That isn’t “shithousing” that’s just pure disrespect. Martinez is not a nice guy at all, Infact not many of the Argie players are, they have little class.

Bit of a dick move, really. You'd hope Messi would tell him to wind his neck in, given Mbappe's his teammate.

It’s the same guy that was visually fist pumping towards Mbappe when he scored, I doubt he’s bothered.

Wholesome photo of the day: Mohammed VI, King of Morocco, greets every member of the Moroccan squad - and their mothers - at his palace in Rabat:

The King will also award local honours to every player, for their heroic efforts in the colours of the Atlas Lions at the Wold Cup.

Mbappe hardly reserved his emotions when Kane missed his penalty.

He also held PSG to ransom and demanded a say in their player and staff recruitment for some reason so he's hardly a whiter than white character himself.

Comes across as incredibly cocky too so f*** him and f*** the French.

Now the dust has settled a bit, was this the best World Cup ever? Or at least in recent times?

Purely talking on the pitch of course. It seemed to have a bit of everything. Good quality play in most games, plenty of goals (most goals ever in a tournament), third highest goals per game ratio in the last 40 years, it had shocks and underdog wins, African presence late in the tournament, Europe vs South America final.

Has to be up there surely?

It was probably the best of the last few tournaments, but no-one can remember every world cup ever. From what I remember it was no different to plenty of other world cups, but the final was very good.

In short, no.

Personally thought it was pretty naff. The final was an all timer and the Argentina v Holland game was a cracker, bar that there wasn't a game I thought 'wow this is some top class international football'. Didn't help that the only time there was some atmosphere was when either Morocco or Argentina played, the stadiums were very nice but there was nothing from the crowds.

It was ok, but the first week had a lot of boring games with goalless halves. The amount of goals being more than previous tournaments is a bit misleading I think, because there were plenty of low-scoring games but things got skewed by two or three very high-scoring ones which gives a non-representative average. The round of 16 all went according to expectation other than Morocco, which was pretty dull. The final was the best one I can remember, but overall I think the previous two tournaments were both better...
