I missed this afters post match

Just got back home. What an amazing match. I am pleasantly stunned. Atmosphere was incredible. Though my seats were high up, it was an amazing view in the shade with a gentle breeze.

As an American, I am also happy. We love seeing French people sad and upset. :).

I took a ton of mental notes during this tournament as I will be doing many games next summer including the final. I dont care about the cost. Ive been to 5 super bowls, world series, etc. Its just money. FIFA's security is insane. They actually looked inside my wallet. Who does that?! I have been to that stadium many times for NFL games and they getting off the train and in the stadium is so easy. But for this tournament it was way more difficult as so many areas were gated off.

I took tomorrow off work to celebrate!

Is that for the Budweiser and BBQ in the car park?

3 hours before.. madness. At home games back in the day we used to be in a pub until 30 minutes before kick off

It was probably overkill. I got there about 2 hours before kickoff. By the time i did the festivities outside of the stadium and got to my seat it was an hour before kickoff. Time sort of flies with all the pregame stuff.

I didnt care about the halftime except for Coldplay. I didnt know who anyone else was. I dont listen to todays music. Its all trash. I love my classic rock, 70s, 80s, and 90s. Real music. Love the Stones, Led Zep, The Who, Pink Floyd!

Superb! Was a great experience to attend games - with you on that one. I’ve watched world cups over the years and love the continuity fifa create with their events, albeit those country world cups. But they copied that formula to club and it worked, with plenty to learn from.

Don’t be surprised by FIFA looking inside a Chelsea fans wallet. Be grateful it wasn’t UEFA as they’d have just helped themselves to your cash!

For sure plenty to learn from for next year. Still waiting on tickets to be released for the world cup. Dont know what that is going to look like. I did some things right in terms of pregaming right. I left home at the perfect time. I ate/drank just enough to last me through the day and not too much where I didnt have to use the restroom at all for 8 hours! I have a fear of public toilets. I have been to a million sporting events, so I have it down to an exact science.

I got the presale for this tournament back in Jan, which was really dumb on my part as ticket prices plummeted! Even for the final. I def overpaid in retrospect. Oh well.

Now I am going to 2nd guess next years world cup. Should I not jump on it early and grab tickets? Or just wait for prices to plummet like they did for this?

Best thing about winning the CWC is we can declare ourselves "WORLD CHAMPIONS" for the next four years 😎

Dreadful behaviour ... what do you expect from the French?

Suspect PSG thought they were going to walk this one...

Aside from being a great player, Pedro obviously has the ability to get under the skin of the opposition 😁

Think he asked Colwill and Chalobah how to build a wall?

Another joke I saw online was that Trump had celebrated more international trophies than Arsenal 🤣

Okay, so I admit at half time I began to take this tournament seriously!😀😀😀

Well done Chelsea!😀

Champions of the World!😀

Not bad eh!!😀😀😀

Go on…😀

Ha! 😀Ha!😀

Carrier Pigeon has just arrived with these picture!😀

‘William The Conqueror, Napoleon Bonaparte, Charles De Gaulle, Michel Platini. Your boys took a helluva beating!’

To kind of paraphrase that famous Norwegian Commentator from autumn 1981.

Sorry, my coffee is strong this morning!😀

I always loved Ramires. Even if he had not scored that incredible goal versus Barca.

I think the WC will be different - but it all comes down to whether the US makes it past the group stage or not. If so, prices will skyrocket; if not, they will drop but not plummet.

My fav of those pics is the one where Enrique looks like he ate bad fish. Sore loser !

I had originally thought that Donnaruma was equally complicit in the fracas, but now I am not so sure. Was it just Enrique who was the turd/trouble-maker or did the big Italian keeper also help stir the pot there?

Me and my two mates started watching the game from behind the sofa metaphorically speaking. When it went to 3-0 we were running round the garden which believe me was no mean feat given our ages and the size of the garden 🤣

Btw, who had Chelsea 3-0 at the bookies….. nah me neither.

It honestly felt like a home game. Chelsea is Big in the 🇺🇸

It has always been that way, bigger than the ratmunchers and manure for sure. Citeh is starting to rival us in support here, however.
