The FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 final between Argentina and France will be held on December 18, local time.
For 35-year-old Argentine FW Lionel Messi, this will be the game he longs to win for the first time.
Regardless of the outcome, he has made it clear that it will be his last World Cup match. The U.S. newspaper Sporting News reports.
Messi has won all the major club titles, including the UEFA Champions League (CL) title, and major individual titles, including the Ballon d’Or, but he has never been able to win the World Cup, even though he is a great player. Before the Qatar World Cup began, Messi had stated that it would be his last World Cup, and he has been in good shape for the tournament, scoring five goals and providing three assists in six appearances, contributing greatly to Argentina’s run to the final.
I am very happy to play my last match in the World Cup in the final,” Messi said. I am very happy to play my last match in the final,” he said, declaring that the final would be his last match at the World Cup. He continued, “When I look back on the World Cup I have spent so far and think about how much I have enjoyed my time in Argentina, I am emotional. There are many years between this year and the next tournament. But not for me. So it’s great to finish like this,” he said, vowing to give it his all, adding, “This time, I will do my best as ever so that we can really win.
