Re: World Cup 2018
To use a football pundit cliche, it was a game of two halves......first half Croatia were by far the better team with a couple of dodgy decisions going against them....Griezmann taking a fresh air dive to win the free kick that led to the own goal and a shit decision by the ref to give a penalty....VAR gives the penalty but ignores the dive, no consistency whatsoever.
However, the second half France showed their class with excellent defending and a couple of cracking goals from Pogba and Mbappe....that pass Pogba made before his goal was outstanding. France def deserved the win,it was a great game, esp for a final and capped what has been a tremendous World Cup.
Congratulations to France
Allez les bleus

Re: World Cup 2018
nothing to add to Stella's comments... except that whatever the content, only thing important when it comes to a final is to win it.
About VAR, I would say that it was already there when Zidane got a red card in 2006, against Italy (Final - Materazzi - "headbanging")
I know football is not the main topic here, but don't forget about this kid
