On December 18, Argentina defeated France 4-2 in a penalty shootout to claim the 2022 World Cup following a 3-3 draw after two extra periods.
Penalty shootout developments
First up is France. Mbappe defeated Martinez in the opening round of shots despite the fact that the Argentine goalkeeper made the correct estimate. On the Argentine side, Messi defeated Lloris as well.
Emiliano Martinez effectively deflected Coman’s kick in the second round of shots. Then Dybala scored a goal directly into the centre to give Argentina a 2-1 lead.
Tchouameni took a shot in the third round, and Paredes defeated Lloris. Leading 3-1 is Argentina.
Kolo Muani defeated Martinez in the fourth round with a middle-of-the-range shot. Montiel hit his target on the Argentine side.
Argentina prevailed 4-2 in the shootout. For the first time in his career, Messi took home the World Cup trophy.
Messi declared that the 2022 World Cup final would be his last game in the competition after Argentina defeated Croatia. The 34-year-old striker once caused supporters’ hearts to break by appearing to turn away from the World Cup after falling short to Germany in the 2014 final in Brazil. Messi now has the chance to round out his career for the second time in the final.
Argentina would have to travel across an actual mountain, though, for this lovely scenario to materialize. The defending champion France demonstrated that they were still a power despite losing many cornerstones to injuries, including Karim Benzema, Paul Pogba, N’golo Kante, and Lucas Hernandez. This was in the setting of the strong European football background. France will be more respected in the upcoming championship game because to Didier Deschamps’ sound system and the team’s superstars.
In its last ten World Cup matches against South American opponents, France has never suffered a loss. Their most recent loss came in the group stage against Argentina in 1978, which they lost 1-2. The history of their head-to-head encounters, though, favors Argentina. France only won three of its 12 games across all tournaments, losing six. Argentina won two of the three World Cup meetings out of these six. However, France prevailed 4-3 thanks to a pair of goals from Mbappe in their lone World Cup elimination round matchup and final encounter. When both players have five goals, Messi is vying with Messi for the World Cup Golden Ball as well as the Top Scorer award.
Marcos Acuna and Gonzalo Montiel, two fullbacks who missed the semifinals due to suspension, were welcomed back by Argentina. Midfielder Alejandro Gomez is the lone player missing from the South American team as a result. The French team is battling the virus outbreak in the meanwhile. Among the victims were Dayot Upamecano, Adrien Rabiot, Kingsley Coman, Raphael Varane, and Ibrahima Konate. Before the championship game, these five players have returned to practice, but they might not be in the ideal shape.
