The French winning the final match was almost like an anti-climax. I was expecting another upset after the countless upsets we had during the first round, second round, QF and even during the semi-finals.
Considering the tournament has progresses people where expecting another upset in the final but just do not know it did not happen. I am sure many gamblers would have bet for Croatia as the rate was high for this team and also the chances of another upset may have being possible.
Well.. I heard rumors that many of the gambling sites took heavy losses, after people won money betting on teams such as Croatia, Iceland and even Russia. It will take a long time for them to recover this much money.
