FIFA WORLD CUP 2026 - DISCUSSION AND WATCHALONG THREAD ⚽️. Part 8

[placemats]

Let's continue the discussion.

Phew! Anyone who predicted 8+ goals needs to do the lottery!

Back of the net!

What a brilliant match

Was that a selfless gesture by Bellingham?

Really lovely for Bellingham to give it to Saka. A hat trick 🥰

AHH, well done Saka! I hate penalties. I always feel so sorry for the striker if they miss or for the goalie if they score.

Bellingham's a future England captain, that's for sure.

Quality game or what

think I’m more excited about this than the Argie Bargie game !

I'm predicting 7 mins.

At least with this match I feel we have left the tournament on as much of a high as possible

Yes very much so wanted him to have the hat trick

I'm only watching the final cos it's on at a normal time. Cheering for Spain, obvs. And Mbappe for the golden boot!

Just when I think I couldn’t love him more

7 mins

Thank you!

Good guess!

Gold star for you!!

France haven’t disgraced themselves in this half which I am pleased about

Wot. How can a corner be offside?!

⭐️

If only i was 10 years (ok 20) younger 😜

Will there be a little 'bronze medal' ceremony after the match?

This is the best game of the tournament so far, proper football end to end. Hope the final is as good.

Can France score 2 goals in 6-7 minutes?

It was the pass back after taking it, not the actual corner
