I will happily put aside any Argentina rivalry for the sake of seeing one of the biggest moments in football history and Messi finally getting the big one at 35.
Absolutely hoping Messi's Argentina win. Could not stand the 'disinterested' French winning. Should be a cracking game.
Same for me, i don't care much at all for Argentina, i just think Messi deserves it to crown his career after bringing them this far. Plus the majority of these French players have already won a world cup.
Definitely Argentina for me - their fans have been so passionate and it would make for a more memorable tournament for Messi to finish by lifting the trophy. Shame so many people can't put aside historical grievances and just enjoy the football.
We all dislike Argentina for what occurred in the 90s and the fact that they are usually the opposite to Brazil. Dark arts as opposed to the beautiful game. However as a player I detested the arrogant midget Deschamps, this dislike still lingers long into management.and I hate seeing his smug face smile.
Want to see Messi win it, want to see Argentina | France lose - Hopefully a giant Seagull will swoop in just as they're about the KO, pinch the only ball in the country (Qatar have ran out of money) and fly off, shitting on Infantino's head

I had two bets left, one on Argentina to win, the other on France to win. I've cashed out Argentina and am sticking with France. If I've got that wrong I will feel like a bit of a plank.
It's like s Millwall v Palace FA Cup final. You want both teams to lose. As you can't have a favourite you can just watch the game as s complete neutral. I'd love to see penalties and some of the worst culprits break and miss under pressure.

both countries tend to 'export' most of their top talents and I wonder if this makes for a stronger bond amongst their players, absence makes the heart grow fonder, boys reunion, diaspora nationalism and all that stuff like most here I don't care for either country, though the French are the less obnoxious of the two .. some great players on show, potentially a super game though given the prize it'll be cagey at least until one team scores .. France after extra time

Disappointed watching Mbappe throw himself to the ground several times in the semi conning the ref so hope he cuts that out.
Plus he isn't French!
Detest them both in equal measure.
And being a Charlton fan and saying the word joy in the same sentence is few and far between.
