Odds on Dybala to miss?

He's elbowed it away in the box. They all know to keep their arms down. Under the rules as they stand it was the right call... but I think the current rules on handball are bullshit. The player that "handled" wasn't even looking so under the old system where handball had to be deliberate it wouldn't be given. I agree. But that's why everyone puts their hands behind their back. They all know what happens.

Gives away the pen, scores the winner. Some redemption.

Every time, the Argy keeper was off the line before the ball was struck.

I'm not a fan of Argentina. But I am so happy for Messi. He is the greatest.

Fair play to Mbappe too. Guy scores a hat trick, ends up on the losing side, and doesn't spend ten minutes on our screens bawling his eyes out. Great sportsman, perfect penalties, what more can one say.

Incredible final. Argentina just about the better side so the right result in the end. One of the greatest games ever.

Watched every final since ‘78 and that’s definitely the best one I’ve seen, incredible game. Pleased for Messi, one of the greatest if not the greatest, of all time.

They know how good Martinez is at saving penalties but only one of them had the sense to put it down the middle.

The greatest World Cup final for the greatest ever World Cup seem fitting.
So happy for Messi that his story is completed like that. Greatest of all time.

If you didn’t enjoy that as a game then football is not for you.
Absolutely incredible game.
Personally delighted for Messi.
I think maradona was probably better but Messi is just much more admirable as a bloke.

What a brilliant game, each phase was superb, from Argentina looking fantastic for 80 mins, then anything could have happened til penalties & Martinez even managing to out-shithouse Nicholls.
Really pleased for Messi, I hope the selfish prick Ronaldo is crying again.

Greatest ever World Cup on the field maybe... But just because the football has been great, let's not forgive or forget the absolute shitshow that FIFA are, or how much of a shambles it's been for the fans.
