Another French World Cup triumph, exactly 20 years after the last.

Football fans saw the last of the 2018 World Cup as France beat Croatia 4-2 to win the Russian edition on Sunday evening. The match itself may have fallen short of the spark expected of it considering the electrifying semi final games but every second of the festival was worth it.

Messi and Cristiano who?

If Argentina, for logistic reasons had to extend their return flight to Beunos Aires and Portugal decides to leave Russia immediately, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo may have had goodbye shakes at the airport. The significance of Portugals' and Argentina's exit is the uneventful sending home of Leo and CR7.
