and so, just like that, it ends. 104 games. staying up until the sun rises to watch our beautiful sport, because we all know these moments would never come back. last minute goals, heartbreak, triumph, relief, pain, and so many other emotions we all went through this past month; watching it with all of you made it all the more special. i don’t think my vocal chords will recover any time soon, but i wouldn’t trade it for anything. and what a world cup this has been. this is not just a game. it’s a language, a bond, a medium we all share. it doesn’t matter where you’re from, we all become united through this game called football. as beautiful as it was, the world cup is always a time to reflect on those who are no longer with us. we all carry the memories of the people who should have been sitting beside us, enjoying this tournament; this belongs to them just as much as it does to us. thank you for sharing your passion with me. now, we can all finally rest.

The world cup final is over. This tournament has been incredible, and this community has made it far more enjoyable. Thank you to everyone who has played a part in this incredible community. I have loved posting my penguin GIF throughout the tournament. Thank you for making posting a short clip of a penguin kicking a ball infront of a second tier spanish side's badge special. I was born in Sutton on October 7th, 2006. Just under two years later my brother was born, and a year after that we moved to South-West London, where I have lived ever since. I may not be a Castellon fan, but I am an Arsenal fan, like my brother and my parents. We sit and watch all of the matches together, unless we're at the Emirates. I was introduced to Bookd by my brother. I saw him talking on this app and it looked intriguing, so I asked him what the app was, and I downloaded it. Thank you, @elz , for introducing me to Bookd. I found the penguin GIF simply by typing "football" into the GIFs tab. I am unable to recreate this. Perhaps it was fate that I found that GIF. I am 19 years old, and entering the second year of my Games Design university course at my University in central london. I have always had a passion for games. I hope to one day unite my passions for game creation and for football. If anyone wishes to check out my work, play my newest, and by far my best game, Leviathan, at https://spitefulcurb43.itch.io/leviathan . I will continue posting my penguin GIF throughout matches, but expect me to speak actual words from time to time in the Bookd chat. This community is excellent, and recently I have been wondering what will happen after this tournament ends. I have decided we need a Discord server. Everyone is welcome to join. Here is the link: https://discord.gg/Y9Yf7NHBe Once again, thank you to Bookd's developers, community, and most of all, thank you to the gimmicks. I will be able to answer any questions you may have in the replies. And now, for the last time this WC:

I am under the impression that the more English of a day I have on an England matchday, the higher England's chances. I went to a seaside arcade, played the 2p machines, and had fish and chips for lunch. For the first hour and a half of this game, my superstitions seemed futile. England seem to take dangerously long to get going. It was a difficult watch. I was watching the game begging for a creative attacking midfielder to come on. Eberechi Eze performed silent miracles after his substitution, Saka and Gordon should undoubtedly start against Mexico alongside O'Reilly and Spence. Elliot Anderson played excellently. He was by far our best player, particularly for the first sixty minutes. I am terrified for the Mexico game, but I believe we can do this. Come on England. @alf I am very glad that the "Hello Freddie" GIF has arrived!! Thank you for creating it, I smile whenever i see it. (GIF attached below.) @labubu I found a Labubu in the arcade 2p machines. (Image attached below.)

This morning I went for a walk around a park and I went to the beach. I am in a seaside town and it is wonderfully quiet as the summer holidays have not yet begun. I have had a great day and this match was a cherry on top. Japan function excellently as a unit and are a joy to watch. Brazil's display was twice as exciting. Their individual brilliance and flair was on display all throughout the game as it always is. The winner was a clear example of this. I find this result therefore gives me a lot of hope for the state of football. I believe that creativity is what should come to the surface at the highest level of competition. Japan played an excellent game tonight but Brazil have got stars of which can come up with moments, and those moments were on display tonight. We love Gabriel Martinelli.

I did not pay much attention. Ousmane Dembelé is Excellent. I now watched Ebere Ezé, Harry Kane, Lionel Messi, and today Jørgen Strand Larsen all take stutter penalties in the last month and miss. I do not like the stutter penalty. You are professional footballers. You all must have practiced taking penalties thousands of times in your careers. Just kick the ball.

Well that’s our World Cup journey done. I can confidently say that it went just about as I expected when I realized what group we were in after that win against Bolivia in Guadalupe. However, I am still incredibly proud to have witnessed my country participate in this tournament for only the SECOND time in our HISTORY. I think that this group of players has the potential to do something in the future, as long as we don’t shoot ourselves in the foot. And that really is the best way to describe the three games we’ve played here. Shooting ourselves in the foot. Defensive error after defensive error after defensive error. Hopefully in the future, we don’t bottle our qualifying group, so that we don’t end up in the last chance qualifier and seeded to the group of death. I mean, had we not bottled it, we would have been in Jordan’s place, and potentially have an easier group stage run. Not much to say specifically about this game, we conceded early to a set piece (shock) and then received a red card to kill off any hope.

I did not watch the match. I spent today working on a project. Today I am thankful for having an unblocked nose. I encourage everyone experiencing the same to take a moment to feel thankful for this. I had a cold shower today. I was surprised to find the bathroom mirror had not fogged up. I have both learnt something new today and cooled myself down in doing this. I hope we are past the peak of this heatwave and I hope everyone is taking care to stay hydrated and cool in this heat. Thank you @alf for my GIF. I have seen it on KLIPY but I cannot find it on the Bookd GIF search function. I have saved the GIF and attached it below. Perhaps it should be renamed on KLIPY with key words such as "Bookd"? I enjoyed watching Alf and Elz fight in Pokémon this morning. I will not be present for the matches taking place this evening and early morning. I hope everyone that does enjoys the matches and manages to get good rest despite this fact. I like to imagine there will be penguins in the chat regardless of my presence. Good night everybody, sleep well.

This game was a frustrating watch. The first half was dominant from England without a glimpse of a goal. The second half implied England struggle to attack successfully without defensive flaws arising. I believe that Ghana deserved a penalty and Jordan Pickford should have been sent off. The refereeing was poor and favoured England. I believe that this performance does not highlight significant weakness in England as they will be playing less defensive teams in more crucial fixtures in the later stages of the tournament. I wish Eberechi Eze had been started in place of Jude Bellingham. I believe he would have scored in the first half an hour. I appreciate the importance of rotation but I hope Thomas Tuchel has learnt that Nico O'Reilly is more suited to the Left Back position than Djed Spence. I respect Spence for refusing to shake Thomas Partey's hand, however. Thank you for your time.

I would like to use this space to call for a ceasefire in the Middle East. Each day the war continues is a day that people suffer and die. Lionel Messi is a very good footballer. Austria work together wonderfully. I expect Argentina to do well this tournament. I believe if Messi can be successfully marked out of a Knock Out Stage Match Argentina may struggle. Thank you for your time.
