad it didn't end 4-1.

Harry Kane announced as Golden Boot winner, and booed heartily by the Croatian and the French fans. It's really nice how England brings people together.

I feel for Croatia. I started off wanting France to win but by halftime my fickle allegience had switched to Croatia who were playing really well. Nothing went for them today, Lloris clanger aside, but they battled on a deserved better.

I wanted Croatia to win but would have been happy with France winning it. As it turned out, Croatia played some very good stuff and France were very lucky. I hope Deschamps steps down and France get a manager who will really let these players loose.

Pleased in the end France one. Nobody’s favourite team outside France really but they provided some good games and moments and beat good opposition. Croatia just not very likeable, ground out results, and Lovren is an almighty wanker.
