Argentina’s national football team made it to the finals of the FIFA World Cup 2022 after they defeated Croatia by 3-0 in the semifinals on Tuesday night. This game was a pure class from Argentina and Lionel Messi as they took proper revenge on Croatia who defeated them in the last World Cup meeting.
Lionel Messi recorded an assist and a goal in this match. He has now scored 5 goals and has 3 assists in this year’s World Cup. Not only this but the PSG’s forward also became the all-time leading goal-scorer for Argentina in World Cup with 11 goals. Fans are happy to see their team in the finals but their happiness has got a break as Lionel Messi has announced that this final will be his last World Cup game.
One of the greatest footballers Cristiano Ronaldo has already played his last game in the World Cup and now it’s Messi who will be playing his last game and it is very obvious that he wants to make it memorable.
“I feel very happy to be able to achieve this, to finish my World Cup journey by playing my last game in a final. It’s many years before the next one and I don’t think I’ll be able to do it. And to finish like this, it’s the best,” said Lionel Messi to the Argentine media outlet Diario Deportivo Ole.
