For French fans watching the final back home, it was a tense two and a half hours that ended in heartbreak.
After the game that went to extra time and a penalty shootout, they were left crushed as they absorbed the weight of the moment and what could have been.

France played well and tied it up before the penalty shootouts. Mbappe is definitely the star of this world cup even if France lost in the end.
@Harixav Well those africans consider themselves french now.
@Harixav you mean all Argentineans are Spanish and Italian heritage anyway. What’s your point???
He stood out but I don’t think he was the star
@Mazda Miata King 👑 Messi & Di Maria❤️ we love you ⭐⭐⭐ 🇦🇷. You have ripped off african French team & Macron🤡 apart 👊👊👊 & Ronaldo 🤡 is now Clubless🤦♂️
These are self consoling mindsets, there is no 2nd best, by the way who the**** is Mbappe ?
Prince MBS should reward the Saudi team for beating beating world champions now
😂😂😂😂 loosers you cant even qualify
I heard he’s giving each players rolls royce.
MBS = The Living Devil
Better luck next time Africa. At least you won the previous one.
Le epic troll has logged on XD
@Frank I don’t think it’s a troll but the “aljazeera” account is most likely a Nigerian scammer.

France coach is so communal..I am supporting France for Benzema
Fantastic Match…. Congratulations Argentina…. Well Played France….
Thanks for the great show
Is it really French football team? Cuz I see mostly Africans. Those African players have been phenomenal regardless.
Ffs lets DNA test the players. Lighter skinned African amercian players have percentile of European. Just so everyone understands that. Jon Jones the mma fighter is 5% Scottish. And he looks black so….
Hmm france lose so they gonna get called immigrants but if win,they are france…
@AMKN Win or lose won’t change their ethnicity. No African,Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc team has players of a foreign ethnicity.
And that’s beautiful because they are proud of their ethnicity.
I don’t get it what’s wrong with Europeans when they play internationally it’s as if they are representing Africans instead of Europeans. And when they win, these Europeans celebrate as if it’s the Europeans who played so well. Comon your own kind didn’t do shi-ttt. It’s the mercenaries you hired that did the job.
faxxx
more like a generation or two… French History isn’t your strong point no ?… they are fully French… exactly like black Americans are Americans (and 4/5 players are even from the West Indies)
Africa United we will always be your supporters and congratulations for job well done
The african team which play for france, this is the power of football n this is just beauty
Allez Les Bleus. 🇫🇷
Played like the true Defending champions.
Greatest night in the history of Sports.
Thank you both teams… Love live football 😊
As soon as the game hit penalties I knew it was over for France… absolutely no way lloris could have saved them
Finally dicaprio win osc- i i mean finally messi win world cup!!
Glad the racist French lost
Why are they racist ?
More than half their team are Africans
@Lord Tywin of House Lannister exactly and are still racist
At least France is the first African team to reach the world Cup finals
🤣🤣🤣
THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME WELL DONE MAGIC 🇦🇷
New world champion is Saudi Arabia if you know what I mean
France is the champion too.
The best world cup final I have ever seen.
*Lionel Messi’s last Redemption after the 2018 world cup Round of 16 Exit against France and 2014 World Cup Final Lose against Germany* …
*LEGEND SAYS:~ INDIANS ARE STILL BOYCOTTING QATAR WORLDCUP*
Lol.
Even the funs both sides went home happy.
Very true, am happy for France, am happy for Argentina

We live in a world where 2nd place folks cannot party. Missed opportunity to celebrate.
I celebrate everything, even coming last.
We did celebrated in France 🙂 We were happy and proud! it’s something to be 2nd I think too. Congrats Argentina but yay for us tooo ! 🙂
The French played very well but Argentina played better.
L équipe de France africaine
Afro french a greater help for whitey french indeed✨
Mbappe was the best ,man he was the game
Mbappe was definitely one of the world cup stars. France played very well. It was an epic ending. Congrats to Argentina.
When you hate hijab then you shouldn’t won it in Qatar.
Mrs Sophia is legit and her method works like magic I keep on earning every single week with her new strategy
Mrs Sophia has changed my financial status for the best all thanks to my uncle who introduced her to me
Yes I’m also a living testimony of expert Mrs Sophia
I think I’m interested how can I get in touch with Mrs Sophia
Who’s this professional everyone is talking about I always see her post on top comment on every YouTube video I watched
Please guys is there any way I can reach Mrs Sophia this sounds so helpful and i would love to win also 🙏🏻
This is the best World Cup ever, and the best final ever. The two best teams in the roster. Penalties can go either way. But 6 goals in normal time? This is the greatest World Cup Final of all time. Both Argentina and France were evenly matched.
France played very well. They fought till the last moment. But The Greatest of All Times deserves this trophy.
Could’ve gone either way during match play
LOL LOSERS HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
There is no party at all for the French 😂😂😂😂
Only a Messi party 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
peccato tifavo x l’africa
King 👑 Messi & Di Maria❤️ we love you ⭐⭐⭐ 🇦🇷. You have ripped off african French team & Macron🤡 apart 👊👊👊 & Ronaldo 🤡 is now Clubless🤦♂️
