In the final – France and Croatia. Champion – Russia – Sports Mail.Ru

It was a great championship. The clbadroom here was everything – the organization, the atmosphere, the plot. And the performance of the Russian team. In fact, everything will be cool around football, we did not doubt it. But in our team – yes. Therefore, even now we remember Russia – even on the field "Luzhniki" other teams will come out. And this is not just about patriotism. Okay – our team was worthy of the main match. Now, after the semifinals, we can talk about it

But until the decisive moment, others have – also worthy. And, probably, more deserved.

Especially this concerns Croatia – the team that has suffered this success. Tournament after the tournament after the bronze in 1998, the Croats were unlucky. The generations have changed, grown up, then the stars have aged, the leaders have changed. They were always among the favorites, but someone constantly interfered . And now, when the genius of Croatian football – Luka Modric – has pbaded the 33rd year, the efforts are rewarded. Croatia is one step away from the greatest success. For the first time since the 98th year, a new champion can appear in the world and, for the first time, a Slavic country is ready to become a triumphant.

Whatever the political circumstances, Croatian footballers are always close to us. Just listen to the language. Therefore, I am sure that Croatia will have support at the Luzhniki stadium. Probably, and those in the semi-finals hooted Vida – yes, not the most astute person, but an incredible defender.

He and the charmer Lovren, Modric guru and the humble Rakitic master, the piercing Mandzhukich and the infuriating Kramarich women – these guys mature for a big victory. We hope that after several years our team will reach the same level. Which, we are ready to repeat this forever, was the closest thing to knock out the Croatians of the tournament. Closer than England, and much closer to Argentina.

How would we play with a flawless France? The question is interesting because the French know how to dry this championship even more than Cherchesov in a match against Spain.

In this respect, it's a little scary for the finale – caution, discipline, calculation – all of this did not spoil the last impression of the championship. Because the semi-finals of France and Belgium were very controversial from the point of view of entertainment. Someone is, I do not exclude, like that. But the legends on the other matches.

The Croats, despite all their excitement, approach the game not as a favorite. What they do is not clear. Dalich, probably, will understand. But against such calculating and at the same time highly publicized teams, Croatia has not played. And if France scores first, then I sincerely sympathize with the Zlatko Dalich team. Before a wall develops, even the elbows of Lovren do not break.

Well – the devil with predictions. Those who made them, for this month already several times sitting in a puddle of water. The World Cup in Russia is a very unpredictable tournament. Do you remember how everything started? 5: 0 – who believed in it? It would be great if in the last match, as in the first match, something was also incredible . It does not matter who will eventually raise the cup. It is worthy of France and Croatia
