Epic Argentina vs France FIFA World Cup 2022, Qatar
Argentina won on penalties after sharing a World Cup final for the ages with France.And Lionel Messi reinforced his assertions that he is the greatest football player in history.The FIFA final from last night was circling everyone’s heads like an arrow.
By his astronomical standards, the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner frequently failed to perform at his peak at the World Cup. This time, at age 35, he made history by becoming the first player to score in every round of a single tournament in the contemporary World Cup format, paving the door to a triumph he had long sought throughout his incredible career.
However, KylianMbappe, a colleague of Messi’s from Paris Saint-Germain, scored a hat-trick twice from the spot in a thrilling 3-3 draw to become the second player in World Cup final history to do so.At the beginning of the shootout, he did it once more, but Emiliano Martinez stopped KinglseyComan’s penalty kick, and AurelienTchoumeni’s shot was wide. After Messi, Paulo Dybala, and Leandro Paredes all scored from the penalty spot, Gonzalo Montiel had the chance to send Hugo Lloris the wrong way and give his nation its third World Cup victory.
Final score, results and highlights
In the first half, Argentina dominated France, which was trying to regain the championship for the first time since Brazil in 1962. Messi scored Argentina’s game-winning goal from the penalty spot in the 23rd minute after Ousmane Dembele fouled Di Maria.
Di Maria was a surprising pick on the left wing and repeatedly tormented Les Bleus before netting one of the great World Cup championship goals. The Juventus winger expertly executed a cutting counter-attack that included Messi, Julian Alvarez, and Alexis Mac Allister.
For the first time since 1986, Argentina won the World Cup.After defeating France on penalties in the championship game at the Lusail Iconic Stadium. This prevented them from having to wait at least 40 years for their third World Cup victory.
Messi discovered the solution Argentina so desperately needed as penalties grew closer. The talisman executed a deft move, and although France unsuccessfully attempted to argue that his finish had not crossed the line, it was still insufficient to defeat France.
Two minutes before the end, Mbappe scored his third goal to complete his hat-trick, but his team was unable to convert both of their subsequent penalties, losing the championship by the thinnest of margins.
