Argentina Gives France the L in a Thrilling Defeat to Win the 2022 World Cup!

The World Cup final produced heart-stopping action on Sunday as Argentina and France battled for the title … and the outcome was a shootout.

Everyone was on the edge of their seats during the full 90 minutes as well as the 30 minutes of extra time after the match ended tied at 2-2. Lionel Messi scored Argentina’s third goal in extra time, and Kylian Mbappe tied it up once again … sending the game to penalties.

Gonzalo Montiel scored the winning goal for Argentina in penalties following three straight goals and two misses from France. France didn’t stand a chance when Lloris dived in the other direction.

The two teams’ leaders, Messi and Mbappe, scored their own penalties, as did the rest of the Argentina squad. Two French players, however, blundered.

Mbappe was the only player on his team to keep them in the fight … scoring all three of France’s goals, earning a hat trick, and giving his squad the determination to continue playing. The outcome was a calamity, as all of Mbappe’s hard work was lost in a lottery.

There was lots of action up and down the pitch, as well as amazing soccer, until the very end of the match. The match was outstanding up until the end, and sports fans could not have wished for anything better.

Messi is retiring after this World Cup, and this was a great farewell. He is guaranteed to be awarded the Player of the Tournament award as well as all other honours for individual accomplishment. Messi will go out on top in the World Cup, and he will be remembered as a legend.
