man that last pass to messi in the final sequence was just too high to handle well, otherwise he may have been able to pull something off

Crazy how stretched France was in the final seconds. Exhilarating stuff

I can't believe thus is going to OT

It was there for Argentina

Still everything to win, but Argentina blew it big time

Better take care of this now for FRA

Or else I give Arg the edge in PKs

By golly, I legit thought we were on a way to a boring finale.

Also, that was one of the dumbest penalties to cause by Argentina. Totally shifted the momentum of the game.

Mbappe is feeling it now.

The ref saved Argentina from that counter by stopping the attack for no reason and giving a yellow card. What a tool :banghead:

Commentators were talking about how Argentina were starting to toy with France with how they were passing it around, how they let up a little.

This was still 2-0.

Moments later, the French penalty.

And here we are.

That's all France needed. Two slivers.

And here we are.

What a turn.

Just incredible.

Messi playing quite poor without Di Maria tbh.

2nd goal started from a Messi mistake (giving up the ball at the midfield line).

France playing with high pressure and going all out.

I'd hate to be the one who had to defend them! They want every loose ball, live or die.

they have shown time and time again they will let teams back into the game as long as other team fights back.

I feel kind of sick to my stomach with nerves and I don't even have a horse in the race, really.

I can only imagine what invested fans must feel.

the stoppage hurts france b/c it allows argentina to take a deep breath.
