Paredes has previous for such antics. Have a look for PSG vs Marseille a few years back when he was one of five red-carded in one incident.

Comprehensively outplayed and Messi went missing.
Messi was in jail the whole game. Argentina were a disgrace to be honest. Apart from the conduct, their performance was dreadful, and they played for 0-0.

This just in: Trump has found his Sharpie, and corrected the result to Spain 1-2 Argentina.

Wish they'd get a move on with the trophy presentation. Drumpf must be having his nappy changed just in case

That enormous World Cup is going to be in the White House garden tomorrow

Top marks to the pranksters who stole Infantino's shoes moments before he was due to step onto the pitch!

Infantino looks an amazing fashion guru with the dark suit & Primani white trainers 
Neither could YamalMessi couldn't get away from Trump fast enough!

Trump trying to linger and make sure he was in all the trophy lifting photos. Even Infantino didn’t have the nerve to try it

I wonder how far Argentina would have progressed in the competition had referees dealt properly with their foul play in earlier matches

Hats off to Spain. Bloody well played even if VARgentina was more interested in playing MMA than they were football. 20 shots with 12 on target vs 3 shots with 0 on target is nothing short of a comprehensive demolition job.
Fun factoid, beyond the few days after the release of that mobile Pokémon game, I haven't seen the general mood of the internet so united for once; in this case, united in its collective hatred of Argentina. The amount of actually funny AI slop of Infantino and Messi represented in either a princess costume or a baby bib is surprising.

Nowhere near as far. I think either Cabo Verde or Egypt would have actually knocked them out.

The best team won. We had an extremely entertaining bronze match with "les Bleus " though!
It looked ridiculous that thing

It’s a non-sport day!
In the last week we’ve had the football, England cricket, diamond league athletics, the Grand Prix, a day of rugby on Saturday…..probably other stuff I’ve forgotten…..
….and today’s even a rest day in the Tour de France
Well done to Spain for winning the World Cup, deservedly against Argentina’s negative & rather dirty tactics. A fully deserved sending off for Enzo Fernandez, not sure what he was complaining about, it could have even been a straight red
The behaviour of Paredes & Molina after the final whistle was shocking in hitting the opposition players. The only one who stayed out of this part was Messi who sat on the turf.
Wayne Rooney correctly summed up the half time entertainment, it was crap. The pre show was poor as well & trying to get Donald Trump involved in the trophy celebrations was embarrassing.
Overall I didn’t think it was a great stadium for the final, either the stadiums at Atlanta, Dallas or the Azteca in Mexico City would have been better

The stadium in New Jersey chosen as it had the largest capacity?
The darts is on!
I reckon it would have been more work to prevent his involvement. It looked hard enough to get him to leave the podium for the photos, I'm surprised Infantino hasn't been deported yet for that.
Catch up on the Rugby, T20 final, ODI, Athletics, Belgian GP and The Open.

Don’t forget the Major League Cricket final in San Francisco. Los Angeles beating Washington by 1 run to win the championship!
(Yes America have cricket)

Don’t let Messi off the hook. His attempt to get Cucurella red carded in the wake of Fernandez’ red was pathetic beyond belief. If that had been Cristiano Ronaldo he’d be crucified afterwards - why is Messi different? He’s meant to be the leader.

Does it have a half time show?
