Been waiting for an African team to win the WC for decades. Never thought much on Morocco. I would've thought Senegal or Angola would be in the finals first. It's going to be a crazy night in France regardless of who wins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnS Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 The only two teams to be Australia in this World Cup and they are both in the Final. I'm sure it's just a coincidence! 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnS Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 So Croatia beat Morocco 2-1 in the third place playoff. I must ask, did anyone watch it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the third place playoff too and I surprised Croatia won the match 2-1 despite of tiredness from overtime in previous matches. For Morocco, they reminded me of Korea during 2002 World Cup since they followed almost same steps as Korea did (Korea managed to go in semi final but lost semi final and third place playoff matches in 2002 World Cup). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ha_banos Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 I switched off after that first penalty decision. I was being dragged around covent garden at the time though to be fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99call Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 I watch football every four years, basically the world cup final. Everytime I watch it I remember why I despise football. The referees are spineless. Pathetic first penalty, and allowing the Argentinian goalie to throw away the ball during penalties, is just low class shithousery, real scummy sportsmanship Football does have the ability to entertain, this game (unlike many) was a shining example , but Jesus!, if there is one game on the planet that rewards poor behaviour it's football. Unlike American Football, or Cricket or Rugby etc. It never crosses my mind, "I bet they would be a great bloke to have a pint with"......I just think Jesus, money can't buy class. Congrats to Argentina, both teams dug in, and performed. I just wish the refs weren't petrified of the players/fifa, would make the game a million times more enjoyable. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnS Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 I'm going to call it okay... Whomever beats Australia in an elimination Round of 16 match will go on to win the World Cup Final. Case in point... 1) 2006 - Italy 1 Australia 0 2) 2022 - Argentina 2 Australia 1 Of course, whomever plays Australia in a Round of 16 match will also receive one guaranteed penalty from the generous referee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxer31 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 great final -Messi and Mbappe certainly provided the excitement. Now back to Man City quest for the quad. first game against Liverpool in the EFL cup and we might not be at full strength to rest a few. can't stand losing to Liverpool/Klopp. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
