[Alice @AliceTalksFooty]

So the Argentina players run up and celebrate in England players faces but when Spain celebrate together for winning the World Cup they get annoyed and throw punches at them.

Biggest bunch of babies in football. They’re lucky FIFA protects them.

The way they behaved in 2022 after beating the Netherlands and throughout this tournament has been disgusting.

[Fondre @UTDFondree]

Paredes and Romero did the same thing to Bellingham. They’re sore losers who can dish it out but can’t take it.

They celebrated in Bellingham’s face as if they’d won it all, yet couldn’t handle Rodri celebrating in front of them.💀😭

Difference between Ronaldo and Messi. 🫢

[Anonymous @YourAnonCentral]

Spain’s players refused to celebrate with Trump after the U.S. president attempted to insert himself into the middle of their victory photo. He was politely pushed aside.

Trump just refusing to leave when they’re lifting the trophy.

Infantino desperately trying to get him to move.

Circus.

[Football Away Days @FBAwayDays]

They’ll be facing some serious sanctions here, surely!! 😲

[Tom @tpacker]

Argentina have repeatedly shown us everything football shouldn’t be.

Today France and England showed us what it should be.

No hate between players, no filthy fouls and trying to actually harm each other, no political statements, no favouritism, no disgusting behaviour from fans just the beautiful game.

[Statman Dave @StatmanDave]

That’s not going to do anything to quieten the “it’s rigged for Argentina” crowd… 👀👀👀

[Rasmus S @Rallesch]

Spain robbed! Clear goal. Messi stepped more on Spence foot in the semis without anything. Absolutely ridiculous call from the Argentina ref #worldcup #wc2026

[WolfRMFC @WolfRMFC]

Daylight final, boring game, Argentina’s corruption and then this halftime show nonsense. This is the WORST world cup final ever.

[Adam @AdamJoseph]

Wayne Rooney on the half-time show. “I like a lot of them artists, but I thought it was crap.”

Best commentator on the BBC broadcast & has been the breakout pundit of the tournament. Authentically speaks his mind & knows the modern game. He's a treasure.

🗣️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Wayne Rooney: "My favourite bit of the half-time show? When it finished.

Honestly, it was CRAP. I like those artists but it's rubbish. They were all FLAT." 👏👏👏👏

[Adam Crafton @AdamCrafton_]

FIFA miss their internal target of 20 minutes for half-time during the World Cup final by more than seven minutes.

Whistle to whistle: 27 minutes and 23 seconds.

Wayne Rooney speaks for the world: "I like a lot of them artists but I thought it was crap”

[The Athletic | Football @TheAthleticFC]

“Nicolas Tagliafico could have received a yellow card for persistent infringement for a single foul when he brought down Spain's Lamine Yamal.

“It was an untidy and clumsy challenge to say the least, and was undeniably deliberate.”

Graham Scott, @refsplaining, former Premier League referee, believes Nicolas Tagliafico should have been cautioned for his challenge on Lamine Yamal...

[Finch / Sports Journalist @FinchyRiley]

The threshold for a yellow card this WC 🌍

🇪🇸 Spain, 2 per 55 fouls.
🇦🇷Argentina, 3 per 59 fouls.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿England, 7 per 52…
🇫🇷 France, 4 per 47…

Both sides in the final can commit around 4 times the fouls than the 3rd and 4th placed teams without a yellow.

[The Athletic | Football @TheAthleticFC]

Graham Scott (@refsplaining), former Premier League referee, gives his view on Alexis Mac Allister’s challenge on Dani Olmo:

“It’s a clear yellow card for reckless play.

“He went in too fast, then caught his opponent with his front foot and second leg.

“I’m surprised because the fourth official has the perfect view so should have been able to advise accordingly.”

If England thought Argentina got away with a lot in the semi-final... well, we're moving into new territory here.

World Cup in a Louis Vuitton case, Tom Cruise obnoxious speech, US national anthem in a game not involving the US…

[Adam Smithy @AdamJSmithy]

Argentina 🇦🇷 this World Cup:

➡️ ONLY team not to have a single VAR intervention against them
➡️ Most - fouls of ANY team
➡️ 0 Red Cards
➡️ Most - Pens awarded
➡️ Most - opponents goals disallowed
➡️ Most - opponents yellow cards
➡️ Least - travel distance

VIVA ESPANA 🇪🇸

[Adam @AdamJoseph]

I never thought I'd so heavily barrack against a nation until Argentina at the 2026 World Cup. They just get treated to a whole set of rules entirely by referees.
