The Someone needs to tell the World Cup script writers to go back to the drawing board because no one's going to believe this one.

This is the Arsenal Vision World Cup Daily.

My name is Elliot Smith.

I can block me on Twitter, Yankee Gunner, the final World Cup Daily.

And I'm going to just tell you in advance, it's not going to rival the match.

All right.

I mean, whatever job we do, we're not going to do that good a job.

And yet, if the script writers came to you and said, hey, we have an idea for a script,

it's going to feature the greatest player of all time in his sport.

And the young pretender to his throne going up against him, toe to toe in the biggest match of the biggest tournament in the sport.

And they're going to trade blows and it'll look like the old legend has it, but the young buck will fire back and blah, blah, blah. You'd be like, no,

syrupy, not believe, it's exactly what we got. It's everything you'd hope a final could be. It's

everything narratively, everything visually. Sure, there might have been 40 minutes of meh in there,

but that only served to make what happened after more incredible. And we're going to try to explain what we just watched, cover the moments, maybe put the history we've just seen into context, and a quick look back on the tournament. When I say we, of course, I'm talking about Philcaste. You can find him on Twitter and underscore Phil Costa. Hello, Vecosta. And breathe. And breathe. I mean, and breathe. I mean, that was, I mean, what a way to

to round these podcasts out. What a way. I mean, that was, I said it on Twitter. I think that was

genuinely the most incredible match I've ever seen. I needed to go to the bathroom for like 45

minutes. Didn't want to do it

for fear that I'd miss something incredible. I was opening windows. I was closing the windows.

I was looking at my phone. I was nervously squeezing every, you know, every part of my thigh that I

could. It was, you know, it was just incredible. Really, I loved it, and I had no skin in the game.

And my heart didn't stop racing for the last 65 minutes of that.

And it was brilliant.
