After watching Spain’s match against France, I realized Spain is a tier above France—and Argentina wouldn’t stand a chance against them either. France can dominate other teams, but Spain can dominate France—leaving France utterly powerless. That tells you just how strong Spain is.

The only teams that were first in the pre-match odds and won the championship are Spain this year and Spain in 2010.

No one is upset about Messi’s fans—your group is the most impressive; even when you’re unhappy, you can still shift the blame.

The tournament delivered a three-game sweep against France, leaving the French team utterly humiliated and completely unable to mount any resistance.

Possession-based play is not outdated—it simply demands high-quality personnel.

At last the FIFA assisted Argentine team went back home in tears. FIFA couldn't influence this final as the Argentines were completely overwhelmed. For 90mins, no shot at goal from the Argentines. The very first time in football history. Not even a shot from King Messi. He couldn't give us his magical moments. There was wild celebrations all over Africa most especially in Cairo Egypt contrary to when they were robbed in their game against Argentina. FiFA achieved their goal anyway by keeping Messi in the tournament till the last day. What a match!
