I wanna thank to all people aruond the world for supporting Croatia.
Croatia were the true champions IMHO. Well done Croatia!!!!
Croatia was robbed. Very sad. I'm happy the whole world knows it!
possession 61% for Croatia, shots on target 5, 4 goals for France. Is France the most undeserving winners of all time?
Igor brankovic : FRANCE ARE DESERVING TO BE CROWNED WORLD
CHAMPIONS, FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THEIR GLORIOUS HISTORY.
Croatia was robbed of an opportunity to be world champions.
😂 ok internet thug.
Arnold : A CONA QUE TE VOTOU.
1st start with that free kick! grizman dived before contact!

Myosotis : YOU ARE THE FANTASY, HYPOCRITE. GO LIVE IN IT.
Loosers!!!!!!
Minh Tran : PATHETIC PARASITE.
Croatia play like world champion!!!
MC 90 you think so never will hear about Croatia 100years from now they not suppose to be in final anyway
And France got the cup 😎
Lol
Loosers!
Would have, could have, should have...but they didn't couldn't and wouldn't so suck it up!
Too many things are suspious in this match.. I just hope that sport luck and justice will get France in future.
The only thing, for sure, is that Schmeichel is a big GENTLMEN!
VAR kill the final
Croatia is a real Champion ❤️🇭🇷🙏
Mr. Schmeichel is a gentleman. Enjoyed his commentary.
Thank you Michael!
this guy says "Pogba got an easy goal." What?? That's effin ridiculous. Pogba set up that entire sequence (with a great flick back from Mbappe) with, IMO, the most audacious 30 meter pass I can remember in recent world cups and then went end to end, then had to reflex react to a rebound off his first shot, then judge in a split second where the goalkeeper was leaning towards, and guide it in the other way with his weaker foot. This guy on the left is a quack. It's ridiculous how people go from suggesting the penalty award was unfair to France got two easy subsequent goals. France dominated this entire world cup with defensive and counter-attacking discipline. Loved their play.
Agree with Peter, he absolutely right, the ref was crap on the night and Also the Croatian keeper was not fit to play.
Kurdistan Peshmerga very good referee the var show clearly hand ball 100%penalty
FIFA never goes against France !
was it France or Africa :-)
bad looser
Nous les Quebecois, ont est tellement fiers de nous freres francais. Tous ceux qui
aime et adore la FRANCE comme moi, sont tous aujourd'hui, CHAMPIONS DU MONDE.
Your 1st goal was even fake. Your griezman cheated he dove...
Seems like all the people are here just for Croatia
Peter, mi te volimo!!🇭🇷😘
Agree with Schmeichel on the controversial penalty
The guy purposely touches the ball with his hand to stop it like he is playing volleyball....
Penagalty !!!

''the whole world could see it was not a penalty'' Peter Schmeichel
"The whole world can see I would have been a shit referree" Peter Schmeichel
mehmet kilic it whas penalty of france player who touch first ball by hand
true
benvolio mozart jelousy ? Or salty?
Everyone see that is not penalty.
Croatia champ of world 🇭🇷 by people read comments
Bravo Referee...you destroy this Match!!!Shame.....2 first goals are unfair: Grizmann fake and deserve a yellow!! and the penalty was not right!!! yes Schmeichel is right!!! worst final for many years!!
Greizmann touched = free kick
Handballs aren’t fools in some people’s world?! Absurd...
Then he didnt give 25 pens for Croatia on the other hand. They touched Croatian players atleast that many times in the box.
mistercrimesb , no handballs though.... are we still pretending the handball wasn’t a penalty?
Seb spoke about free kick for first goal. That's what I replied to. But in my footballing experience(played for years) penalty was also bad decision. Players should just shoot the arms in the box, not try to score goals. That would be up to your interpretation of the situation. Handball=penalty
France + referee won this match :P Croatia was better!
Thank you Croatia for being more entertaining and presenting a more beautiful fotball this final!
Fact:
The first free kick leading to 1-0 was incorrect
The penalty was VERY unclear, 9/10 of referees would NOT give them a penalty in a final.
Possession
Cro 66% Fra 34%
Passes
Cro 529 Fra 285
Pass precision
Cro 83% Fra 68%
Sad that WC is over now, Russia was a great host!!
LOL the penalty was given BECAUSE all others similars hands were given a penalty, did you follow the game or what ? And yes, France played defensively in the end and what ? Croatia were forced to play because France were leading, so what's why it was " beautiful 'football ". Those guys try to win the WC, not amuse a random internet user on twitter
Stupid analysis. If you’re going by possession and stats, you should send the cup to Spain. Croatia did not create clear cut chances. France was clinical in the second half. You take your chances in life, or get comfortable with the sound of your excuses.
Dar Pet The only numbers you should keep in mind are....4 - 2
Croatia were better ???? Lol team took literally 3 extra time matches to beat Denmark, Russia and England. Most people crying here are barka and rm fake fans who happened to know rakitic and modric from fifa and started supporting them😂😂😂
1.You are an idiot if you think that team that played 3 ET is bad.
2. Modrić is 2 time in Fifa team of the year.
3. Rakitić is the reason whay Messi score 50% of his gol in Barca
Schmeichel is 100% correct. Without the first 2 undeserving France goals ,we would have had a different game 1-0 Croatia going into the second half. Huge difference ! Croatia has won the respect of the football world ,while France will be the legitimate champions and a known to of had a good tournament ,with some real breaks.
We can also say that if the shot of Perisic hadn't been deflected, it wouldn't have been a goal, and second goal of Croatia was a huge mistake of Lloris...
The first two French goals have been proven to be based on bad decisions by the Referee's ,... by a great majority. VAR has made this possible . What you suggesting is completely unrelated and quite frankly stupid.
It's a pen the ball's trajectory is hindered by Perisic's hand I don't even see how it's a controversy. Meanwhile the free kick was a dreadful display of marking and defending on Croatia's part, and they can only blame themselves for scoring an own goal. Regardless, 95% of Croatia's attacks were utterly sterile, the exception being of course a stunning goal from Perisic, and Lloris gifted them a second to cling on. Please stop crying France dissected Croatia you just refuse to see it.
The vast majority of fans on all sides would agree that the first two French goals were at very least questionable. So what . I only say it because I want to see the WC better and better and if you don't look at what was wrong that gave them those goals ,you can't correct it. You say 95% of Croatia's attacks were sterile . Did you watch the game ? don't answer.
france choose to play contre attack and let the ball to other teams when you score against them they can open you wide if they want the only time they lost 2 1 vs Argentina they start attacking and scored 3 goals in 10 mins
one sided analysis
I think it's pretty unanimous that those two ref decisions in the first half were wrong. I'd call for a rematch.
There will be a rematch European finals ,Croatia vs France, or Africa? No... its France ... or is it? Kimbempe-kongo
Dembele-mauritanija
Sidibe-mali
Umtiti-cameroon
Pogba-guinea
Tolisso-togo
Matuidi-angola
Kante-mali
Nzonzi-kongo
Mbappe-cameroon
Mendy-senegal
Mandanda-kongo
Fekir-algeria
Martin 2 stars bro... remind it... 2 stars.
Flux Mulder : Fine. Go do that rematch, on the frozen hills of ANTARCTICA, with the rest of the polar bears and the penguins, IF THEY WANT YOU.
Croatia dominated the entire game same as Belgium did...this France reminds me of Greece when they took Euro cup with 100 % defending football....sad part is the ref conditioned the game against Croatia at their best moment. It flipped the game towards France ..and all the world agrees ..no ref would call that a penalty...unless you are bought and paid for...sad that we have to see this kind of ref in the finals of the world cup...congratulations to Croatia team...you guys have presented attacking football that we all love to watch...
1. Never listen to a goalkeeper's opinion when it comes to a penalty call
2. Plenty of videos online showing that the ball trajectory would have landed in a pack of 3 French players for one Croatian. MBappe and Umtitti were on the trajectory and chances for a goal were as high as it gets
3. Intentional or not, that is penalty. End of the debate
4. At 2-1, Croatia had the ressources and mental to come back. They showed it in all previous games)
5. Croatia couldn't prevent France from scoring another two in 6 minutes
6. Croatia can thank Lloris for gifting them a second goal and thank Pogba for missing an easy volley that should have been a fifth goal
7. France did not have a good first half because Kante was sick. As soon as he got subbed at 53', France got back in the game as it should have been from the start
CONCLUSION
Croatia was a very good team. They were better in midfield, possession, and at moving the ball. Congrats for their performance and congrats to Modric for winning the best player's tournament award.
But France had a more solid defense and a better attack
* THE STRONGER TEAM WON *
Peter is totally right . And why FIFA nominates a ref , who can be emotinally involved in the outcome . France eliminated Argentina and this ref. is from Argentina . He tried , very hard , to prove that he is unbiased . He made the scandalous decision being under the pressure . FIFA , shame on you!
janusz chol you can't blame the referee it was the job of VAR
banares hussain
I'm against VAR because it takes something from football , some magic. And , unfortunately bringing VAR created some gray area . Some people in the closed room decide when they use VAR and when they don't and nobody takes responsibility for they decissions anymore . If they really want to use VAR lets give the dessisions to the coaches and limit them , for example , to three and that's it.
janusz chol FIFA is corrupt, who cares only about money.
FIFa and Nike decide who will won the world cup...Fooball is a question of money...don't be fool.... France must won whatever it takes!!! and referee knows it!!
janusz : VAR should have first been used at the 1990 World Cup
in ITALY.
I predicted this exact thing would happen . Thanks Fifa for rewarding drivers. This needs to be fixed immediately . Nobody wants to watch Griezmans dives or any other players get rewarded. Especially with the whole world watching. Disgraceful, Shameful. Still respect for the beatiful game. Not for cheats that ruin it. Croatia is the real winner here regardless of result. Thank you Croatia and all the other Countries that participated in the world cup 2018 . Worst winner to ever be rewarded that i have ever witnessed. Boze sacuvaj. Bog je plako kad vidi da nepravda se desava. Vidjeli ste to ljudi. Samo ova nepravda mora prestat.
Eldin Citak
How did Croatia is a winner they are behind 4-1 ? Have a little knowledge about football.
Even without the Free kick, we win 3-2... where is the real winner jealous guy ?
That level of play and you have to be a bitch.
The momentum was in Croatia's favor after the tieing goal. You know it and the only unaducated don't know it. Referee saved France twice . First rewarding a dive and second rewarding a accidental hand ball. Please don't argue with facts. France won because of a fix that you young minds don't understand yet. It's extremely hard to notice this. I spend watching soccer and playing sence i was 5 glued to the tv. I could do things nobody even today can do and know all because of countless hours watching and studying movements, reactions, abilities, sight , ability to predict moves in advance and so on. I work as a timekeeper for a Sport complex in Canada, Winnipeg. France won at the end but i wish they weren't helped. This is why i said let them play cause Croatia would have won 100% if the refs did. Stop arguing with facts. Anyways France won and congrats to them.
one word: Pitana
Croatia was better game, the fact is that now football is more tactic than before france played as italian efficient defensively strong using few opportunities
France let purposely Croatia have possession of the ball, but Coatia wasn't able to do something with it, loosing energy in useless playing. Gave place for brilliant counter-attacks by the french team. Beautiful an clever playing by France. I prefer to see a well organized and efficient defence with beautiful counter-attacks than a messy attack with weak defence. Tactic is full part of the game, and in WC final the winner must master this part of the game. That separate men from boys...
Seems pretty obvious the VAR was used to rig the win for France. Croatia's momentum was clearly destroyed by botched handball call by the biased/incompetent Argentinian referee. The ref was acting very dodgy and nervous during video review, which may indicate he was coerced by the boys upstairs into bagging the call. Which he promptly went on to do.
Basically, we ended up seeing more FIFA shenanigans, which we have come to expect when political issues such as multiculturalism are at play. Slap an asterisk on this World Cup, since it was more gifted than earned. Not exactly the first time this has happened. And knowing our old good friend FIFA, it will not be the last.
AFRICA.........WE GOT THIS
Zaki Wadani
How did Africa won? I am from there. But this is not intelligent comment . The country France 🇫🇷 won. Period. Because there are afresh black players doesn’t make it Africa won. The Africans should grow up be mature by now in this age.
congratulations to africa, the world cup winner
@@tilweni are you just mad France won? They are all French, have French nationality, who are you to judge someone by theirs origins
Africa. 1 billion + population..0 World Cups
France, 70 million...2 World Cups 🤷♂️
You can't win against the referee!
Apollo 28 so all 4goals are gift from referee? Or maybe you don’t like the end of result
1st 2 goals are referee goals . Thieves
@Gabriel Lazar
I like fair play, and I dislike unfairness. The match was spoiled by the referee, which makes me dislike the result as well.
Apollo 28 you can't win against money.
Apple : Shut the fuck up, demented loser.
The Croatian team played better football. But France were more realistic, more efficient, perhaps even more intelligent. Les Bleus' strength is exactly this: no matter who they faced, they found the solution to win. Without being brilliant here, they scored four goals, which tells you everything about their level, and their coach's. With his smart moves, Didier Deschamps won the tactical fight. So, whiners & losers get over it!
@benvolio mozart 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷👍🏆⚽🍻 Cheers.....
He is right I like him still remember the 90 when he was best at man United and first of all European champion of 1992
The Croatian President should have won the Golden Hugs award. Lovely Stuff.
hand in the box=penalty, end of discussion.
yea i mean he had exactly 0.01 seconds of time to analyse where the ball is going to go and to put his hand away,he must be very sorry that he isnt as fast as the speed of light as you are probably since you would probably have dodged it
@gchelem
What you say is not true. According to the FIFA rules, only intentional handball has to be punished.
bullshit ! any hand not close to the body in the box is a penalty perisic literally smashed the ball with his hand
You're obviously not familiar with the FIFA rules and prefer to set up your own laws.
If you think one goal by a penalty was all that deflated Croatia as a team, then they do not deserve to be world champions. Biased commentary. You sounded like a Whiner all analysis-long. You take your chances in life, or get comfortable with the sound of your excuses.
Ruyai Croatia wasn’t fucked up in the last minute. They did not create clear cut chances, or even get into the France penalty area. If you gave them 90 more minutes, they weren’t going to score. Lloris even did for them more than they did for themselves since their first goal. France scored clean goals since the start of the second half. France was always going to win.
I don't want to start a fight here.....but.....when a team gets a free penalty kick and an autogoal as a bonus gift.....bro.....to be so lucky is 4 sure an amazing thing.....I just thought that the way Croatia fought was very inspiring
Darth Nexus it wasn’t a free penalty. The ball was impeded from getting into a danger area. He impeded a goal-scoring opportunity. These commentators are looking for a way out of their bad predictions. Its damage control. But to discredit France based on a situation that happens all the time, thats just weak.
I just felt bad 4 Croatia.....I love it when someone fights like they did......till the end......they truly played with their hearts...….don't get me wrong.....I just hate goals like that......and then this autogoal…...it's hard to come back from that......But all in all.....This was a great match......A lot of positive energy after the match as well.....Both teams are winners actually
Shut up Peter. Even at 1-1 you can't predict the future.
Schmeichel is 100% biased. First goal was due to an obvious foul (just watch it again). Second goal was due to hand ball - the fact that the hand ball was not intentional is not the only critetia... the direction of the ball is a greater criteria. The ball was on his way towards the goal, more precisely, towards Grizu who was there in front of the goal. The hand ball changed the direction of the ball. If the ball was directed away from the goal towards a corner, then the unintentional hand ball shouldn't have been a penalty. The penalty was a 100% just call.Forther more, Croatia, which played nicely (respect!) barely made it to the finals - they won twice by penalties... more luck than merit. France won all the way to the top.Croatia got very very lucky not to meet Belgium on their path to the final, because if they did, they would have lost to Belgium - Belgium is a better team.Not to mention that if France had a proper striker (Giroud was lousy), the score would have been higher.Croatia should be proud of their achievments.
you need glasses man.
Goals win games not opinions.
And it doesn't matter whether the goals were scored correctly or given as presents by the referee.
idiote
Thanks Peter, tusind tak.
what can you expect from an englishman and a germans guy :)? not to give credit to france .you have to be out of your mind to think that was not a penalty or france do not deserve to win.. croatian won 3 games by penalty on which they were outplayed they have been lucky and won the heart of so many including me because they are small country and i wanted a new world cup winner
Feel it Smeichel, neither you and you son are having it.
That guy just doesn't kow football ..
Absolutely he is right. Croatia was robbed and I'm so happy the whole world saw it and know
Peter did you not agree that it was penalty for Russia when Pique could do nothing with his handball that was far worst than today why the double standards and hypocrisy by you and other pundits and media
Well to be fair...Pique held his hand above his head, which is an unnatural position to have your hand. Perisic jumped up and his hands were moving down in a natural movement.
CroRaider88 mate you have no idea what your talking about go look at it the ball went past Pique head he was facing the other way with his back turned the Russian player headed the ball full blast on the back of his hand you need your arms to jump up to give you the elevation and balance
You need your hands to jump up, but he had his hand vertically above his head. That is not a natural movement even when you jump. Don't you think every defender would jump up with both hands above their heads to prevent any kind of header, if that would be counted as natural movement?
Schmeichel was a great goalkeeper, but a terrible commentator.
A deliberate hand ball in the penalty area is a penalty, period.
RT propaganda as usual
learn football rules the croatian hand change direction of the ball
France dived for a free kick. Croatia helped them and also wanted to throw a shout out to Maradona in this world cup!
DarkbyDesign : There was no dive. That was a clear cut foul, you pervert.
Champions du monde. ✌💪🐔🇫🇷🏆🍾😳
Penalty was...The moment??? How can you say that Croatia would win that match if there was no penalty? Pogba scored...Mbappe scored...Croatia has dominated but scored only 1 goal....France defense was very strong....and football is attack...and also defense....Brasil has very good attack...but where are they? Good night....lol
He ment mental moment. Because is not equal to come back 1 time or 2
Croatia scored 2 goals not 1 as you claim. and other 2 for France wouldn't happen if different referee. Will go to extra time. Full stop .
Before that, i'll see WC french team at The champs-élysées hahahahaha I live here...
Keep on living, French don't like you. They never will.
Cristian French arrogant natin. Croatian people more simple . All visitors feel vwry welcome in my country. Many people rating the most beautiful country in Europe . It's amazing! So popular ! I really feel for second rated people in France. I personally don't like french language and all about that country. It is pretty but my homeland is like paradise. Zagreb is celebrating as well.

Same. A nation does not define itself by heritage. It does define itself by solidarity, language and culture - no matter if black or not.
Racist of shit
Martin - racist nonsense.
excuse me, but the referee also incorrectly called 3 fouls on France which weren't where it interrupted France from being face to face with Croatia's goalkeeper. Could have been 2 or 3 more goals FOR France with adequate refereeing, so don't start about it being one-sided. Errors are being made for both sides
He didn't like it black won world cup
You don't play the final game, you win it
2:22
7:42 LOL
Of course this is penalty, without kick with the hand, there would so many french players behind ... this commentator is full of shit.
DreamWalker886 the game stops the second it hits the hand. There is no intention for that hand to block the path of the ball. Reff should have overrulled it as for a penallty of hand ball there has fo be intention but there was not. As for first goal of France player offside and is involved in actionand Griezman dove. What you say is invalid. Reff should have given Griezman yellow for dive or mark it offside after the cross did nothin. You can make a mistake ofc even not owerrulle the pen but to much mistakes went to France side
DreamWalker : You are shit and even your filthy mouth is full of it.
How about yours? full of brown stuff!
Poor Schmeichel...
Referee issues are part of the game. True champions can deal with that. If you're devastated because of a referee issue, then you don't deserve to win. It took a long time for France to understand that, and to build a strong self-confidence, whatever happens with referee. Croatia has to learn too.
It's World Cup, childish excuses are useless. (I remember, back in the day, France's team complaining about quality of the grass. Guess what ? they lose ! They started to win when they abandoned this loser attitude). France won as a true winner. period.
France where the heavy weights,Croatia middle weights,France hit hard & down went the fighting Croates
Croatia scored 2 goals: one for France and the other for Croatia! LMFAO! What a bunch of whiners. Get over it!
Si,make your hand fare of your body and interrupted the Ball go in dangerouse erea of your goal...couldn't .be.. .penalized anymore??is that what thoses"specialists"said....So.. ..when can the réf.give the penalty than,only for broken legs??

Nestor Pitana-french
All but two born in France
Proud!
I'm not too sure what is meant by this. The French are proud of their citizens born in France of foreign born parents: these players were born in France, speak French, were trained and raised in France and wouldn't be able to live in the countries mentioned. No-one questions the multiple immigrant origins of American players (South or North) why question those of a country that has massive immigration like France? Football recruits its players in poorer neighborhoods with lots of immigrants. Immigrants have been shown to be a more dynamic sector of society with more upward mobility than their native sociological equivalents. Big European nations have lots of immigrants and their youth is of mixed origin. Mbappe is a wonderful example: his father is from Cameroon (and has a German first name), his mother is from Algeria (possibly second generation already) and he feels 100% French and is perceived as such. How else would you have it? How does their origin belittle the victory or diminish the aura of French football? Or was that not the point? What was the point?
As for the final game, I regret the arbitration on the "hand" - at the time it appeared to me to be a "hand on the ball" with a decisive effect on its trajectory but as a referee I would not have called it so as not to disproportionately reverse the dynamics of the game (because I think it was unintentional). By such a drastic decision, he stole the victory away not so much from Croatia (I understand that Croatians can feel that way) but from France: too many people doubt unfairly that France deserves the victory. But Lloris would not have made his absurd mistake had France been in another configration (it was a bad psychological mistake based on France's strong lead at that point) and the come-back of the second period would have happened anyway - a tighter game with the same outcome I believe because the French team were paralyzed at first (lack of experience and difficulty with their status as favorites) but the momentum they gained in the second half was not only due to the leading score but to the feeling that they had to really "deserve" the victory. The Croatian team has outstanding players and very good sportsmanship. The individual rewards were well deserved: Modric (best player) and Mbappe (best young player).
racist nonsense.
Big nations are multi-ethnic, multicultural - whatever you want to call it and Croatia is a tiny crumb of what could have been a great multicultural/multiethnic nation: Yugoslavia. The fact is the division of a nation State into small "ethnically pure" micro States is a regression and nothing to be proud of. Now that should get me some hate comments! But the idea that African French aren't "really French" stems from a very different concept of what a nation is.
Again, so funny to see everybody hates that France won. Stupid comments about Croatia would have been leading without the first 2 goals of France, when nobody knows what would have happened, Nobody knows if Croatia would have scored then, and for the penalty, i met many people including Croatians who saw a penalty, so really, so funny!
ben Zurich i met many people who think it wasnt a penalty including Africans.
Ivan Galić what an ignorant comment. Whinner, get a life 🍻
Ivan Galić let me guess, this comment is because you are a stupid racist and you pretend to make a joke about players’roots? Haha another one, you guys should get together and stay there 👍🏻

That is what u get with cheat.

You are so unfair, i rewatch the action and it is obviously a penalty, he block the ball like a true handball goalkeeper.
Liberté Egalité, Arbitre and of course Griezmann, sad very sad
no very cool we are the champions
I love all this speculation as to what would have happened and why and when... Whatever happens, your job is to make things happen and react accordingly. France played under par, even poorly to start - jitters, Croatia's strategy, whatever... It's done. See you in 4 years - 2 if the Euro Cup is on your calendar.
It was deliberate and intentional as most defenders would instinctively put their arms behind their back or close to the chest if they really want to follow the rules and to not be judged in violation of the rules but instead we saw Perisic obviously instinctively FLAILED his arm in attempt to at least alter the trajectory of the ball EXACTLY like previously VAR punished PKs in the tourney such as Umtiti's or Pique's. Not as stupidly and inexplicably as Umtiti's or Pique's but it fitted the criteria of a violation of the rules, deliberate and intentional.....
Dionyssus Adhie Giggs was right on another channel, everything looks ten times worse on a slow motion. it was a bad call, ruined the game. France deserve the trophy, but not in this way.
I've never seen anyone jump 60 cm in the air with his hands behind him and Perišić is not a defender.
france deserve nothing!At first,it was not a freekick!second mistake, the same freekick Pogba was in offside!third-sixth mistakes dont given corner for croatia or dont given a freekick! seventh mistake dont given a penalty for mandzukic! and you say france deserve???!!!!france bought the WC 2018!!its really a shame
He was airborne and struck by another player
faithtonejason There's also another channel called FIFATV where you can see the replay of the incident and it really was spot on as Perisic deliberately put his arm towards the trajectory of the ball FASTER than the speed of the ball, even in slo-mo....
No team from Eastern Europe will ever win world cup! They can reach the final and that's all.Congrats to France they are the world champion period.
Samuel Williams true we are not colonial supewrpowers
@Tomislav Petek
You mean Eastern teams are not equipped with players from Africa who win the games for them. Well, that still doesn't work out for teams like England, they're still unsuccessful.
so true ahahahhahahah,they are proud of a fake nation,put together a team of 23 real frenchmen,they probably wouldnt even beat russia,you know what,i challenge you to name 23 real french players whose origins are only from france,without google youll name 3 at the most ahahhahahah
It was so unfair . Everybody will remember that. You great y et couldn't dominate game ? 2 gifted Africans guys and yet you talk like France is something. ,Arrogant nation . All Europe will tell you that . We have better team overalls .
Samuel Williams you right remember cehoslovakia years60in final with brassil 3-1for brassil
What a load of crap
stephanepamplona : You are crap and full of it, fucken tennis lover.
If the penalty against Portugal was given this is also a penalty
disgrace
Awesome :)
Well just to add ! We got second place ,that is ok! But France was not oponent! Africans with few french won!
bullshit. thx RT
The croatian player intentionnally touch the ball with his hand = Penalty. Nothing to discuss about it. Keep your arm along your body next time, this is football not handball.
SUPER BOWL LII : CRAP. WINTER OLYMPICS : BORING. STANLEY CUP FINALS : OK. UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL : GREAT. WIMBLEDON : SICKENING.
NBA FINALS : SUCKED. SO FAR, ONLY ONE MEMORABLE EVENT DOMINATED THE
SPORTS SCENE IN 2018, AND THAT WAS THE FIFA WORLD CUP SOCCER FINALS,
FROM RUSSIA.
Africa won... Not France! France would not pass qualifications..
Don't say this, they still have the referee on their side, lol!
Martin you think so?then all Africans American win olimpc gold for America how that sound?
80% of the team of France is of African origin , lol
(Senegal, Mali, Ghana, Cameroun, Angola, Algeria, Guinea, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Congo, Morocco, Togo...)
Martin
Useless comment. I am from Africa but France won. The Africans need to grow up and be real . The continent full of immature populations with a lot of poverty and empty pride.
yet another racist comment
Fuck FIFA
100% penalty. It's a clear hand.
Griezmann minded the croatian.
Leave fairy land and come back to real world please :)
Stop being jealous of france. :)
You mean Africa?
Football rules say that refferee can dismiss handball if there was no intent to move the trajectory of the ball. So if the player accidently plays with arm it is not a penalty! that`s what is controvertial! It can go both ways and refferee was not sure even after VAR... Witch proves my point
Enuogyan france peace?yea right. You have 12 deads.
Croatia 0.peace ist lost in france
Come to croatia haven on earth ,no riots no rasisam ,no raeping and we dont support pedofiles like france
12 deads from what ?
He said"clear mistake"...lolIt was penalty,stop crying,and France was better anyway
A bunch of false nonsense information. Congratulations 🇫🇷!!
Big games is sloved and decidedby big players .france had 3 big players and moments
griezman,pogba,mbappe ,solved the game ,won the chamiopnship and decided the game.hardluck croatia
THIS GAME CLEARLY WAS DECIDED BY REFEREES THREE HUGE MISTAKES THAT ALL WENT AT CROATIAS COST AND AGAINST AN TEEM LIKE FRANCE YOU CANT RECOVER FROM THAT
Karl Anal : Referee Nestor Pintana, did a fantastic job, officiating
the final. My hats off to him. If i would have worked that match,
i would have done the exact, same thing myself.
