World Cup

Sounds yummy.

I presume they think that France will win?

They hope it will be an England- France final fancy that 😂

1 more hour and a bit, until the start of the game.

I think I have enjoyed this World Cup more than others?

I am wondering if it is because, in part, there were more teams competing?

And some football rules seemed to have changed for the better?

Spain have definitely upped their game!

Françe are getting nearly.

Narky!

More than narky now, worried.

Oh dear. It wasn't to be.
I'll save the champagne and nibbles for tomorrow

Well there’s a turn up. Well done though Spain.

Well done Spain, well deserved.

Yes, excellent play from Spain.

Well done Spain ⚽️

Best team won 🇪🇸

Well done Spain!

Yay España! 🇪🇸

My French friends were sadly disappointed. She went to bed. He said he's Breton and not really French.
We thoroughly enjoyed our crêpes, washed down with wine.
I hung the Breton flag on our Flagpole and picked red white and blue flowers for the table.
Sorry France 😟

He said he's Breton and not really French.
That's so funny, I've heard it a million times living there! Typically FRENCH response!
Glad the crêpes were nice.

Looking forward to tomorrow's match.

I think it is lovely to be Nationalistic [as long as it doesnt go too far]. Each Country's citizens cheering on their own Country.
Sport does it so well. Most of the time.

I dont think I have much idea of the score of tonight's match.
And neither the trouble in it or afterwards.

There are conspiracy theories online that the referee is very pro Argentina. We shall see.

There’s no denying that Argentina are a very good team, we just have to hope that England are on form and beat them, because they are a very good team too. Let’s hope it’s good tempered, for the players and fans alike.

I posted on here not to discount Spain in last night's semi. They are a team who improve with every game in the major tournaments. They deserved their win and their place in the final.
I have a sense of unease about tonight's game. Infantino is corrupt, no two ways about it and the ref for our game knows Messi very well. He was officiating in the match when Argentina won the World Cup in Qatar and has regularly refereed Inter Miami games, Lionel Messi's club. I would prefer a completely impartial ref to officiate tonight. We shall see how this pans out.
Infantino is a closet Argentine fan as his slip of the tongue comment after Egypt came close to knocking them out, shows only too well, even though he tried to cover it up by saying he was neutral. Yeah, right! Infantino would love to see a new record set at this World Cup and that is for a team to win this tournament back to back. And that team is Argentina. Messi has never played against England. Come on our lads make it a night he wished he had never met us.

I had a message from one of our GSs well done Grandma, you said Spain had a good chance 🇪🇸🇪🇸

8pm tonight. I am starting to get excited.

I do not keep up with sports of any kind, but I saw this morning that England is doing very well! England vs Argentina I believe?

I am excited for you all! Great job!

They are in the semi-finals imaround.
Winner plays Spain in the final this Sunday.
