To me the conclusion is:

Argentina and France both deserve their places in the Final as they were the only ones in this years good enough to do it. And they are the top 2 national teams in 2022. Whether they end up losing big or small.

None of the other 30 nations weren't good enough to do it.

That's fair I suppose.

If France does win by a large margin though, Kane, Southgate & he who shall not be named will have eyes staring at them over the mistakes made during that match that potentially cost England the World Cup.

Yeah, Clad has a good point. You've got France, the holders, no team has ever made back to back finals (i think), and they've had plenty of injuries. Talk about having depth in numbers. Then Argentina, you have to give them all the credit in the world really. They suffered the biggest (arguably) shock defeat in world cup history losing to SA in their first game, bouncing back from that shows immense character. And in the 1/4's, 2 up against the Netherlands with 10 mins left, concede and equaliser in the 100th min, still go on to win.

A script has been written for both sides. I really don't mind who wins. Both teams deserve to be in the final for sure.

Regarding France they seem to be recovering from the Camel virus outbreak in their team.

Apparently Giroud could be out though. (Knee injury)

Well done to Argentina so far.

Kinda ironic that France conceded yet another penalty.

Their defending has been very questionable the last few games.

Their luck might've finally run out here.

In the Pub. Great first half. We're all about 50/50 here. Don't mind who wins. Hope France can make it a game in the 2ND half though.
