Wow. Argentina went into their shell too early. What a finish!

Mbappe scores two in two minutes. French magic.

Ageing like the finest of milk

Subs have been instrumental

Only one team has come back from two goals down to win a World Cup final. West Germany against Hungary in the 1954 miracle of Bern.

2-2 into extra time.

MajorRage

My early prediction was 2-1 France with neither of the superstars to really put their stamp on it.

Awful prediction!!

Messi with the winner? 3-2.

Mbappe with a penalty. 3-3. Hat trick in a World Cup final matching Sir Geoff Hurst.

broughie

Hate penalty shootouts. Should play the game like hockey. Play until there is a winner.

That ended up being a great final. Messi will get the plaudits but Emi Martinez won Argentina the WC.

Aston Villa's goalie just won the World Cup for his nation.

MajorRage

The WC that settled the Ronaldo / Messi debate.

@sparky Back to Martinez, ignoring the penalty save, it was the block on Kolo Muani's shot with seconds left that was vital.

Sensational shithousery by the Arg keeper. My new idol.

Well deserved win for Argentina. France looked off all game.

Messi has finished the GOAT argument once and for all

Billy Tell

That was a decent effort. Messi was the star. Don’t think Argentina are taking home the trophy. Will this be a kiss of death comment…?

Yes it will be.
