no. The Tournament is every 4 years so assuming you start watching world cups at around 10 years old depending on your age currently. that's 5 tournaments.

It's not a big leap of the imagination mate even if we counted the ones when we were in our mother's wombs or in nappies.
98 was a good final between 2 attacking teams but I'm guessing they learned from Portugal defeat

Croatia have been great today but not in chasing this game. It’s like the don’t realise they need to score.

France are the deserving winner. It's all about what you do with the ball, not how much you have possession of it.

Pogba has been immense, but the talent round him boggles the mind. Mbpappe, Griezmann, Kante, Varate...wow.

France weren't an attacking team 98 but it was a great final from France.

Chances dont mean anything without converting. And the freekick and penalty werent gifts, one was a defo foul, the penalty debatable but easily given. France deserved winners.
Defo foul? He blatantly dived with no contact:lol:

Good on you France! Deserved and expected, would be a shame for talents like Mbappe and Pogba not to win it.

Easy money made on France too. ;)
