I predict 4-1 to Argentina. I know that won't be popular and it would be nice if they win. However, they've done very well to get this far. Still you never know.

1-1 then we’ll score to win 2-1 in extra time.

CurlewKate · 15/07/2026 15:08

Linneker said penalties.

HotHotterHottest · 15/07/2026 15:09

0-0

England win 4-3 on penalties

randomchap · 15/07/2026 15:15

1-0 to Argentina. England to have a man sent off, Argentina to do their usual dirty tricks and fouls and yet no yellow cards at all

The fix is in. Messi must be in the final

XDownwiththissortofthingX · 15/07/2026 15:22

Maradona scored his first ever international goal for Argentina at Hampden Park. His first match as manager was also at Hampden

He also scored one of the greatest World Cup goals of all time in the QF in 1986...

when he outjumped England Goalkeeper Peter Shilton and headed the ball into the English net.

Absolutely. Messi is best pals with the referee personally picked by him. Whats not to like.

YABVVU to post this outside of the World Cup board.

Still, fingers crossed it will all be over by tomorrow.

Anyone predicting a win for the side they support is BU as they don't understand the Law of Jinx.

Now bugger off and put on the exact same clothes you were wearing for all the other wins, and prepare to watch in the same place. Honestly, this is basic stuff.

I successfully predicted the last two England matches 😆 my husband told me I should’ve put a bet on!

I think it’ll be Argentina win, 3-2

I hope you are right although 6-0 would be better

It finishes Sunday, no matter who's in the final

SakuraTea · 15/07/2026 15:53

1-1 and then Argentina go through on penalties

I didn't even know there was a world cup board. Apologies

DD1 thinks England will get to the final because we'll be in Scotland visiting my family. We were also in Scotland visiting my family when England won the Euros in 2022 so there is a precedent. Clearly I don't care all that much about football since I didn't factor it in while planning our holidays.

LlynTegid · 15/07/2026 16:05

I predict biased refereeing by the match referee and VAR.

I would like Argentina to lose, even if Spain easily then beat England, just to annoy Infantino.

Propagandalf · 15/07/2026 16:08

Rothburypixie · 15/07/2026 14:51

I personally like VARgentina 😂

I think Argentina will win sadly I think it will be 2-1

I came here to say 2-1 to Argentina as well.

Germany is normally our nemesis and tends to knock us out, but they were out of the cup so early this year!

FFSItsTooHot · 15/07/2026 16:55

I hope you are wrong,but I have a feeling you won't be. I had a dream the night before the England V Norway match that England won 2 -0. I got the score wrong,but they did win! I haven't had a premonition about the England V Argentina game though! I thought it really odd that I was dreaming about a football match because apart from a casual interest when England are playing in the World Cup, I have zero interest in football!

I realise that but that’s another four days. Plus if we get beaten in the semi then no bank holiday - win/win

Sarah2891 · 15/07/2026 17:06

2-1 England

JHound · 15/07/2026 17:07

GoneWithTHeWindJammers · 15/07/2026 12:33

Whatever the score England have gone a lot further than .... well, you know the non-Argentinians who are supporting Argentina

😄😄😄

JHound · 15/07/2026 17:08

3 - 2 Engjand. I would like Argentina to lose because I cannot deal with the racism of the team / country.

But if they beat England then I would like Spain to knock them out.

PetulaGordeno · 15/07/2026 17:12

GoneWithTHeWindJammers · 15/07/2026 12:48

I think penalties, with Messi missing one and Pickford pulling off a magnificent save to restrict Argentina to 3/5. Then it's a question of whether 4 of England's penalty takers can score.

Cor I was thinking the same! Messi often misses penalties but there’s no way they would stop their talisman from stepping up.
I can remember us playing them in 86, and then Beckham getting sent off in 98.
Italia 90 was my favourite - nobody expected us to get that far, and it was glorious.

1990 was THE World Cup.

There’s never been another one like that.

West Germany have technically Won The Football, despite not existing any more 😄

LaurieFairyCake · 15/07/2026 18:17

3-3 extra time/penalties

Argentina to win 🥇

itsgettingweird · 15/07/2026 18:19

SwankyPants · 15/07/2026 12:43

2-1 to us

That’s my prediction too!

In predict Bellingham and Kane to score in second half after Argentina are 1-0 up at half time!
