Kylian Mbappé scored a hat trick seemingly from out of nowhere to electrify the World Cup final, he ended the tournament as the leading scorer with eight goals, and he still missed out on winning a second straight title. The France superstar was on the losing side of an epic final against Argentina that was settled in a penalty shootout after a 3-3 draw on Sunday. He was then consoled on the field by French President Emmanuel Macron. “Kylian has really left his mark on this final,” France coach Didier Deschamps said. Read more: Messi wins World Cup to push claim to be soccer's GOAT Mbappé had been the leader France desperately needed as time was running out with the defending champions trailing 2-0 and playing poorly. The forward had also been almost invisible up to that point. But his goals carried France back into the match — twice. First, late in regulation time. Then again deep in extra time. Mbappé converted a penalty in the 80th minute and then scored with a volley from just inside the area in the 81st. It took only 97 seconds for him to get France even with Argentina and the great Lionel Messi. Mbappé scored a second penalty in extra time, about 10 minutes after Messi had given Argentina the lead again in what became a compelling duel between the two players. Mbappé's hat trick was only the second in a World Cup final — the other was by England striker Geoff Hurst in 1966. The Frenchman leaves Qatar with the Golden Boot trophy as the tournament’s top scorer with eight goals. At the age of 23, he's matched Pelé's career total of 12 World Cup goals. But Mbappé couldn't quite match the Brazil great's back-to-back World Cup titles — both players were teenagers when they won their first one, Pelé in 1958 and Mbappé in 2018. One minute before Mbappé turned the game on its head, Argentina’s fans began to taunt him. Chants of “Olé, Olé” rained down from the stands at Lusail Stadium as Mbappé futilely chased the ball while his opponents passed it over and around him.

But after scoring his first two goals, Mbappé surged into the Argentina half looking for a game-winning third. His darting, twisting run resulted in a shot deflected just too high. Once he eventually got the hat trick to make it 3-3 in extra time, Mbappé set out for a fourth. His curling cross barely eluded the head of substitute Randal Kolo Muani, and a final dribble deep into the Argentina penalty area was scrambled clear as he looked to shoot. He shouted out loud as his last attempt to win the game single-handedly slipped away. Mbappé tried to set the tone in the penalty shootout, taking responsibility for the first kick. He converted the penalty but France still ended up losing 4-2. Messi did the same for Argentina to start the shootout, but his teammates all scored their penalties. During the shootout, Mbappé made sure he was the first to console Kingsley Coman and Aurélien Tchouaméni on their slow walks back to the center circle after their failures to score. Mbappé stood bent over in the center circle, hands on his knees, as Argentina defender Gonzalo Montiel prepared to take the decisive kick. He then squatted, saw the net ripple and walked away alone amid the Argentina celebrations. Deschamps eventually came over behind his player to put arms around his neck. Mbappé soon went to the team dugout and sat slumped in a chair with his dark blue shirt pulled up over his face to hide his emotions. Long after the game was over, Mbappé left the stadium with his head bowed and the World Cup trophy securely in the hands of Messi.

Di Maria doubled Argentina's lead in the 36th minute after Lionel Messi scored on a penalty to make it 1-0 for Argentina against France. Di Maria started for the first time since sustaining a foot injury against Poland in the final round of group matches. The 34-year-old took the place of Leandro Paredes in midfield as Argentina again rolled out a 4-4-2 formation, with Messi one of the two forwards. Messi is making a record 26th appearance at the World Cup, breaking a tie with Germany great Lothar Matthäus. Messi's matches have been spread over five World Cups, starting in 2006. It was Messi's 12th World Cup goal. Like France, Argentina are seeking a third World Cup title — after 1978 and 1986 — to move into outright fourth place in the all-time list. It would end a 36-year wait for football's biggest prize, since Maradona's string of virtuoso performances in Mexico in 1986.

The Greatest Show on Earth has come to the very end. Lionel Messi’s Argentina became the first team to qualify for the final after defeating Croatia 3-0 in the first semi-final of the World Cup. Now, fans are dreaming of seeing the trophy in Lionel Messi’s hand. The Qatar World Cup might be Lionel Messi’s last appearance in the tournament. Can Messi lift the trophy for Argentina after 36 years? Can Argentina win the 2022 Football World Cup? Argentina’s Chances and Potentials to Win the World Cup Argentina has reached another World Cup final after eight years. After winning Copa America in 2021 under Lionel Scaloni, Argentina started dreaming of winning the World Cup. But this dream once sounded like a struggle. After losing to Saudi Arabia in the first match, many experts reminded Argentina of what happened to them in the 2002 World Cup in Asia. But, it seems Scaloni has learned from the past, which is proved by their performance in the last 5 matches of this World Cup. And apparently that the loss against Saudi Arabia has opened their eyes. After that, Argentina won over Mexico, Poland, Australia, Netherlands, and Croatia. Now they are facing the toughest team of this World Cup, France, who are having an incredible pace with some of the best players such as Mbappe, Olivier Giroud, and Aurélien Tchouaméni. They will be a real obstacle to Argentina’s win. However, Argentina has a very strong and talented team, and their recent performance has been consistent too. This year Argentina has played 16 international matches, including the World Cup. And Argentina has not lost any matches except for Saudi Arab’s upset. That being said, Argentina has been very consistent throughout the year and seems to win the World Cup at any cost. Additionally, After 11 months of Argentina’s Copa America winning, they also won the intercontinental supremacy battle, ‘La Finalissima’, against the Euro winners Italy. After that, Argentina’s 2022 World Cup dream gained more strength. Argentina is now one of the biggest favorites. Considering the opponent, France’s current pace and record, Argentina’s chance of winning the World Cup becomes low. But an incredible performance from some players such as Messi and Emiliano Martínez will surely increase Argentina’s Chances. Read More: Messi evokes Maradona comparisons on road to World Cup final Which Players May Increase Argentina’s Chance of Winning? Argentina has been dependent on Messi throughout the last decade. But this year, the team has reduced its dependency on Messi. And there are other players who can impact Argentina’s overall performance. But no one can ignore Messi. His presence gives the ultimate strength to the team. However, Messi could not fulfill his dream in the previous four World Cups. This year Messi seems to be unstoppable. This football magician has been creating records throughout the tournament. Sometimes broke the late football legends Diego Maradona or Gabriel Batista’s records and sometimes jumped into their records. With his extraordinary performance, Messi won four man-of-the-match awards in this tournament. So, it will be difficult for Argentina to win if France stops Messi. Apart from Messi, if one player can help Argentina, he is the goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez. From COPA to the World Cup, Martinez has proved his class. He has played 24 matches for the national team so far. He has been playing regularly since the beginning of this World Cup. But in the quarterfinal, He introduced himself more aesthetically, as he stopped the Netherlands in the quarterfinal. Power, perfect movement, impeccable skill, balance, and excellent diving are the qualities that a good goalkeeper should possess, and Emi has all of these qualities. Experts say the presence of these qualities or materials in Martinez is excellent. Argentina now has 100% on him. Now experts are also reminding Argentina’s former goalkeeper Sergio Goycochea. Argentina’s Goycochea was the talk of the town in the 1990s, just as Martinez was about guarding Argentina’s goalpost. Read Mode: ‘To finish this way is brilliant’: Messi’s last dance, last chance for World Cup glory Final Words Argentina is always on the list of favorites in the World Cup, and having Lionel Messi in the team boosts their chances. After winning the World Cup in 1978 and 1986, Argentina played the finals in 1990 and 2014. This time, Argentina has lit the expectations based on Messi.  Yet a dismal performance in the 2018 World Cup and then a shaky Argentina in the first one and half years under Lionel Scaloni did not have any hope as ‘hot favorites for the World Cup. But everything changed when Argentina won the 2021 Copa America. Now, Argentina is one match away from proving themselves. 

The blue-and-white wall of Argentina fans launched into another rendition of their World Cup anthem as fulltime approached at Lusail Stadium. “Maradona,” they sang, “is cheering Lionel on” from heaven. The parallels between the two all-time greats of Argentine soccer, Diego Maradona and Lionel Messi, are becoming ever more striking in Qatar. Just like the 1986 World Cup seemed to be a highlight reel for Maradona, Messi has made his mark on this tournament with a string of spectacular goals and assists, carrying Argentina’s class of 2022 into the final. There have always been echoes of Maradona in Messi — his size, his dribbling skills, his quick feet, his wand of a left foot. Add in the leadership and fighting qualities he has shown throughout the tournament and it really does feel like Messi is imbued with the spirit of Maradona as he closes in on soccer’s ultimate prize. “Messi is playing the Maradona role in the World Cup,” Jorge Valdano, who was in Argentina’s victorious World Cup squad in 1986, said in an interview to TyC Sports channel. That was clear to see in Messi’s latest stirring performance as Argentina beat Croatia 3-0 on Tuesday to advance to the World Cup final for the sixth time. Read more: ‘To finish this way is brilliant’: Messi’s last dance, last chance for World Cup glory And nothing encapsulated his magnificence more than his assist for the third goal, scored by Julian Alvarez. Receiving the ball on the touchline just inside Croatia’s half, Messi lifted the ball over the challenge of Josko Gvardiol and sprinted down the right flank. Gvardiol chased him, constantly grabbing the jersey of the Argentina captain, and was then bewitched as Messi dropped his shoulder and swiveled the other way to turn and burst into the area. Then came the simple cross with his right foot that Alvarez swept home. It was another moment of magic in a tournament that has been full of them by Messi. “Personally,” Messi said, “I can say that I feel very happy in this whole World Cup. I am enjoying it a lot and luckily enough I can help my whole squad to make things happen.” After the match, an Argentine reporter conducting a post-match interview with Messi broke off from asking questions and told him that, whatever happened in the final, he had succeeded in making a mark on every Argentine’s life and was bringing joy to the country. And for Messi, it is now about more than just winning soccer matches. “It is no longer only the result but the road we have traveled,” he said. “Before in Argentina, it was valued to win or lose, but I think people now value other things.” That may be so, but winning the World Cup would cement his legacy, allowing him to join Pele and Maradona in the pantheon of soccer’s greatest players. He might be there already, but being a World Cup winner would end the debate. Messi reiterated that this would most probably be his last dance at a World Cup — he will turn 39 during the 2026 tournament in the United States, Canada and Mexico. And he’s been doing plenty of dancing, on the field after matches and in the locker room, as Argentina has rebounded with five wins following a shocking loss to Saudi Arabia in its World Cup opener. “It was an acid test for this whole squad but this squad proved how strong we are,” Messi said. “We won the next matches. It was very difficult what we did because every match was a final and this was a mental load because we knew things would be more complicated for us. “We managed to win five finals and I hope it will be this way for the last game. Internally, we were confident that we would make it because we know what we are capable of as a squad.” Read more: Special record that Messi can break if he plays in FIFA World Cup 2022 final After the victory over the Netherlands in the quarterfinals, Messi said Maradona — who died two years ago — was looking over the team as Argentina came through a heated, fiery match. “Diego is watching us from heaven,” Messi said. “He is pushing us. I hope it stays like that until the end.” Well, Messi will be there at the end. And he is doing his very best impression of Maradona along the way.
