***Official 2018 FIFA World Cup thread***

Here is a great question for the final:
what was the first World Cup you remember and/or watched? Where were you?

This was my introduction to soccer.
 
It must be said . . . .the Croatian keeper has been dreadful.

He has guessed wrong, he has been slow, he has been on the wrong foot every single goal. Not saying these are easy shots to save but he has not been close.
 
Young player of the tournament: Mbappe. With A World Cup in his pocket already he has a monkey off his back that Messi/Ronaldo will likely never get off. He has an epic chance to challenge their legacy.

Goalkeeper of the tournament: Courtois. I don’t like the guy much, but his performance vs. Brazil was pure quality.

Player of the tournament: Eden Hazard for me. My guess is they give it to Pogba or Modric.
 
Most goals scored at the World Cup per club’s players:

Spurs: 12
PSG: 12
Barcelona: 9
Manchester United: 9
Juventus: 8
Atlético Madrid: 8
Real Madrid: 6
Liverpool: 6
Chelsea: 5
Manchester City: 5
Villarreal: 4
Zenit: 3
Besiktas: 3
Sunderland: 2
Bayern Munich: 0

Bayern is going through the biggest hangover in club soccer I have seen in a long time. Since the heartbreaking loss to Real in the Champions league semi . . . .they all have fell apart. That loss, losing to Frankfurt in the German Cup, poor performances in the pre Cup friendlies and then the disaster World Cup itself.

Possibly fatigue but they better get their **** together.
