    As someone who does't follow football, I enjoyed the game...
    Lots of scoring and lots of opportunities.

    This was World Cup gold.
    It was really enjoyable.  I only ever watch the semi-finals and final.  But I might start watching more football.

    I was hoping Croatia for them to win.  But France scoring 4 goals was impressive.  Congrats France.

    Crazy night here millions people in the street all over the country, over 1 million at the Champs-Elysees. Loved watching celebrations during this World Cup, always had a special thought for Belgium and England considering what we’ve been through lately. This is just fucking amazing!

    I just watched the Croatian news and the scenes in Zagreb are insane.
    It's like we won.

    Countries are never their leader.
    The Serbian president said on Serbian news that he supported Russia when they played Croatia yet on social media many Serbs left comments of support for Croatia.

    Heard that there were parties in Croatia and thought it was just great. Glad to see these pics, it’s still crazy here and in the end what I like the most about this is that I get to see happy people, a lot of happy people.

    Especially when there is little to be happy about in Croatia.

    @Tristelune Croats are totally into sport in general and there is always a welcome home party when a team or an individual comes back with a medal. But this is especially true with football. This is the craziest welcome party so far. I'm happy the World Cup is over because I need proper sleep now.

    Next World Cup to conclude Dec 18th 2022

    should be interesting , or a total disaster. All the venues are within 50 miles of each other. Hotel rooms could be big issue

    I can't believe that they are still letting this World Cup take place in Qatar.  The bribes and payoffs with their world cup bid were crazy.  And the fact that they have to play it during Nov-Dec in the middle of club season is ridiculous.....it's why it shouldn't have been given to a country where the average high temp in the summer is 110 in the first place!  And all the migrant workers being used that are living and working in horrific conditions to build these stadiums.  Oh yeah, and homosexuality is illegal in Qatar.  What a mess.   

    There are several countries (US, England, Germany, France) with the existing infrastructure and stadiums to host in 2022.  If FIFA had any balls, they would have taken this away from Qatar as soon as Blatter and the rest of the corrupt assholes were thrown out.

    Agreed.  But why would fifa say anything when their own pockets were probably lined?  Is there an increase in teams for the 2022 world cup?
