Punchline 1: If this final were a sniper joke, the only thing sharper than the strikers' shots would be the punchlines in the commentators' booth—dead on target. Punchline 2: My couch has placed its bets on Morocco, but my popcorn is rooting for a dramatic extra-time encore—either way, we win on snack time.
