    Mbappe v Messi
    PSG v PSG
    Qatar v Qatar
    What are the chances of that happening?
    How very convenient.

    Yeah all those sides like us and Morocco all in on the bribe being paid off to purposely lose and officials being bribed to get France all the way like the one who gave us two pens against them.

    Bribe? What bribe? All I said was it's a convenient final for Qatar.

    Just a coincidence. Argentina & in particular France were always favourites to get this far. You could say the same if it were Brazil v France with Neymar in place of Messi

    What are the chances? Quite high I'd say. It's hardly a shock that teams ranked 3rd and 4th in the world have got to the final or that the reigning champs have got to the final or a recent finalist has.

    Nor is it really a surprise that two teams in the final both have psg players. Psg have recently been buying anyone they can with money no object. It would have been psg v psg regardless of who won today. In fact it would be psg v psg if Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Argentina, Brazil, Morocco or even Costa Rica made the final.

    Blimey, 2 of the 3 bookies favourites reach the final, who would’ve thought it
