    Mbappe was born into a talented country. That's like saying Kyrie is better than Luka cause he has an Olympic gold

    So lame. I had a chance to catch the game at the 60 minute mark but saw that Argentina was up 2-0 so I went back to bed. Woke up right as the game ended and had to catch up on YouTube TV.

    Emi Martinez was so important for Argentina tonight. He saved the game in extra time and he dominated the penalty shootout. I put a lot of the penalty result on Lloris. He admits that he's not good and he's right. For the next tourney I think France needs to look at replacing him.

    I would have given them the one in 2014, would have been a brand-new story.

    It is insanely difficult for a nation like Argentina to form a team like that than it is for France who get their players from former colonies.

    In the end, it's all good.

    Only way for Ronaldo to top Messi now is by winning a MLS cup

    if you believe the Uruguayans and their claim that their Olympic golds (lol) are the equivalent of world cups it is now the Americas 12 v Europe's 12

    Anyway, I hope to be around for the next world cup in USA/Mexico/Canada. Looking forward to that. I hope Germany can build a competitive team until then, to stop the Mbappé show. And I hope the USA and Mexico and Canada will both do well in that world cup, as host countries. Hard Rock Stadium is like half an hour from where I live. Hope to catch some matches.

    Wanted France to win as Argentinian players are shithousers that also benefitted from a very favourable whistle throughout the knockout phase. Extremely entertaining match nonetheless.

    They have one of the best goalkeepers in the world in Mike Maignan, but Deschamps was wary of replacing Lloris as he is the captain. And then Maignan got injured and removed any possible selection headaches.

    people starting arguments against mbappe? lol for **** sake he just had a hat trick at the world cup final. he was the best french player today as he was 4 years ago. he's a monster on that same level as messi and will no doubt dominate the next 10 years

    will he have a better national team career than most because he's french? yes but why would anyone hold that against him? i mean messi doesnt exactly come from el salvador or nicaragua

    celebrate greatness dont hate it
