Putin hogging the only umbrella was pretty funny. Macron and the Croatian President are totally going to bang. This whole presentation is weird.

âA side that represents the France that Macron waves to create tooâ
Yes, good work Manu âAfricans have too many babiesâ Macron

A nice touch would be to drop the Star Wars theme as played when Deschamps lifted it iirc

Golden Ball was Luka/ Hazard / Griezmann in the end.
― Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Sunday, 15 July 2018 17:35 (five years ago) link
Griezmann pick is generous. He also won MOTM

Luka award was generous imo

Even his political decisions are right.

The trophy presentation has been a shambolic melee for some time now. Infantino letting the various Presidents kiss it before walking over to the where the squad were and having to pass it Lloris from behind them just seemed really badly though it. Having it all take place inside a snowglobe would've at least kept the rain off.

I.e. go the blue ones, aka the French team.

That song was similar but not quite it. Maybe it was "allez suppo" something.

Talking of French songs - I had this one in my head all yesterday. Its catchy!

I'm in Paris. I am pretty hungry. I see there were riots. I only saw one fist fight while getting thai food. We moved the cutlery away from the window.

Overall, last night was remarkably well-behaved in the 18Ăšme. Lovely atmosphere, genuinely multicultural.

I'm in the 18Úme too, cars honking etc until the morning but that's great. Not gonna go to the défilé today.

the only thing that's still in my head from yesterday is the bbc commentator saying rly unctuously 'we won't give these idiots the oxygen of publicity' but it was pussy riot
― imago, Monday, 16 July 2018 10:19 (five years ago) link
yeah that whole thing was pretty fucking disgusting/depressing tbh
― Jules Rimet still leaving (Noodle Vague), Monday, 16 July 2018 10:38 (five years ago) link
I just assumed they thought it was a standard dumb pitch invasion but who knows.

p obv that the commentator doesnt know in advance lads

as an unreformed hispanophile i want to point out that in their allegedly terrible display against russia spain managed more shots (overall and on target) than france did in any game this wc
this is not to say france didn't deserve to win - their defence was consistently excellent, they had some lethal counters - but rather just to point out that ppl find unproductive play more acceptable if you don't have the ball
it's also hard to square this wc with the idea that the manager's importance is overstated

it would be daft to expect a commentator to see a pitch invasion in Russia and think it might have any political protest attached, of course
not suggesting they turned a broadcast of the World Cup final into Any Questions, just saying maybe they cd've shut the fuck up altogether in the moment, then maybe not tried to pretend nothing happened after the game was finished.
― Jules Rimet still leaving (Noodle Vague), Monday, 16 July 2018 10:58 (five years ago) link
The press will give it more than enough coverage. I am not sure I want to hear Lee Dixonâs thoughts on the matter.
― Wag1 Shree Rajneesh (ShariVari), Monday, 16 July 2018 11:04 (five years ago) link
Lads, it's conpletely standard for the commentator to mildly tut at the pitch invader and for the camera to cut away

asking a lot for a commentator to see that in real time without benefit of VAR tbf

Also fine here imo.
The politics around Pussy Riot are so complex and divisive at this stage idk what proportion of Russian activists would necessarily be thrilled about them getting much more.
