The Quatar World Cup 2022

Well, that was breathtaking.

never seen France coming back, 2-0 down, well off the pace then the game burst into life.

Two world class players, Messi & Mbappe, show their class when it matters.

Mbappe up first, the Brazilians should have taken note. 

1-0 France. 

[faraway saint]

And Messi up next..........................

 

WHAT an outrageous penalty by the wee man.

The Argentinian goalie is a nutter.

Argentina win, fantastic match!

[faraway saint]

ARGENTINA, World Cup winners, led by the footballing genius Lionel Messi. 

Superb final, superb world cup, just football at it's best.

What an absolutely stupendous match.

Best final ever in my football watching lifetime which goes back to the 74 World Cup.

Despite a few games that never lived up to expectation this world cup was excellent overall.

If it's only goals that determine how decent a world cup was this surpassed EVERY previous world cup.

Averaging 2.68 goals EVERY game, giving a total of 172 goals, not bad.

Of course, it's not all about the goals, some excellent play all round, a few cracking blunders by goalkeepers and, surprisingly, astounding crowds at most games.

Roll on 2026, I'll be retired by then and, if I choose, able to watch every game, although Mrs Faraway might have other ideas.
