However, two stupid positional blunders in defense out of the blue, and 2:0 turned into 2:2. Both goals were scored in regulation time by Mbappe, who was not visible on the field for almost the entire game, as was the French squad as a whole.
By the way, the Cheka-OGPU noticed long ago that the Argentines are weak at finishing meetings. A similar situation arose against the Dutch, and the Australians also passed through with some difficulty. The conclusion suggests itself: these are probably features of the Latin American character. With all the diversity of “stars” in Argentina.
Then, at 2:2, almost a drama unfolded. During the second additional fifteen minutes, the omnipresent Messi seemed to bring victory to his own – 3:2. Again we managed to grab a penalty kick into our own goal literally 5 minutes before the end – 3:3.
Well, oh my! – Apparently, Argentina fans lamented in Russian. Russian fans of the Argentines certainly swore obscenely.
In the penalty shootout, Mbappe and Messi missed again. But Mbappe’s partners let him down. It’s a little strange, isn’t it, that the temperamental Latin Americans turned out to be more cold-blooded, more accurate. And they brought the long-awaited World Cup to the team! Even if it’s a penalty. The regulations are like this, nothing can be done.
…We were right in many ways when we doubted the qualifications of the Polish referee even before the final match.
With inconsistent, sometimes strange decisions, he only irritated the players and fans.
Congratulations to the South Americans and Messi personally! The path to the championship turned out to be too thorny.
