The FIFA World Cup is over and what a tournament it has been but was it the best?
Well let me give out my thoughts on this years World Cup.
The Shocking KnockoutsThe group stages got interesting but not as interesting as the knockouts as we saw both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo get knocked out the cup run early on and the shocks did not stop there.
The VAR SystemThis years World Cup introduced the VAR system where the most important decisions were to be reviewed by the referees behind the tv screens giving any help to the referee on the touchline and on the pitch, we thought we had the last drama decision before the final but it returned again and got France the penalty. In my opinion I thank VAR is the future for Football because it adds to the drama.
A Huligan Free CupThis is huge heading into the cup in Russia because of what happened in the Euros but throughout the cup we had nothing in terms of violence on or off the pitch with footballers and fans, I think I saw a headline that 2 fans were killed after the France game so sad to see and read because we had such a great World Cup.
England Got FarEngland grabbed the nation all over the UK and of course not everyone will be a fan of England but they had a great run which ultimately ended because the team got tired also faded in performance on the pitch, so a great future for England but as a Welshman watch out for Wales.
