Wish I watched the Germany Italy 3-3 draw. That sounded like fun.
FRA-CRO was utter domination by France. They reminded me of when Germany cruised through WC 2014 culminating in the destruction of Brazil. Olise, Dembele, Mbappe absolutely incredible all night. France dictated the play on and off the ball.
I can't believe Croatia got it to penalties (and almost won), but France definitely rightful winners. Mike Maignan is a terrific keeper.
When you watch how the players play and the fan enthusiasm, it's clear that Nations League is a success even among the European snobs. Hell, Nations league (IMO) has officially passed the Gold Cup as this continent's regional championship.
