Argentina swept the world cup for the third time after defeating France 4-2 on penalties in the thrilling final at the Lusail Stadium, putting an end to Lionel Messi’s quest for the one big prize that had eluded him throughout his illustrious career. Argentina scored three times in the contest on goals from Messi and Angel Di Maria. However, Kylian Mbappe of France scored a hat-trick, forcing the game into penalties. Gonzalo Montiel then had his moment to shine by making the game-winning penalty kick.
Throughout the competition in Qatar, Messi had a significant impact and became the only player to ever win the award twice. The World Cup trophy was traditionally raised on a temporary stage in the centre of the field. As he carefully caressed the solid gold cup, Messi emanated pride.
