Argentina v France:-
No Plays

Pre Final Analysis:-
Well what a cracking final match up we have here folks could be a potential blockbuster, books have this 50 50 in my opinion Argentina will come out in top the quality Argentina possess in midfield slight exceeds France, Mac Allister is a fine young all round midfielder with positive energy, tireless warrior with no weaknesses in his game. Enzo Fernandez will be the key difference this guy will probably become the best midfielder in the world and for sure a 100 million euros move for him soon, has everything to his game plays like a senior pro with bags of experience can run all day can tackle but boy can he shoot and pick out passes, watch him make an impact on Sunday.

Paredes experienced reliable defensive midfielder back playing in Serie A always liked him at Roma didn't quit work out in Paris maybe a point to prove? Rodrigo De Paul well what can I say about this engine guess describing him as an engine says it all really, practically Messi's bodyguard does all of the dirty work a strong fit versatile midfielder look up my pre tournament analysis on him hit the nail on the head with him becoming so important for this team, Mac Allister, De Paul, Fernandez, Paredes should be packed in the middle for Sunday will condense the space for France and make it a difficult day not so sure Tchouameni & Rabiot have enough to handle that for 120 minutes, Griezmann has been doing well deeper within the framework of the team but let's not kid ourselves he's an attacking player and this is Argentina not Morocco France are lacking bodies in that midfield space danger signs, Argentina have Di Maria, Palacios, Rodriguez to add depth in case of injuries or fresh legs these are quality players do not underestimate fatigue going into a 7th game.

Clean bill of health for Argentina except Papu Gomez but they have more than enough to cover that loss, some rumblings going on the French have been hit by a virus, Coman, Varane, Konate key CBs should recover in time and take part but take that information as you want, slight knocks for Tchouameni & Theo Hernandez I've heard little niggles, viruses, fatigue all come into play.

Now I expect Argentina to win even in 90 minutes but won't be surprised it drags on to ET, but quality should prevail barring an absolute howler from Scaloni in his tactical decisions which I doubt, Morocco & England outplayed France at times that should be a worry but this is France Argentina need to stay patience play there game and holes will appear guarantee this France team gives you chances fact.

Pre Final Analysis:-
Szymon Marciniak is in charge a world class referee no nonsense polish juggernaut bad news for Argentina he won't tolerate any of there antics or fazed by pressure from fans, players & staff.

Won't be any changes for both teams except Acuna coming back in for Tagliafico depends how serious the virus and knocks affecting the French players are, Alvarez will give Varane a torrid time Theo Hernandez came out to the media and hinted he was confidence in handling Messi so you all know what that means watch his battle with Saka bless the poor fella, Mbappe is the obvious threat Molina is a strong RB Simeone doesn't sign you if your not made of the tough stuff but RB has protection De Paul will double up and put in a shift, Molina and Montiel aren't slow either and both in there mid twenties so stamina shouldn't be a factor and with 5 subs a ready made quality replacement at RB in Montiel is handy to freshen it up still it is Mbappe but one has to always see an edge.

Not fully convinced by Kounde at RB either I think he has a mistake in him and with this Benzema talk can't have a good effect within the French camp the current holder of the Balon d'Or will always have a case to return and take some part will be interesting to see I think he has zero chance knowing Deschamps but that lingering issue can't have a positive effect in preparations for France.

No plays for me in the final as I already have 3 units riding on Argentina future remember to enjoy and gamble safe, regarding the 3rd place playoff all I can say is don't get buried shall I say it again? 'Nothing is a lock in sport' regardless of past trends etc on a personal note would love Morocco to win a medal one of the best achievements in football if they manage to do it.

Make     nice tourney youre having.    figured id stop in and wish you a happy holiday season and GL remainder of year.  

you hear Theos interview too ehh? being a Serie A guy as well, dont you wonder what exactly gave him the confidence of saying that.? (laughing)  . Id stop short of saying Szymon is 'world class', when you consider the other other options FIFA had to choose from for the final it is a bit suprising.  (not to mention the 3rd place match as well). in any case, just hoping a good match and for sake of each teams supporters, pray dont go to PK.  

Spec  nice to see you pal thank you, I wish you the same enjoy the final bud.

Great insight.

Post Final Analysis:-
Well what a great end to the World Cup, firstly congratulations to Argentina my pick to win it before the tournament and I never bet against them once in all 7 of there matches so full profits returned, what a blast the best match of football I've witness and a great tournament for me personally was hard work but patience and experience paid off in the end literally.

Referee was class got all calls right never put a foot wrong, Argentina were the better team for most of the final lack of changes from Scaloni harmed them but his decision to start Di Maria proved correct all game France couldn't handle him just as I thought France's midfield was non existent Argentina's was superior.

The difference in coaches was evident Deschamp's nearly won it with a masterclass just like the Netherland's game straight out of Van Gaal's handbook he throws on two strikers early Argentina couldn't handle the physicality what a lead to drop again like against the Netherlands this was Scaloni's fault for not changing the shape and providing more protection, Argentina were hanging on in ET what a save by Martinez one of the reason I backed Argentina to win it all before the start of the tournament was because of him a true giant between the sticks both physically & mentally, I just knew Argentina would win on Pens they have far better technical players and a keeper specialist, Deschamps subbed off most of his technically gifted players I was just praying they made it to penalties, Messi made it 3-2 and I have no idea what Montiel was doing at the end very reckless for lack of control with his arms luckily he made up for it with his winning penalty.

De Paul was a real warrior today he will feel it tomorrow, so happy for Messi & his family and friends well deserved the true GOAT been a fan since he was 16 years old what he has given to this sport no words can give justice, thoroughly enjoyed this tournament all aspects the winnings are not the important part unforgettable special moments are, I wish everyone a Merry Christmas & Happy New Year see you again in 4 years oh wait I mean 3 and a half years ;) special thanks to all the Coverians who popped by in this thread keep doing what your doing guys Covers is great because of you posters.
