World Cup Qatar 2022

You may get your wish. I read that several French starters are sick with some kind of “upper respiratory illness”.

Oh man, one of the Moroccan players got off a beautiful bicycle kick shot on target and the goalie/goal post saves it. France up 1-0 thus far with an early goal.

That would have been the goal of the tournament.

MBappe’ won’t get credit for the assist, I guess because of the slight deflection, but he just had a Messi-like in-the-box ball skills demonstration to setup a goal by France. 2-0 now.

I wanted Morocco, but they still made history. Now, the final is an easy decision for me. Go, Messi!

Waking up and watching at 7:00 AM on a Sunday will be really tough, but I’ll just have to rise to the occasion. :grinning:

Booo! And that never should have been a penalty kick.

Nutmeg in the World Cup final is as rare as being encouraged to pursue prestige on CC😀

That was a silly challenge in the box from behind. That was a foul at 23’.

Argentina is clearly the superior team, but there was word during the week that France was having some virus issues.

And Goal #2 for Argentina was a fast break clinic.

I can’t share any of our family texts right now because there is too much profanity! Just in amazement!

No one questioned whether Mbappe was offside on that 2nd goal, but sheesh, that looked very close to me. But I didn’t even see one replay.

Messi oh so close. :angry:
