Bye Bye.They were giving these the trophy after 5 Mins of the tournament starting.

Still no roadrunner with his legendary bet update
 I kept telling him to cash out his France bet, hope he finally took note. |

Not seen a Team play worse than France the whole Tourney , Useless

France were poor for long periods against Paraguay, and then against a Morocco who didn't turn up. They were very poor again tonight against a better side, and were well beaten. On the evidence of the last three games they were massively overrated.

Apologies to Sacha Distel

The slick Spaniards do it again.
 37 matches now unbeaten, and just equalled Italy's international record of 31 consecutive competitive matches unbeaten (set between 2018 and 2021) You can have a moan about the overall style of the Spanish, but you simply can't deny their effectiveness at besting their opps. To sum up the state of play, the ever confident, near arrogant, Patrick Viera at HT: Spain are too good for France. |

That was a Good Performance by Spain, But they have hardly set the world Alight up to tonight
|

By:
Hope England perform better than that tomorrow.

Ello Ello I would not like to be a Gendarme this evening.

Not sure if Spain were great, or France were appallingly bad, bit of both.
|
|
By:
I couldn't see why that wasn't a penalty towards the end that would have likely have made it an even easier win. Defender just shoved Yamal over.
|
|
By:
They cant be any worse Pen , France hardly took part , took Dembele 90 Mins to wake up
|

Some teams are alright when it's all going their way.
They were gutless tonight. |
|
By:
People forget there's another team stopping you playing.

.... Yes Kriskin, but from what we have seen so far are they odds on to do it again. ??

Loved football all my life, but im fed up with it now, the idea is supposed to be to score goals, 5 shots on target the whole game, the 2 from spain were the penalty and the goal, 3 from france all after the 60th min,dull as ditchwater.

Spain must be hoping Argentina win, must be sweating at the thought of having to face Madueke instead
|

All of these people seemingly underwhelmed by Spain in this tournament should consider the scores on the doors - Spain 13 Opponents 1.
That is why they are in the final. |
|

I wouldn't call it a masterclass, it didn't need to be. France were woeful, deserved to lose 5-0 they were that bad (not that Spain deserved 5-0). None of their famed front 4 turned up.
|

The Spanish have been very consistent over the last few years. Current European champions as well. On that performance tonight they have to be hard to beat whoever plays against them in the final

If Spain play like that again on Sunday Argentina or England will struggle like the French tonight. Spain now 1.72 on the outright market
|

By:
Nope. Look at Olise in particular playing balls straight to Spain players all game. That is not down to Spain, they are hard to play against but not that hard. Belgium and Portugal gave them a better game.
|
|
By:
Spain are nightmare opposition for England, even moreso than playing against low blocks, at least against low blocks we can have the ball and eventually break them down, with this tedious obsession with possession based team it'll frustrate the life out of England.
|
|
By:
England can sit in a low block and look to hit one the counter against Spain's high line. That might suit England.
|
|
By:
We are not close to Spain in terms of retention of the ball or passing and moving, making space for teamates to pass, we needed to play a side like France that would have given up a lot more space
|
|
By:
England do not have the defenders to play a low block.
|
|
By:
Portugal and Belgium sat in and it took Spain 90 mins to get the winner.
|
|
By:
Have you ever seen a match where a team controls possession and the other team they never find their rhythm, France never got going tonight , the managers changes to the starting line up completely failed
Just about saved £1900 cashing out on France in the 75th minute |

Plenty of more boring games in the tournament – this one felt quite full of energy and speed etc. And anyway we've seen many teams play a close down style of play – Jose and his Chelsea teams at times, 1-0 to the Arsenal, heck even the Barcelona team of the late 2000s early 2010s with their ridiculous possession and passing around.
Anyway each to their own but it's unlikely a WC semi-final is going to be too high scoring. |

France played like they all had food-poisoning. Wasn't a good contest. A big let down for such a big game and what was expected of it.
|
|
By:
France finished the game with zero big chances creaated, less than 0.4xG and Mbappe, Dembele, Olise all went missing, how was that a great game? it was completely one sided, and the team who were in control were boring to watch.
