Argentina won the FIFA World Cup for the third time when Gonzalo Montiel scored the winning penalty at Lusail Stadium north of Doha after a very exciting game. After France’s Kingsley Coman and Aurélien Tchouaméni missed their penalties, Argentina won the shootout 4–2.
In one of the craziest World Cup finals in the tournament’s 92-year history, Messi scored two goals and one more in a shootout on Sunday to help Argentina beat France 4-2 on penalties after a 3-3 tie and win its third title.
During all of this, France forwards Kylian Mbappé, who is expected to take over for Messi, who is now 35, scored the first hat trick in a final in 56 years. He did everything he could to be like Pelé, who won his first two World Cups with Brazil.
