The Official GRcade FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Thread: Someone check on Ronaldo, Argies win WC on pens

[Captain Kinopio]

Fair play Messi has been lively in the last 20 mins.

[Tomous]

Wowsers. What a final.

Lloris should do better I think

[Cuttooth]

If France win this will there have been a jammier World Cup winner in recent memory?

EDIT - Actually, Italy in 2006 were super jammy weren't they?

Is it jammy though? Deserved penalty and a brilliant goal. They kept going despite how badly they'd played and Argentinian failed to capitalise and punish France further when they had the chance, which is on them.

I feel they have been distinctly second best in each of the last three matches and conceding chance after chance. Great at taking their own chances of course and it's the nature of tournaments, but I think they've been a lot luckier than most this year.

[Cuttooth]

Never seen a team so determined to not win a World Cup.

[JediDragon05]

Oh wow

[Captain Kinopio]

Nobody is playing for penalties

[JChalmers]

This is a great game, but Argentina have completely bottled this.

[Dowbocop]

Me and all the other conscientious objectors right now

[Captain Kinopio]

My god what a save.

This goalkeeper.

[KK]

My god.

Mbappe and Messi cool as you like.

[Cuttooth]

Thought that was a poor penalty from Messi really. But not as bad as that one.

[Benzin]

Well that was utter nonsense come the 75th minute

[Captain Kinopio]

You never fancied Lloris.

Shame for Mbappe.

I guess Messi is officially the best player ever now, Ronaldo in pieces.

Felt like Lloris could have saved the first three, they weren't particularly special.

[Lotus]

Get strawberry floated, France

Martinez

[BTB]

Dislike Emi Martinez but congrats to Argentina and what a bloody final!

I think France are happy to concede possession when they have a lead, so it's hard to judge how well they played against England and Morocco because they were in the lead for so much of those games. I don't think I'd describe them as jammy in either game.

[RetroCora]

That was mental.
