Football. A beautiful game. That sport is where players drop to the floor and wiggle around at the merest touch from one of the opposing teams. Whatever you want to call it, it can’t be denied that it was played at a truly breathtaking level yesterday at the World Cup final.
While the tournament at Qatar was dampened by controversy long before it even started, almost unanimously agree that the France vs. Argentina match is one that will go down in history. It doesn’t take a soccer expert to see that a guy scoring a hat trick and still losing makes for compelling watching, as does one of the greatest players ultimately winning the most famous prize in the sport.
From Mbappé to Messi, to every other player involved, there were a bunch of chances for some humorous memes and commentary on what ended up being a seismic win for Argentina.
