Some of my french acquaintances called your team "Cappuccino Team".
They are not in the 30-50 range, rather in the 18-28 range.

Also I hate to bring up the topic of race again in a football thread, but I have a good friend from Lyon and he told me most white French people don't give two shits about the current squad since it's blatantly not "French". I don't know what the future of French football looks like but it seems that this is an issue they will have to deal with sooner or later.

I mean just watching the game and looking at the players and the commentators going "Pogba to Payet to Kante to Martial...."

It's kind of a big joke.

"Most white French people"?

Maybe among the elders and 30-50s, however I would be more inclined to believe young people do not give a shit about their race.

Congrats to all portuguese members here for the first title in their history .
I was delighted to see them win ,well deserved for a great nation which I truly admire ever since my first visit back in 1995 .

Shout out to Ciganito "Ricardo Quaresma " who was a lucky element in the squad after he was ignored by Scolari back in 2004 , WC 2006 and by Paulo Bento in Euro 2012 . This literally brought tears to my eyes seeing my old time favourite player along with CR7 finally win something together since they played in Sporting . One word , Parabens !
