Goal for Argentina?
Yes. Messi scored.
It is over and is it over...
Did Jenas mutter offside there?
Nice to see the watch actully flashing green for goal.
Upamecano finally decides to show up. 2 great interventions in that first half of ET!
GOAT does it again !!!!
Purely because Argentina are celebrating like they've won it I'd love to see Mbappe get the hattrick
He did as the lineman put his flag up for offside
Best final I’ve ever seen anyway.
Drama is off the scale.
Somewhere, at home, Ronaldo is flinging that Messi voodoo doll he bought against the wall.
Which, ironically, also has no effect.
Fell asleep at half time and woke up at 70 minutes, thinking France still looked desperate. Pen was soft but Otamendi had his hands all over him. I thought Mbappe was going to miss it. Fair play to him for bringing France back into it.
Did Boards crash for anyone else for a while there? Thinking the Messi fans forced it offline.
No offside for that third goal.
Pumping last 10mins+ now
It looked like Argentinian subs and officials were on the pitch before the goal actually went in
Should it have been allowed if they were?
Booooom
They weren’t
That crossed my mind also.
Argentina subs kicking the ball away. Classy bastards.
French defenders arse made Messi's second goal onside, I think
Shocking challenge.
No they haven’t. You’re entitled to your opinion, but stating it repeatedly every game is boring. The best refs in the world let them do it. Just move on.
Proper card challenge there
Great world cup final, whoever finally wins it. Ref haters can just suck it up. You hear that guff in every game in every sport on boards.
Team celebrates taking the lead in World Cup final shocker! The cheek of it.
Not showing us a replay of that shocking challenge?
Konate from a corner here now
No, I said celebrating like they've won it...
and here is the chance!
Penalty to France!
Pen ???
FK ??
Pen given for handball. This is the worst bought ref ever !
Penalty
That's a penlty.
