BREAKING: Spain beat 'DIRTY' Argentinian team in World Cup Final | REACTION

As Bethany just mentioned, some breaking news for you. Spain have won the World Cup. They defeated Argentina 1-0 in New Jersey in what was, in my eyes, a relatively underwhelming final but they got the job done in extra time. Here's a look at the Spanish fans celebrating in Madrid and these are live pictures at the moment. How happy are they? Now look, I think England are incredibly disappointed that they couldn't be in this final but I think this was probably the second best result after the way the Argentinians carried on in the semi-finals. I don't think you'll find many unhappy English fans about this result. Quick thoughts from my panel. Paul, you're happy about this? I'm very happy with the result. It was a very dull final with a ridiculous half-time but ultimately, I'm glad Spain won. Go on because you've given me one off-camera whinge about... 30 minutes is too long. The shenanigans is nonsense. This should be Football Association 15-minute break, same as it's been since 1883. I'm not interested in Madonna or Shakira or Bieber. I just wanted to get on with the game but, you know, I'm obviously a grumpy old gammon. The people's gammon. Well, I haven't seen it because I've been chastened away here but I think people will be very pleased with the result. I think it was basically the world versus Argentina so I think the world is pretty happy tonight. I'm just imagining Paul thinking all we should have is a couple of mugs of Bovril and a few oranges. Let's not forget what those Argentine players did. Yes. Holding up the sign saying Malvinas. Let me just tell you, any Argentines watching this, they're not yours. The Falkland Islands arouse. Don't ever try it again. What about Gibraltar with the Spanish there? They need to ride back this rhetoric because it's never ever going to go back to Argentina. They never were there anyway. No, they should be sanctioned for that. I think they should be heavily fined. Yes, but it's not just that. It's also the fact they're just a dirty, unpleasant team to watch. They're niggly. They're a team that I don't think plays in the spirit of the game. So, I think this was a win for, well, not a win for the good guys. Let's also be honest. If it wasn't for the tactics that our manager put the other night, we should have beaten them and we were out playing them before he changed it. So, it is a kick in the teeth. Do you think he should have been sacked? I'm not a great lover of him. I thought the team showed heart, but I think that was the players. I think he showed himself very inept with his tactics against Argentina and I think he should step down. I didn't want a German as England manager anyway. If you're just joining us, this is live footage from Madrid where the Spanish are celebrating in style. I imagine it will be a big night on the streets of Madrid this evening. Paul, as you watch this footage, what are your overwhelming feelings about the World Cup? It's obviously, I was going to say bittersweet. It's bittersweet in the sense that the English team did very well up until the semi-finals and then the fact that you could almost taste it, but it was just ripped away. I don't care that Spain have won, I care that Spain beat Argentina. I really enjoyed last night's third place play-off. I think England played with a lot of gusto and that was good to see, took the French to task. Adam's right, in that semi-final, they were there for the taking. When Anthony Gordon scored on 55 minutes, we just shut up shop. There's no way you can shut up shop against a team that's going to just stick five strikers on and kick you up in the air for the next 50-60 minutes. It was exactly what they did. By the way, Argentina showed none of that today against Spain. There was some housery, should we say, but not to the extent there was in the first half against England. We never got three passes together. Do you think that was specific tactics for that game or do you think all of the rhetoric and the political animosity that surrounded that game played a part in how they actually performed? I think it was both things. I think there's a lot of beef when it comes to that game. They've not forgotten how much we tanked them in 1982 and they're never going to forget. We went and beat them in the rugby, which I don't watch. We went and beat them in the rugby yesterday in Argentina. The whole Malvinas thing, that was just a wind-up. Adam's right. At the beginning of the tournament, they were measuring the size of the flags. You couldn't carry them around or put them up. By the end of the tournament, they're wandering around with absolute propaganda. Adam, let's think of a spectrum where if you think the French are the worst, they'll riot at the first sign of any activity. They'll riot about tax changes. They'll riot about accounting measures. Where do the Spanish sit? Can we hope for relatively well-behaved supporters tonight? I believe so. They're a very passionate country. I love Spain. I go to Mallorca a lot. I've got friends that run businesses out there and they're Spanish as well. I'm really pleased for them. For me, the best country won the World Cup. The best football inside won the World Cup. That's justice. I think we could have given them a go, but it would have been very tough against them in the final. I'm not angry at all. I'm just glad those argies lost. I really am disgusted with those players. Any of those players playing in the Premier League, I hope they get booed. Matthew? I can't wait to see the pictures of Trump shaking hands with his nemesis, Spanish Premier Pedro Sanchez. The Prime Minister, probably least wanted to see as the head of the Government of the World Cup winner, who he's criticised over the Iran war and lots of other things. Rightly so as well. He'll have been rooting for Argentina because his mate, Mele, with the chainsaw is their leader. That's the political moment I'll take out from here. I imagine, Paul, that Trump will be next to Gianni Infantino when that trophy is handed over. The head of FIFA, he has not covered himself in glory over the course of this World Cup. Do you think his position is tenable as this World Cup reaches its conclusion? Infantino is an absolute scoundrel. There's no two ways about it. I'm not even going to say this is my opinion. It's a fact. If you don't think he is, Seth Blatter was bad. This guy took a phone call from Trump and rescinded a red card, all the punishment for the red card, for the US team. You can't do that. All the things we've said tonight about Argentina and the way they played in the game. Argentina beat us in 90 minutes. They beat us. They scored the goals. They beat us. I didn't want any changes. There were people saying, because of the flag, we should be in the final. I don't want any of that. There was 90 minutes. It's like a boxing match. You go in there. You give them your best. If you get beat up, you get beat up. It's the same with a football match. The rules are the rules and the game is the game. I like seeing these scenes. I've got to say, I love Spain as a country and their leader, he's trying to ruin it. I'm sorry to interrupt you, but ladies and gentlemen, breathe it in. That is live footage from Buenos Aires and that is the Argentinian fans and aren't they having a ball. Imagine nobody's done a riff on Don't Cry for Me Argentina. Imagine someone walked through there with a Falklands flag. I don't imagine they'd be getting out alive. It's all I can say, but yeah, they certainly are crying in Argentina. Yeah, so I don't think it takes much advanced commentary here to deduce what is going on, ladies and gentlemen, a despondent group of Argentinians. I personally couldn't care less. Paul? No, I don't. I don't care at all. I mean, Spain, Argentina belongs to Spain as well, I want to say. What a great, what a great. I mean, we all love, we all love Spain. Everyone, everyone on this panel except yourself will grow up in this country and probably had their first foreign holiday in Spain, have been to Mallorca with their family, enjoyed the sunshine out there. We all love a bit of Spain. I mean, this whole new Marxist communist stuff that's going on out there at the moment is a bit of a problem. It's interesting you say that because I do want to put a political dimension on this. They do have a socialist, a socialist leader in Pedro Sanchez there. We were reporting on GB News. Franco Sanchez. That's right. We were reporting about a week ago that there are parts of their administration who are predicting up to three million migrants in the next year as opposed, as a result of changes that they are making to their immigration scheme. They are, you know, we had the Boris wave, they are very well likely to get the Sanchez wave. Yeah, that would be double the Boris wave. And let's not forget what Angela Merkel did in Germany, by the way. And that's that experiment is now the best part of 10 years later. That has not worked out well. And they're trying to send as many back as they possibly can. I really do not understand. There's never been a lesson from history that tells us that's a good idea. I really don't understand that. Over to Laza for the counter view. Well, I mean, I don't believe in completely open borders. I mean, I think that there is a Spanish economy is booming, there is a bit of a labour shortage at the moment, which is which is one of the reasons why Sanchez is looking to open borders. I think he's generally a very, very good Prime Minister. I'm not sure that I particularly agree with three million people would be a lot of people for a country of 40 million people would be percentage wise, even bigger than the Merkel wave. So you're importing a load of people that are unskilled, can't speak the language to try and sort that problem out. That's just a nonsense. A nonsense statement there. Look, they're virtue signaling. They're letting in all these migrants because they think it's the good thing to do. And it's the right thing to do. As Paul said, nothing good comes of mass immigration. The crime will spiral. As we've seen in most Western countries, you know, the sex crimes will spiral. We are importing and they are importing people with cultures far different from their own. Nothing good comes of it. Look, and it is it is a contrast, because at the moment what you are seeing in Spain here, the footage is wonderful and it looks like a country united. Looks like there is cohesion there and everyone has been brought together through the power of football, which is and I do want to stick on the football here because I think, again, the Spanish will have their share of problems coming down the pipe. But for now, these are wonderful moments for a great country. Yeah, let's not get this wrong. If Starmer stood up last week and said, I'm now the president of the UK and the dictator and you can never get rid of me. Had we won the World Cup tonight, I still would have been celebrating with everybody else. The football will bring people together for a day or two, and it will, you know, it will boost the economy. It will get a good, it will kick on a good vibe. But make no mistake, Spain are in trouble. We're in trouble. And it's just the beginning. I'm a little bit more cheerful than that. I'm like Andy Burnham. I've got hope in my heart. You just want Madonna at halftime, mate. To round out this conversation, because again, we will, this World Cup will be forgotten in this country soon enough, at least the Spanish victory. But Adam, I want to ask, highlights and lowlights for you of this World Cup? Well, the highlights are the England games at my pub. We had some spectacular nights in there. I mean, a couple of hundred people singing. One time, I think it was 4.35 in the morning, singing the England songs. I haven't seen anything like that. It was great. And I'm just I hope you had your licence extra. Yeah, I did. I was one of the ones that planned in advance and got temporary event notices, and then Starmer opened it up for everyone. Adam bothered planning. So I was a bit annoyed about that. But look, it will be memorable in that fact. I've got new customers that I've never seen before and watching them enjoy themselves. And this World Cup was brilliant. It was just so bitter how it happened. Can you imagine tonight? That was us celebrating, you know, the pub would have would have been great. And we missed out on that. And I believe it's my opinion that Tuchel cost us that. And I think many people think the same. Yeah, no, I think that's right. And look, not just it would have been a wonderful moment for you and for your patrons, it would have lifted the country. I imagine as well, the hospitality sector has copped a hit through that loss as well. That would have been a really nice little boon. Yeah, but one thing about the hospitality sector, restaurants have really suffered over this World Cup. People don't really go to the restaurants, you know, especially around England game days. And one thing I found in a pub, and it was the same with many on my WhatsApp chat who are publicans, is that, yes, we was taking a lot of money on the England games. But the two days before, the two days after, was some of the worst that we've had in years. So look, evens itself out. It hasn't been some amazing thing for the hospitality sector. But now all I want to urge people, if you've got an independent pub in your area, use it because they're going fast. Hear, hear. It is a really tough time for pubs in this country. No small thanks to this Labor government.
