Congratulations to Argentina on winning their third World Cup title after an incredible game that finished 2-2 after 90 minutes and then 3-3 after extra time with Argentina finally winning 4-2 in the penalty shoot out. We’ll discuss the term ‘on penalties‘ which of course was the way that the title was decided, while we’ll also look at some of the words and phrases to describe Mbappé’s performance including the phrase ‘side-on volley‘. We also explain two terms that describe poor misses – specifically for the French side: ‘failed to convert’ and ‘drag wide‘.
