Rob this is why 1 billion people are watching!

Poor defending by Vida to give up a corner.

[BSLSteveBirrer]

Disagree with the announcers. Not a hand ball. Arm was hardly extended and did NOT move toward the ball.

[NewMarketSean]

What are they reviewing here? It hit his hand, what does that mean?

[BSLSteveBirrer]

Wow I am surprised that was called a PK.....2-1 France.

[BSLSteveBirrer]

Wow ref don't think thats a yellow at all.

How so? Croatia is the better team so far. Or are you saying this because of the own goal and PK?

[BSLSteveBirrer]

Lots of discussion on the soccer ref forum about the PK. Mixed opinions but seems to be more toward the not a PK than being a PK. Plus the use of VAR is supposed to be a clear and obvious error.

12th own goal of the tournament (previous record was 6).

First own goal in a final ever,

First VAR awarded penalty in a final.

Another set piece goal. Insane the percentage of goals that have come from set pieces.

Croatia was the better side (and by a fair bit)....but they are still losing.

Ok let’s get the equalizer.

Game over. Pogba with a great strike on a rebound. 3-1 France.

[NewMarketSean]

That’ll do it.

Game over. Pogba with a great strike on a rebound. 3-1 France.

It seemed odd to me that the goalie shifted to his left just before the shot. It didn't seem like a shot to his left was all that plausible based on all the bodies in the way. So from my amateur view, that probably should have been saved.

4-1.
