FIFA World Cup 2022 Discussion Thread

Argentina team managed to score the first goal thanks to messi penalty in my opinion that was not a penalty and it was weird that the referee did not even check the var either way this will make the game more interesting.

Var was only useful once referee was trying to defend its favorite club lol. I guess that if var must be used anytime to make sure everything goes far but the fact that if var rarely used in this game. That proves that if var was not so useful to make the game fair at this moment. It seems like that france got so many disadvantage caused by var has not been used since the early of game. Var is a must caused by it can help referee to decide the right decision.

I think there was nothing wrong with the penalty given to Di Maria. People don't see clearly as it seems that Di Maria was pushed from behind. Messi has scored 4 penalties so far and his total number of goals is 6 now. However this still shouldn't mislead people because he has made a big contribution to this success of his team so far. Argentina have dominated the match very interestingly. France were barely able to shoot for the first time by the 70th minute. This is horrible for a team like France.

They are the last champions in the World Cup in the end. They just can't give up on the match that easy.

Argentina had been in control since the first half. The game changed after the first penalty, and in the first half, Messi and D Maria each completed 22 passes with a pass accuracy rate of 96% while also scoring a beautiful second goal. Argentina also holds the tournament record with five penalties awarded. As I watched France's passes be slow and was disappointed to see my favorites lose, I was not impressed with France's performance. Argentina gave them a full game, and mbappe scored the first goal on a penalty kick as well as the second goal, giving him a record of seven goals.

France started really bad no passes no shots no try to score a goal but now they are in full fo with 2 goals by Mbappe.  Argentina played exceptionally well today theu had total control over the game . Now game is about to go in extra time if no team scores 3rd goal.

Mbappe has break record in almost five minutes space mbappe score two goals and pressuring to score again, it's now France started playing, and it's now we know that world cup has started, France coach substitution is absolutely nice and the performance of France has changed totally from the way I'm seeing the match this time, it looks like it will end with my previous prediction that the match will end penalty kick, but the tension of Argentina is weak since they changed di maria

Imagine this scenario though, Mbappe to score another goal for France then end the game with France to win 3-2. He won the golden boots and hattrick from the final game so that would be the perfect scenario for France right now. Last 5 minutes to go though, currently France is really dominating the game but anything could happen in this game

Since Dimaria was withdrawn and replaced, seeing that Argentina's attack became weak, that was France's chance to turn things around, this match was very exciting and finally a little breath of relief for my bet on France

Do you think there’s any chance of some plays being gamed? Like, having arranged results in advance?

For me it sounds like full conspiracy theory but would love to hear your thoughts on that

There’s a lot of money to be made on that. Of course
But buying results of a game seems to be really hard since there’s so many people involved

[Asiska02]

This is indeed a World Cup final going on. It is now Mbappe vs Argentina after scoring a brace within 3 minutes. The match is levelled now and we are going for another 30mins play again. I feel we are about to watch another interesting football all over again. Will France break the record and win the World Cup for the second time in a row or will Messi dream of winning the World Cup come true today?

[Bananington]

This is indeed a World Cup final going on.

Real entertainment!

It would have been disappointing if this game had ended without France scoring any goal. Extra time in the game and now it is now a matter of the team that can remain composed to get a goal. The game never looked like it was going to enter into extra time with the poor statistics that France have had in this game, but this kind of tight game is what we expect in this finals, France were almost making it too easy for Argentina, good they were able to get goals to extend the game.

I think it is just some rumors and there is no base for these allegations. How can you first control the one referee and after the two linesmen and after that the 22 players that are constantly playing on the field?

And a player knows very well that if he does not play well he is going to get substituted. That is only going to be bad for his career. He is not going to gain anything in long term from this. At least this looks like really hard to pull off and in the current world of social media and cameras, it is nearly impossible.

Imagine this scenario though, Mbappe to score another goal for France then end the game with France to win 3-2. He won the golden boots and hattrick from the final game so that would be the perfect scenario for France right now. Last 5 minutes to go though, currently France is really dominating the game but anything could happen in this game

France were better in the second half, but the penalty was controversial. In extra time, each team has equael chances, one goal can decide everything, or maybe the game will be neat, because everyone will be afraid to make a mistake and we will watch penalties. I expected France to win in regular time, it could be any outcome now.

Actually, the penalty was not controversial. Both penalties were the right decisions taken by the referee. The only bad mistake done by the referee was probably at the end of the first half in extra time when Lautaro Martinez should have gotten the corner. Argentina were making good chances, but they were not able to convert those into goals. France were supposed to play well in the second half because they had players who generally has more Stamina compared to the Argentinian players.

Right now, it is the start of the second half of extra time and anything can happen in this match.

Incredible match, Argentina 3 - 2 Mbappe
Messi scored the third goal and things are getting crazy here.
Argentina still pushing and the way that Varane was out shows how difficult the game was for the French defenders.

Jeremias Fernandez score another goal for Argentina and make score 3-2 goal. Argentina now likely win. only 5 min lest the 2nd ET time over . it is really amazing match
Edit - Mbappe score another goal for France by a penalty chance . score now 3-3 goal what a amazing match

I think we are watching Kylian Mbappe vs Argentina match lol  .

Although Argentina played well as a team, I am not satisfied with the performance of the France team. France managed to score three goals thanks to Mbappe's excellent performance.
I was very disappointed with France's performance in the first half. They played very badly. If Mbappe failed to score two goals in the second half, France would surely have been defeated.

Although Messi and Di Maria performed well, Alvarez's performance was not good in today's match. We probably won't see any more goals in extra time.

It is the end of extra time and the match is going to penalties. Now everything depends on luck. Whoever is the lucky year is going to win the World Cup. This is the only World Cup final six goals that have been scored. This is obviously one of the best international games ever seen. Now both teams will fight it out in the penalties and I don’t know if Argentina is going to be able to win because they generally do not have a very good record of penalties so far in international football.

You see that the match has changed, France don't want to allow Argentina to defeat them, now the match is 3:3 both Argentina and France, mbappe has put smile to the face of the France, and France have win the match for this remaining three minutes, but France play could not be able to score, but the match will end penalty kick because of the frustration mbappe has put messi because Messi has played what he can to win this match.

And we have a new Soccer World Champion - CONGRATULATIONS ARGENTINA!

What an amazing final this has been; France let the guard down during the first half of the game and ended up suffering two goals from Argentina. But in the second half, they were able to turn the game and scored two goals by being able to take advantage of some defensive fails. At the extension, the two teams fought a lot and were able to show amazing football and two more goals. One for each team. At the penalties, the Argentinian goalkeeper was the star and helped Argentina get the title.

All in all, it was an amazing football spectacle both teams provided us today!
