The Watch Class of Lies OnlineWorld Cup is over -- congratulations, France -- but don't despair and roll around on the ground like Neymar after a phantom foul. Instead, revel in some of the strange and wonderful stats we can pore over thanks to Pornhub.
While most of the world spent part of their Sunday watching the tilt between France and Croatia, Pornhub was watching their website traffic drop.
SEE ALSO: Punk band Pussy Riot stage World Cup protestThe site has now released data surrounding the World Cup and, surprise, traffic dropped the most in the finalist countries with a pretty sizable dip across the rest of the soccer-crazed world. It's notable that the drop was a bit less in Germany and Brazil, two world soccer powers who probably expected their teams to be playing in the final.

While Croatia seemed more focused on soccer than porn in the lead-up to the match, they seemed to hit the site quicker after the match than their French counterparts. That makes sense, given that the French were out celebrating and Croatian fans needed to find solace somewhere.

For instance, French fans were pretty consistent in when they turned away from Pornhub -- except for following their thrilling semi-final victory over Belgium when they saw the biggest spike. If you're going to hold off on the street celebrations until the final, I guess you've still got to find an outlet for that semi-final jubilation.

You can also see pretty clearly how the country handled the pressure of three-straight extra time matches in the knock-out round: glued to the television for extra soccer and then glued to their laptops for a little stress relief.

There were a few fun tidbits, though. For instance, India and Japan apparently didn't care enough about the final to really affect their usual traffic patterns for that time on a Sunday (which, admittedly, was in the middle of the night in Japan). And the United States did see a drop, but not a significant one which raises the question: If soccer can't cut deep into our porn viewing, will it ever break through in America?

Rest assured, though, Pornhub will have plenty of holiday-themed videos to entice viewers following the matches.
