Jimbo, Tim Spiers, Adrian Clarke and Daniel Storey react to an amazing day for football, as the game’s best player stars in the game’s best ever match to win the game’s biggest prize.

Argentina dethrone France as world champions via penalty shoot-out after an enthralling 3-3 draw, as Lionel Messi cements his legacy on the grandest stage.

With added reaction from Julien Laurens and Martin Mazur, we try and get to the bottom of what the hell happened in Doha. The Dir Maria selection, the Deschamps substitutions, the Mbappe hat-trick, the Martinez shenanigans and all the non-stop drama.

Plus a word for Sinisa Mihajlovic, Croatia and Morocco, and we montage our way out of Qatar 2022.
