I have not watched any World Cup games this time. Even though I played on my junior high school team, I was terrible, and I have been a lukewarm fan ever since. In addition, the fact that the World Cup is held in Qatar and with FIFA being super corrupt, it just makes the entire spectacle less interesting. I actually thought the tournament was over, but it appears the final game is tomorrow between Argentina and France.
Out of all the teams that qualified this year, I was kind of following five of them: USA, Canada, South Korea, Japan, and Tunisia. USA is pretty obvious since I live here. I also lived in Canada, and though they would do well since they won the qualifying tournament. Instead, Canada got smoked 0-3 in the first round. Embarrassing. At least the USA team made it to the second round, barely. Japan and South Korea also make it to the next round but lost; got to support the Asian teams since there are so few. Finally, Tunisia because I visited there before. It is not a common tourist destination, so I always hope they win some World Cup games.
The final game is at 7:00 am local time tomorrow morning. I probably will not watch unless I am already up. I am not even sure I can receive the game since I do not have cable. If I had to choose sides, I would probably go with Argentina since this appears to be Lionel Messi’s last game before retirement. It feels like a lot of people are cheering for Argentina because of Messi.

I was up early this morning but forgot about the World Cup finals game. I just saw the news that Argentina beat France on penalty kicks. The final score was 3-3 (4-2).
