One of the duels that caused sparks in the final of the World Cup Qatar 2022 Come in Argentina vs. France was that of ‘Cuti’ Romero vs. kylian mbappe. Both players collided practically throughout the game and, after the final whistle, it was the Argentine who ended up celebrating.
Along these lines, the media consulted the Tottenham defender for that cross he had with ‘Donatello’ on the pitch. What did Cristian Romero answer?
“We had the game under control, but players like Mbappé appear at important moments. He appeared and scored 3 goals. But he’s done, we’ll bring the Cup home and let him wait 4 more years”.
Summary of Argentina vs. France
Lionel Messi now sits at the table of the world champions along with Pelé and Diego Maradona: the ’10’ led Argentina to the long-suffering conquest of their third world title this Sunday in Doha, where they defeated on penalties (4-2, following a 3-3 draw) to defending champions France.
At the age of 35, the Argentine star can say goodbye calmly to his World Cup journeys (he participated in the last five): he scored the first, from a penalty (23), and the third (in extra time, 109) in the packed stadium of Lusail and participated in the second, by Ángel Di María (36).
Although the crown breaks with an albiceleste drought of 36 years without lifting the World Cup, before they did it with Mario Kempes in 1978 and Diego Maradona in 1986, the conquest has as a special protagonist a guy who saw how Germany snatched it from the noses in Brazil-2014.
With Di María and Messi as the only survivors of the debacle at the Maracana, the group formed by Lionel Scaloni knew how to close ranks around what thousands consider the best player in history, a title resisted by many precisely because he did not have in his hands what which he raised this Sunday before 88,966 spectators.
And he did it against the France of one of his potential heirs and PSG teammate, Kylian Mbappé, who took the game to penalties by scoring a hat-trick (80, 81 and 118, two of them from penalties) and finishing as tournament scorer, with eight goals.
