FIFA World Cup 2022 Discussion Thread

Lionel Messi has finally won the world cup,am so happy for him, he deserves it, it has been a long time coming when they lost to Germany in 2014 I thought they won't be another opportunity for him but he proves me wrong, he won it on his last match for Argentina because prior to the final he has already declare that he is going to end his international career in Qatar.i think with this trophy he has nothing else to criticize him with.

many are happy about this, we remember that since he participated in continuously defending Argentina in the World Cup from 2006 to 2018, finally Lionel Messi was able to finish it to bring his country to victory.
now at the age of 35 (June 24, 1987) of course not young anymore for the next 4 years, it is only fitting that long ago he would end his international career in Qatar.
in the end Lionel Messi has made history for himself and his country, of course this will not be forgotten.
congrats to Lionel Messi on this achievement and you will be remembered as a great football player certainly the same as the previous Argentine legend Diego Maradona.

Given that Saudi Arabia won against Argentina...

Does that mean that Saudi Arabia is better than the world champion?  

In any case, Morocco, Tunisia, and Saudi Arabia did really well in this world cup, whereas Qatar did very bad, they only scored one goal and got zero points.

[Don Pedro Dinero]

Well, finally, congratulations to both teams, as both deserved to win. Messi and Mbappe were spectacular and decisive. The fact that they ended up in the penalty shootout shows how evenly matched they were, and that although Argentina dominated until the 80th minute, then the game turned around and there were moments when they could have lost.

[Docnaster]

It was an exciting world cup final. both teams kept the spectators in suspense throughout the match. Mbappe showed the lion in him but was only good enough to stop Messi in the full 90 minutes, but at the end of the penalty shootout, the real goat was known. It wouldn't have been easy for Argentina if not for Messi.
while Messi and mbappe become the talk of the day, I give honor to Angel di Maria, the man who never joked with the little opportunity he is given. I observed that the pressure produced by Argentina throughout the first half was chiefly contributed by Di Maria, and the effect was seen when he was substituted in the 64th minute of the game. Di Maria is one of the greatest wingers I have ever seen in football history.

[Despairo]

What a play by both clubs, honestly I was watching the first half, after Argentina is temporary won 2-0 against France, I go to sleep since I think France will lost and there's no way to comeback since 2 goals is quite hard. But I was wrong, when I check the final score, Mbappe was able to make it draw by scoring 3 goals alone, while Argentina score one more goal. I believe many users here are lost their bets since they will bet either France or Argentina on moneyline option lol.

It's really a close match, I think Mbappe is taking personal against his teammates since they're failed in the penalty.

[Fara Chan]

Almost six hours left in the start of the big final between Argentina and France. I hope you people have placed the bet on your favorite team and hope your team wins.

Both teams are favorites to win today's final and we can't say if one team is stronger than the other. It will be a big game not only for the two nations but also for the two star players Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé .

Any idea if there would be an ending ceremony before the start of the match today in Qatar ? Timings?

Finally, Agentina managed to win the World Cup this time. The match was quite tense. In the first half, Argentina controlled the match and were able to score two goals. While France was only able to get up after the second half, Kylian Mbappe was one of the players who was able to make a difference in this match.

Congratulations Argentina for a great achievement, it has been waiting for so long and finally won the championship this year. Lionel Messi became the best player and Kylian Mbappe Top Score.

And also a relatively friendly encounter. I had thought that some cards would be handed out, but that has remained limited. The referee also whistled very well, I couldn't catch him making a single mistake this match. It will be a huge relief for Messi that he has become world champion after all. It had to happen now, because in 3.5 years he would really be of a different level than this year. He has occasionally shown great things in this tournament. Mbappe also showed himself with no less than 3 goals in the final. What a spectacular finish.

Yep. It was so much fun watching the game. Excited to the end.
Confidence that the end will be good, and the end is good.
The team that lost the first match, got back up and to be champions
Thanks to Messi for giving us this expected world temperature again. Thanks for everything. No argument, the GOAT
But this is not just Argentina's victory. Messi fans also win, and the triumph of the world.

Messi dream is now a dream come true after winning the World Cup final today. Messi is crowned player of the World Cup with 7 goals and 3 assists. He won a trophy in all competitions he has played for in football.
10 La Liga
7 Copa del Rey
7 Supercopa de España
4 Champions League
3 UEFA Super Cup
3 Club World Cup
1 Ligue 1
1 Copa America
1 World Cup!
7 Ballon d'Or
A LEGEND in Football he is today haven won all these trophies in his career. Mbappe is the next top player to watch in football, and after displaying so much exceptional quality in today's final game, I expect him to outperform Messi and Ronaldo.

You're missing the Beijing 2008 Olympic gold.

He won that medal when he was 21 years old.

Mbappe as far as I know, hasn't won that one yet.

[RockBell]

Congratulations to Argentina on their victory yesterday. Messi received the award for best player, but other than that, there wasn't anything noteworthy. I was overcome with emotion when I saw everyone crying and gazing at D maria because it was their generation's final chance to win the trophy. Yesterday's match was one of the most entertaining World Cup games I've ever seen because it was clear that both teams had worked incredibly hard to win the trophy. mbappe might be the next goat we hope been the highest goal scorer.

[rendravolt]

Mbappe scored the most goals in this final match of FIFA World Cup 2022 today.  And Mbappe deserves the Golden Boot.  Why Mbappe has more goals in FIFA World Cup than any other player.  But today's victory is Argentina's gut-wrenching victory that is enshrined in history and the mind-blowing victory of the gallery audience.  This victory and long playing time will never be erased in the history which will be written in golden letters.  Because today's game has never happened in history that Argentina's victory has moved people's hearts.

Mbappe's efforts were so hard in this match, there are not many words that can come out to describe the excitement of this match. Everyone is very excited waiting for the results of who will win the 2022 world cup trophy, while the two teams play so solidly for each other's goals. But the match eventually ended in a penalty shootout and a unanimous win for argentina and messi was what everyone wanted.

Feeling really sad for Mbappe he tried so much to win this final and so is Messi but I don't know what went wrong in penalty shootout.  Why players don't succeed in that part of  game. Argentina's hardwork and dedication was very clear in the game so they won the trophy.

[W Jr.]

It was a very exciting match, we watched a very good match until the last seconds. Once again, I respect that Messi is still playing so well at this age.
The most exciting part of the match started after 75 minutes. Mbappe also played very well and did a great job scoring a hat trick in the world cup final.
Congratulations to Argentina and Messi

After the 75th minute of the match, there was such a game that I was out of breath while watching it. There can be no such match. France is back at the last minute. They came back once again in overtime. I thought they would have morale on the penalties, but they took very bad penalty shots. It means that Argentina also worked well in the penalty shootout. They scored flawlessly and they all scored. The dream that Messi has been waiting for years has come true. Congratulations to Argentina, of course, as well as Messi.

I'll tell you my opinion, at the end of the match you could see how the referee was trying to help the French team, but Argentina was so assertive that it led to its logical conclusion, to their victory. It was clear how difficult it was psychologically for the Argentine players, they seemed to feel the burden of responsibility. It was a good final, and the strongest won. Mbappe will also become a football legend, he is a very big talent and he still has his whole career ahead of him!

This is actually a ridiculous claim that the referee was on the side of France towards the end. The referee might have made some few bad calls but he did well in that game. The luckiest team that benefitted from this bad calls was Argentina, the foul on Marcus thuram in the ending minutes of the regular time was a clear penalty because there was contact from Romero. Had VAR intervened it would have been given. Overall the referee had a decent game. Argentina were throwing there bodies alot into the game which made him gave fouls to France at the ending of the game.


My curiosity is why didn't VAR intervene on penalty calls and or the wrong ones given almost throughout the knockout stages. Did FIFA Scrapped it from that moment?

[Daltonik]

Yes, the final match was simply excellent in its drama, I certainly expected a quick and effective game from the French national team throughout the match, and not how they started this meeting. But the Argentine national team really looked better and was able to win the WC in Qatar, now Messi can be deservedly considered the greatest football player and there is no arguing.

[Zanab247]

 The favorite team in this FIFA world cup, Argentina under the captaincy of magical Lionel Messi who used everything possible to achieved goals in final game to won the FIFA world cup title for the third time. Many people lost their hope on Argentina until they beat defending champions France through penalty shootout. Lionel Messi prove it again to Mpappe that he still remain the senior man in the FIFA world cup competition.

Well I respect your opinion about the performance of the referees, but it's all over and Argentina won the 2022 world cup, the most important thing is that both countries play well and beyond that I can't comment more, basically I just enjoy football and don't really want to deal with it things beyond that. Kylian mbappe's future is still long and his career will continue to shine in world competitions or in regular competitions.

after all it will not be possible for france to get the world cup in a row of course argentina will also not let it happen again give it up for the umpteenth time, they continue to play as best they can in extra time, that's why argentina's champion mentality is huge and argentina deserves this world cup after fasting since 1986, I think the match is also over, I just want to say congratulations to Messi et al as well as Argentina

The most favorite teams in this year's World Cup were Brazil, Belgium and France. But leaving everyone behind, this time the champion is King Messi's Argentina. After the humiliating defeat of the first match, the Argentine team made a remarkable comeback. Argentina's match tactics have impressed in every match. Coach Lionel Scaloni and Lionel Messi are the main heroes behind Argentina's championship. At the same time, the performance of goalkeeper Martinez impressed everyone. Martinez is the best goalkeeper of this World Cup. I am very happy that Argentina are champions. Because I wanted Messi to be world champion at least once.

That was really an unforgettable world cup and the most exciting one since they scored the same until the last minute and resulted in shooting penalties in which Argentina won. France was the favorite to win the Final but with top plays and defense coming from the adjustment of how Argentina played, they managed to hold them to 3 points. Congratulations to Argentina and the other teams below them, they fought really hard and they deserved to be congratulated as well.
