BruceVC Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 That was the most eventful and exciting WC final I have ever watched. France seemed doomed in the first half and then came back in the second half. And extra time was equally as exciting I always wonder if PK are the best way to decide victory but I suppose you need to find a way to get a result?

Gorth Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I know they flip a coin to determine sides at the start, but that would be rather unsporting to decided the outcome that way in case of a draw. Since duel to the death with swords is off the table too, maybe toe wrestling?

Malcador Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Is just L'Equipe anyway. FIFA should just give the two a match ban or something, but no big deal. Some really weird refereeing this tournament. Still love Neymar getting away with a blatant tactical foul (actually a LOT of these went uncarded) and Messi having a handball ignored. 1 Why has elegance found so little following?

majestic Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Well, they already did all of that. Drawling lots, full replays, deciding games by alternating corner kicks, the works. Curious why none of that stuck around for modern football. No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
