    Do you hate that this one went to penalties? Cause it feels like both teams earned this penalty opportunity.

    Look at how intense the fans are! Absolutely nobody looking at a phone. They are riveted to this game!

    edit- there are people taking pictures with their phones but they aren’t scrolling.

    argentina absolutely dominated the game for 80 minutes and deserved to win the game, but then blackout happened and france took advantage of it

    but after that, maybe france was somewhat better team and this is definitely the best way to end the game

    Now that was a game! Did you notice on the winning penalty kick that the kicker pointed his lead foot towards the right (a tell for a goalie as to where ball will go); but then kicked the ball across his body to the left side of the goal?

    Watched the game while LIVE texting with my daughter who was watching back home with the whole family. My wife sent me a picture of her crying at the end….she was so happy. So engaged in the sport. Proud dad.
