Agreed despite thinking he did deserve to win it. Hopefully he can turn in some performances for national team now. Been abysmal for the national team. People tend to forget its just a bunch of journalist voting. The whole thing has been a joke for years.

I love Rodri, but if you aren’t winning PL player of the year, nor CL, how are you winning Ballon d’Or. Bit ridiculous.

Ok.

Never change

Barely touched him. If thats a red than Diaz should be off as well.

It’s all facts though

What I meant is that its under international tournaments that they and their fans have had issues in the past and neither CONMEBOL or FIFA have done anything about it.

Racism is extremely widespread in Argentina. It’s normal to have monkey chants without punishment. Their football fans are allowed to be as racist as they like week in week out in international football without any consequences. Nothing is going to be different this time around, especially when its the players involved.

Agreed. This side might have limited talent compared to that generation, but they absolutely deserved it and played by far the best football this tournament. Ridiculous to suggest anything else, dominant from the first game. Beating Croatia, Italy, France, Germany and England says it all. Extremely well coached side that were willing to attack, something that is basically frowned upon in international football nowadays. For me its the best winning side since France 2018 (which played horrendous football). Better than the Portugal side that won or even the last Italian side. Don’t share the sentiment that they were there for the taking at all. Truly well deserved.

I mean, they do probably have the best set of players in international football as well. But anyone denying that luck has played a huge factor is kidding themselves. There’s a vast difference between how both sides have gotten to the final. One has beaten all their opponents deservedly including Itsly, Croatia, Germany ( in et) and France. The other has basically drawn their way to the final against the likes of Denmark, Slovenia, and Slovakia. That being said, Portugal did the same in 2016 and were crowned champions, so why not England this time? Anything can happen in a final.

Real Madrid has been quite successful past few years with luck. Who says it cant be you this time?

Hope he doesnt. Anti-football. Fuck that. Only played poor sides this tournament and yet had to scrape their way to the final. Lucky man. Too many good players to almost lose to Slovakia, Switzerland and this poor dutch side that almost went out to Turkey.

Will hopefully be a good final, reckon Spain are favourites, but England keep stumbling their way to wins.

Are the dutch playing without midfielders? Fucks going on?

Wow. Ridiculous decisionz
