#64 World Cup Final ~ France v Croatia - Match thread
This is often a uneventful match, not fitting of the prize, but France will be odds on

I've always had a soft spot for the Croats , for them to win the World Cup with such a small population and ravaged by war in the mid 90s it's nothing less than heroic .

Re: World Cup Final- Match thread ~ France v Croatia
I think us or Croatia would have got battered in the final.
Croatia have played 3 games in extra time in this WC now, gotta have had it's toll surely?
They'll have a day less rest than the French too?

Controversial, but if I was Deschamp, I’d drop Griezmann for this one
He was truly appalling against Belgium, shooting on site and barely passing

Re: World Cup Final- Match thread ~ France v Croatia
Funny old game, I thought he ran his socks off and turned Hazard into a peripheral figure by not giving him a moment of space. If one of our forwards had done the same today on Modric we'd probably be in the final.e17 wrote:Controversial, but if I was Deschamp, I’d drop Griezmann for this one

Re: World Cup Final- Match thread ~ France v Croatia
Looking forward to it.
The pinnacle of football and always will be the biggest game in our sport.
I fancied France to win befire it started and i hope they do. I think they are the best team in the world by a fair distance and their youth system is unbelievable. 49 French born players at the world cup!
For a coubtry that can be 'non-plussed' about football at times their production line is staggering
