@sparky Back to Martinez, ignoring the penalty save, it was the block on Kolo Muani's shot with seconds left that was vital.

Well deserved win for Argentina. France looked off all game.
Messi has finished the GOAT argument once and for all

That was a decent effort. Messi was the star. Don’t think Argentina are taking home the trophy. Will this be a kiss of death comment…?

Yes it will be.

Mbappe with a penalty. 3-3. Hat trick in a World Cup final matching Sir Geoff Hurst.

Brilliant finale to a tremendous tournament

Argentina certainly deserved that victory but the drama was really enjoyable. They completely smothered France in the first half, never gave them any space and time on the ball and were slick with the ball. Di Maria couldn't be controlled by the French right side. Second half, France began to at least get some possession but until Otamendi did what Otamendi does you couldn't really see them scoring - and then the equaliser was just a superbly worked goal.
Extra time was much better than most of them as both teams tried to get a winner instead of sitting back. Nice move for the Messi goal. Even with a minute to go both teams have good chances to win it.
Always felt Argentina would win a shoot-out and Martinez is a good penalty stopper - he dives up and forwards and is hard to get past he he guesses the right way.

Of the modern generation without a doubt but of all time. Yaeh, nah.
Ignoring all the well documented host issues, a great tournament, despite, (because of?), the absence of a single great team.

That could fill up the time until Christmas arguing about the football GOAT. Maradona at his peak was greater than Messi but his peak was relatively short compared to Messi. Pele is in the conversation as well - who else would you put forward?
