Errr..Why?

They all knew the score.

You'd have looked like that Benny Hill sketch running away from a group of irate fans :haha:

I think they were way to tanked up on booze to give chase. Probably tanked up celebrating the first goal, tanked up with worry on the second and finally tanked up drowning their sorrows after the third goal that sealed England's fate.

Hardly.....never seen a drunken football fan in my life :)

Another lie detector broken by a whopper. :haha:

Anyone going to watch England's final game for 3rd place or have you turned off? I will not as I heard that dam song with a new twist which is bleeping me off.

Belgium lead 1-0 at half time and appear to be well in control of the game.

NOPE! IT JUST WON'T BE 'MINNESOTA NICE' :Kaleun_Crying:

I'm hoping that Croatia take out the World Cup, just because they are the underdogs. :P

^ That and the fact they've never won it before.

Unfortunately in Croatian football, media report, there is a close nearness to fashist and ultranationalist opinion camps, and several Croatian players in the past have shown fashist greetings and sympathised with this ideology and ultranatioanalism, media further write. This gives the success of Croatia at this Cup a foul off-taste.

However, Les Bleus have a defence that is incredibly tough to crack, and they have the by far strongest offensive in the tournamernt and can switch from defence to all-out attack within splits of a second, it seems. :) . France to me is the clear favourite. The Force is strong in them this year.

@Skybird if what is what you wrote is right, they fit perfectly well into the current worldwide political situation with the right wing getting strong everywhere. And when it comes to football, almost all hooligans are not entirely 'left-wing' :03:

Whatever they play better than France, Cro just had bad luck this time in the beginning. Lots of goals.. And Croatia has much less means, time and possibilities to train and maintain a football team. They are very good despite of that, and a win would help their small country. May the best win, not the luckiest.

And France wins 4:2 against Croatia, congrats!

They blocked again and sometimes tried to delay, however this was a better game to watch than how France acted in the semi final, against Belgium.

I thought it was so crass when that one French player made the "L" sign while facing the opposing fan section.

Liberté! Egalité! Mbappé! :D

Well its all over now just have to wait another 4 years !

.. le jour de gloire est arrivée :O:




@Cyborg 322 ^ nah two years and there's the European championship :)

France's victorious football World Cup team is to receive the country's highest accolade, the Légion d'Honneur, the French presidency has announced.

No those who love football, have to wait 4½ years.

Why because they will shift the tournament to the winter because holding a tournament in the summer in Qatar is madness? You don't say. Their 'winning' bid clearly outlined how this World Cup will feature air conditioned outdoors, even the fan zones.



Impossible you say? Not in Qatar, where everything is possible. And FIFA agrees!
