France aren't good.

The World Cup Final: France vs Croatia (Kickoff 16H00 BST)
- Thread starter K2K
- Start date
France, Croatia ad Belgium are my favourite teams so I am happy and relaxed today. I hope the better team wins. To be fair Croatia was the better side first half but France is maybe the best and most consistent team on this WC. It would be also nice to have a WC winner in Utd shirt next season. I usually support France but really like the desire and energy of Croatian players!
Good point, England are proper shite, don't know how they made it to the semi final
Pogba getting shat on a bit in midfield so far. Invisible
Shite again from Pogba. But Whoscored knows better, of course...
Whoever wins this will go down as the worst World Cup champion of all time. Not that they'll care.
"It is coming. They are coming"
Croatia is going to score. Much better team so far and playing like a team possessed.
Ffs Modric all you have to do is beat the first man
I believe Michael Carrick was the victim of a similar kind of decision vs Chelsea once so I'm going to call bullshit, Colin.
You're only cheering for France due to your love of Le Mans.
Goes back to France '98 and my love of Zidane
It was just a split second movement. He wasn't intended to use his hand. There's nothing in that for me. You can't give a penalty for such a nothing hand movement.
It was a close decision. Wouldn't have been a mistake either way he had made the decision, and half of the people would have been moaning anyway.
I'd totally disagree with that idea so we're probably better off agreeing to disagree.
I imagine most people would say France were on the tougher side of the draw compared to Croatia though.
I know right, luck of the draw and all that.. bit like this incredibly overrated Croatia side everyone on here is singing the praises so highly of.
The much heralded French midfield are kind of allowing Croatia to dominate this game so far. Need to really step up.
Croatia have started the second half as they began the first. Impressive.
Come on Croatia. Would be pathetic if France wins without having to even try to create an actual chance.
Wow Croatia are just playing a lot better
Natural and unnatural position is a function of intent, which takes precedence. Humans have to use their hands and feet for balance. We don't have tails anymore.w
France really pushing their luck.
Umtiti is the only one playing ... The rest caught the nerves.
I wouldn't mind a France win and did tip them to win the final, but they look woeful for a team on the brink of being world champions. I've loved this world cup but the quality of teams definitely hasn't been brilliant.
France have been bobbins. Lucky to be ahead. They just don't bother competing for the ball.
I know, right?
Pogba to Mbappe
Kante leaving a lot of space behind him there
What a pass Paul Pogba.
Mbappe should compete in the 100m dash
That was a good pass by Pogba
This has been a great final, and now theirs a fan on the pitch.
What's going on here?
Are you fecking kidding me?
Streaker!
France have good individual talent and buckets of luck.
It's hard to really credit Deschamps with much if France win it all.

Blimey how many pitch invaders? Thankfully nothing serious.
Streaker time!
Putin will not be impressed
Mandzukik is ruining every Croatia attack.
Is Pogba world class again now that he played that pass?
So much knee jerk.
