OT: World Cup 2022

[SUX2BU]

Penalties are such an ignominious end to this kind of a game.

Please let one team win on a real play.

Almost happened there ….. twice

Kinda like the Vikings game yesterday.

PK's will be anti climatic after the second half and extra time that these to team played

 

[flyingkiwi]

Shame about penalties but man

I think I get this football thing now

 

[kanadalainen]

Here we go

 

[WolfgangPuck]

Not liking PK to end this game
Maybe should adapt 3 vs 3 like in hockey.
Reduce players like 8 vs 8

 

[bustamente]

World Cup delivers a spectacular game but losing with PK's just sucks and cheapens it

 

[bustamente]

The French up against it with that miss

 

[flyingkiwi]

Aïe I don't think France is coming back from that.

Bravo Argentina!!!

 

[surixon]

Happy for Messi!

 

[WolfgangPuck]

There it is for Argentina
It was epic final match
Not liking PK to decide it all
1st goal in OT should have decided it

 

[bustamente]

Maradona looking down and smiling maybe looking up

 

[kanadalainen]

Happy for Messi!

Yeah I really am as well. So many world cups for this great player without the big enchilada.

 

[SUX2BU]

Leaves still suck

Yeah I like sudden death in OT too. Its logical, at least to me.

Who gives a shit about Drake?

Best World Cup final I have seen and that’s coming from a guy who doesn’t like penalties. So many great chances at both ends.

 

[KingBogo]

Not a huge soccer fan, but that was fun to watch.

 

[SUX2BU]

The NHL keeper of the Stanley Cup would have found the trophy half an hour ago

 

[SUX2BU]

Good guess OP on the winner

 

[ThinIce61]

Good guess OP on the winner

Argentina winning won me some money(edit). Beyond that, like other here I am happy for Messi. Incredible player.

They used to do that. Check out David Trezuguet for France against Italy in the Euro 2000 Final.

Best game I've seen in any soccer game anywhere. I don't think PKs cheapen it at all.

Interesting!

I didn't use the term "cheapen" but I do have a strong sense that penalties are not football. The goalie is at a disadvantage.
