So happy that Spain won. Both of their goals were brilliant. France on the other hand, a simple header. Their only real goal of the tournament. lol.
Btw, it’s criminal that they don’t even start Griezmann. He’s been their best player for the past decade. Guess some upsider was better, but maybe not as they couldn’t score to save their life.
Nah. Pedro is White.
Navas is White as well. Not European as he is Gitani but, he is White. Similar to Turkish soccer players..

France’s team is remarkably African. I don’t believe most of their African players have French given names even.
My great grandfather was in the French foreign legion. I imagine him spinning in his grave.
Hard to imagine how much that country has changed just in the last 30 years.
Regarding the game today vs. Spain and Franfica, it was obvious how much better Spain was in the game. The media will blame the manager, and he deserves criticism for his player selection and tactics but, once again Black athletes have been overated.
The best player on the pitch was Dani Olmo and he is rated below his contemporary French African players purely due to race. Much like the NFL, black soccer players get overvalued due to upside..
Also, it will be interesting how this failure will be received back in France in light of the current political climate..

Virtually all White Argentina is easily beating North American France. Amazing that the other big (partially) French country is just as racially cucked as their fatherland. Canada fielding a team of blacks too (70-80% maybe).
Messi scored the second goal and is still a legend even at his advanced age.

Spain-England final would look the best.
Expecting England to have 5white players tonight and a guy that will look white to casual viewer.
Palmer, Gallagher should be in team and Shaw probably would be but not fit.
Holland maximum 3. An absolute embarrassment on a French scale.

I think I know most of the names. It’s 7 out of 10 White athletes, correct?
I dont fancy pace in soccer as many do but, two of the fastest players of the last 30 years were two White players who rarely get mentioned.
"Dennis Rommedahl wore UGG boots on the bench for Charlton, was one of the quickest players in Premier League history and was World Cup star for Denmark. Rommedahl is widely quoted as having a time of 10.2sec for the 100 metres."
"Claudio Caniggia certainly wasn’t the biggest name in the formidable Argentina side of the 1990 and 1994 World Cup. However, he was one of the most exciting. Caniggia was revered for his searing pace and could reputedly run the 100m in just 10.5 seconds. He was so fast that in the 90 World Cup, the Cameroonian squad had to resort to fouling him."
