Well, this is it, the game the whole tournament has been building up to. The World Cup final. Sadly there will be no participation from Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions, but this still has the makings of a good game.
France have performed slowly but ably throughout the tournament, getting the job done without - with the exception of a 4-3 win over Argentina - any real fireworks. Les Bleus will be the firm favourites for this game too, as Croatia arguably represent the weakest of the four sides they’ve had to face in the knockout rounds.
Croatia, meanwhile, saved the best until last, they found an extra gear against England and were deserving winners in the end.
