      Morocco, my Team of the Tournament and they have done well and made themselves proud, but France were definitely a step too far.

      They knocked on the door, but really produced very little in the way of goal scoring chances and the right Nations are in the Final.

      My one disappointment about that is, Argentina and Messi are through, because all we are going to hear now is, "Messi that, Messi this…", which really gets on my nerves, like he is the only Player that plays for Argentina.

      My one joy…we will not have to listen to that infernal Moroccan whistling anymore, but well done to them for getting this far :0)

      This final WC isn’t between Messi vs Mbappe, it’s been Griezmann and Fernandez. Whoever controls the midfield wins the WC. Whatever happen we’ll witness an amazing final.

      France disappointed, they beat a Marocco amateur team. Brazil and Spain belonged in the semifinals. I hope Messi wins the final, France does not deserve it

      France doesn’t need many chances to put the ball in the back of the net. Argentina could dominate time of position, have superb ball control, score a goal and still lose to France. It’s going to take everything they have and more for Argentina. People have to realize France is about winning, never been to extra time or penalty.

      One more win France please,for the love of God please win the next game.This tournament was bought for Argentina so please win the WC and set things right.

      I'm French and i'm not even happy to reach the final. Yes, we had injuries but our match was very poor. I'm tired of that, i don't ask to play like Spain but we can play football too.

      I really hope we play better than this again Argentina.

      FIFA RIGGED! MEXICAN REFEREE DIDNT GRANT MOROCCO TWO OBVIOUS PENALTIES!!! SHAME ON FRANCE! BAD GAME! YOU DIDNT WIN FRANCE!

      Best of luck to both teams, both are strong. However, my preference is France. Purely because despite the Mbappe hype, it’s been about team effort as a whole – Giroud, Griezmann etc i mean Deschamps has options despite so many injured players ruled out of the tournament. Whereas Argentina, yes there are talented players but it’s all about one man: Messi. You take him out of the team you’d be taking out the backbone. Would Argentina still win it then? When it comes to the World Cup I prefer team effort as opposed to the ‘one man army’ model.

      Agreed, Griezmann thrives when he plays the free midfield position, dropping as low into a defensive midfield and going as high as a second striker. Man's passing, positional awareness and runs have been incredible.

    34. Iron Man on

      Final would be epic, Grizemann vs Lionel both amazing playmaker who play deep and create wonderful chances specially Lionel out of Nowhere he can create chances, and then Mbappe vs Messi both amazing goal scoreer

    36. Vegan Food & Health on

      The reason France can win this is because they can hit you differently. Mbappe can run and drag the whole defense , Griezman can destabilize an entire team, Dembele can drag a whole team, Giroud can score at any moment. When Argentina is only about Messi If Messi is Shutdown the whole game Argentina will play like an average team

    37. Devon on

      Not a single complaint about the Penalty Morocco was robbed of when the ref gave the player a yellow card when he was fouled in the box. If it was Argentina you’d hear everyone talking about this

    38. B Radical 777 on

      Greizmann has been amazing this whole campaign.
      It shows what what he is still capable of when he is playing with joy backed by the team and coaching friendships .
      It’s been sad to watch him shrink after the Barcelona mishap.

      Can you stop saying it's the first African and Arab nation to make to the Semi Final! Morocco is an African country, imagine us saying France are the first European and African nation to win the World Cup!Stop it

    43. Bert Groeneveld on

      Lets not forget that France mist it's topscorer (Benzema) and a few other key players. They played it smart and beat Morocco (great performance of them) at their own game: let them have the bal. Supported by an early goal the result was clear from the start.

      Where France would be today without their colonial troops helping them out in this tournament ??? Matter of fact, where France would be today without colonialism ???
