They are the better team. A machine that worked incredibly well together.

Argentina’s goalie must have really played amazingly well.

Spain’s shooting left much to be desired, their shots generally were soft and directed right to him.

France probably would have scored 2 or 3 on them.

Spanish goalie was awarded best goalie of the world cup. Not sure why you are giving the Argentinian goalie more credit.

And then the sore loser, cry baby soccer kids start the arena-wide fight. Beat the pee out of each other, cry babies.

Just saying the Spanish goalie didn’t have to make any saves today.

Not sure about the reaction to President Trump at the game, but I was at a houseful of people, about 15 30-40 Year old friends of my son and his wife who are both conservative but work in the field iof arts, commercial film, advertising, and design, and everyone there were booing Trump whenever they showed him on tv. It’s the world my son and his wife live in. (And they both voted for Trump.) Pretty scary look at the young folks coming up in our country. And we live in Tennessee.

You wrote: “ France probably would have scored 2 or 3 on them”.
What? Spain beat France in the semi in a manner that France produced no (as in zero) shots on goal. Would’ve and could’ve don’t work in football, as in life itself.
France could just barely touch the ball against Spain. Collective IQ of this Spanish team is out of this world. They allowed themselves just a few minutes of losing control in the last moments of the final game against Messi and Co.

It was a second yellow, and IMHO, it was deserved. Also, if Fernandez didn’t get one, Paredes would have at some point. Paredes choked Garcia after the game was finished. He shouldn’t play another game. If you consider that sportsmanship, then you and I will have to agree to disagree.

The best team in this Cup actually became the winners.

I’m not a fan of Spain’s politics, but I know how to separate a game from politics. A lot of people here can’t do that.

I meant France would have scored 2 or 3 on Argentina.

Spain won the WC with defense, not offense.
Argentina’s defense the whole tournament was suspect.
