Argentina v France, predictions, with poll

[souljacker]

The Carabao Cup is back this week. Good luck to Alexis Mac Allister who won the World Cup last night, and is due to turn out for Brighton at The Valley against Charlton on Wednesday.

I'll be surprised if we see any of either teams players this year.

It's disappointing that France lost.

Nah, it's funny as fuck

Poll's going well. You still have 10 minutes to vote for Argentina on penalties.

Just flagrant disrespect to the majesty of the Carabao Cup.

If I were him I'd go for a bit of a break before returning. But I'll bet attendance goes up when he does.

It's disappointing that France lost. Very disappointing. But it is only a game. I was on the edge of my seat as it went into ET.

The new European qualification format for the 2026 World Cup which will include your teams France , Portugal and Spain will be announced in January 2023

Managed to nip in before the deadline for a bit of Terry-esque glory

It was an exciting game, looked like it was going Argies way then France, then extra time, penalties, that last penalty taker for Argentina was cool as a cucumber wasn't he, no pressure, just the world championship on that one penalty and he only 24 years old, magic!

Let's leave it with this, an image for the ages.

Oh, Hollis did it already.

exclusive match report from our correspondent in Qatar

 

[pbsmooth]

Qatar 2022 has been one of the safest World Cups ever. With the lowest ever levels of hooliganism, violence, and alcoholism. The least number of arrests and some of the best behaved fans of all time. Which just goes to show - it was the gays causing all the trouble…

 

[JimW]

Although we missed the cup, we've decided to recreate the experience for our holidays next year. Found a cottage ten blokes died building, are taking a flash drive with all the games and have locked our gay daughter in a cupboard. That's right, two weeks self Qataring.

 

[Hollis]

Incredible thinking this save made all the difference..

 

[belboid]

Both the French players who missed their penalties were black. Hope that doesn't work out the way it did here.

sady, it did

There was racist abuse posted to Rashford's online accounts after England went out.

A couple of the French lads got some too. The irony being that has it not been for their black players they’d likely have lost by at least 2-0 in normal time.

Finally, he's hitting the big leagues!

Well let’s hope not. So far you’re the only person to mention skin colour.

Well, it has.

France trio subjected to vile racist abuse on social media after World Cup final

France lost the World Cup final to Argentina after a penalty shootout in Qatar, with three members of Didier Deschamps' squad receiving sickening racist abuse in the immediate aftermath

www.mirror.co.uk

The French players have all received numerous racist messages on social media, including monkey and banana emojis. Tchouameni, 22, and Kolo Muani, 24, have limited comments and closed them off respectively, while Coman’s posts remain free to reply to.

A spokesperson for Meta, the company which owns Instagram, as well as Facebook and Whatsapp told the Athletic: “We don’t want racist abuse on Instagram, and we’ve removed the disgusting comments for breaking our rules.

“We also want to help protect people from having to see this abuse in the first place, which is why we’ve developed Hidden Words, a feature that filters offensive comments and DMs, and Limits, which hides comments and DMs from people who don’t follow you, or only followed you recently.
