France really trying to ride this out is a pretty bold strategy.

I am neutral on this game but there is no way I want to be subjected to another game of this stupid whistling. Go France!

Reffing has been pretty lenient when it comes to cards, some brutal tackles in 2nd half. Surprised hasn't been a bit more wide open based on the scoreline

Mbappe gets the headlines, but if France win the whole thing it should be Griezmann getting the Golden Ball. Having a hell of a tournament.

Well kinda the same as the England match, not all that great from France, but a win is a win.

Canada should have beat Morocco and tie Croatia. Which means Canada should have won 3rd AND 4th place!! 
Such BS the "knowledgeable" Canadian media made up...

Hopefully the Moroccan fans can keep the whistling to a minimum in the third place match.

Crazy that there has only been 8 world cup winners, and that list is not going to grow.

Only 13 nations have ever competed for the World Cup. The 8 winners plus Netherlands (2010), Sweden (1958), Czechoslovakia (1962), Hungary (1954) & Croatia (2018).
*year of most recent appearance.

There's an ongoing debate about who the first non-European or non-South America team to win a World Cup. Some say the US, Japan, Nigeria etc...
The answer might be never, or not in our lifetime. Maybe one can get to the final but then lose it.
The path is just too difficult. If Morocco had won this World Cup, they would have had to beat Belgium, Spain, Portugal, France and Argentina.
The other semifinalist was Korea. They would have had to beat Portugal, Italy, Spain, Germany, Brazil.
Ghana may have had the easiest path in 2010 but were thwarted by the Hand of Suarez. It would have been Serbia, USA, Uruguay, Netherlands, Spain.
