Well, the teams I was kinda rooting for outside of England are out and I don't ecpect England to beat France on Saturday... trying to guess who the final two teams will be.

Whelp, not anymore.

All I know is, if you did a little research, it seems in some way or another, either Morocco or France are truly dominating these games. Seems many players in France are from Morocco or come from Morocco lineage and many players in the Morocco team were born and learned to play in France.

And if you do more than a little research, it becomes clear that both Morocco and Argentina are being helped along by the refs.

And evidently France based on tonight’s match, but Harry should have buried that second penalty in the same way.

Argentina specifically because of Messi. He has a lot of sponsors that want to use him to make some money after the games are over.

Does he have more sponsors than Cristiano Ronaldo, I wonder? I hope Argentina gets royally *ssf*cked against France, and it seems like they might.

According to Google, Messi has a net worth of 620 million while Ronaldo has a net worth of 490 million.

Notice that doesn't directly relate to sponsors. Still, I didn't know that and I'm surprised at how understated Messi seems with his fortune compared to Ronaldo. (Or am I?)

Well, France turned the game around for themselves, wonder how these last minutes play out. (edit) Or in extra time.

~~Sumac~~ · 12-18-2022, 01:54 PM

Argentina, my beloved!!
YES! YES! YES!

*Warhorse* · 12-18-2022, 03:40 PM

Messi finally has a trophy.

Last Ronin · 12-19-2022, 12:08 AM

About damn time for Messi. He fought hard for that win, truly an epic WC final match.

Time for a joint-British team next time.
