Marseille, city of football par excellence. A good number of Marseille.es followed the France-Argentina World Cup final in the bars and on the street
As scheduled, the meeting began at 4 pm with the presence of people in front of some bars and/or tobacco shops that had installed screens; calm atmosphere. At half-time the Blues were 2-0 down, some no longer believing it while others remained basically optimistic. Little by little the groups gathered in front of the shop windows grew, to cheer for Mbappé’s 2 goals in quick succession. Everything has become possible again in this match.
During the break before extra time, the Marseillais poured into the city center ready to experience victory. There were enough at the bottom of the Canebière for a certain shopkeeper to turn off the television and lower the iron curtain in the face of the growing crowd… Which gave, for example, more than 300 people rushing to the Old Port to find a another screen where you can follow the end of the game! Great anguish when Argentina found the net for the 3rd time in the 2nd extra time… Knowing that from jubilation to delirium, there was only one goal with the 3-3 draw for the anchor Mbappé.
You know the rest, all of France knows it, including the people of Marseille who testify on video…
