Messi, Mbappe give Qatar the perfect World Cup ending

The World Cup was kissed by Lionel Messi, who was wearing a black Qatari robe over his blue-and-white Argentina jersey. He then moved toward his teammates and raised the golden trophy in the air.

It was a memorable moment that officially elevates the soccer superstar to the hall of fame of the sport.

Messi’s once-in-a-generation career is over now that he has won the World Cup.

Argentina won its third World Cup victory by defeating France 4-2 on penalties following a 3-3 draw that featured two goals from the 35-year-old Messi and a hat trick from France forward Kylian Mbappé. This was likely the wildest final in the tournament’s 92-year history.

It’s really amazing that it came to pass in this manner, stated Messi. “I was really desperate for this. I had faith that God would give me this gift. I sensed that this World Cup was going to be it.

Mbappé did everything in his power to mimic Brazilian legend Pelé as a champion at his first two World Cups among the commotion inside Lusail Stadium. Moreover, he achieved the first hat trick in a championship game since Geoff Hurst for England in 1966.

It wasn’t sufficient.
