In a nerve-wracking FIFA world cup finals, Argentina pips France to become the winner of the tournament. Across 120 minutes, no winner could be decided as Argentina and France leveled with 3-3. The extra time couldn’t provide the winner and this led to the penalty shootout.

Argentina won the shootout 4-2 which means they win their third World Cup title. France forward Kylian Mbappé did all he could. He scored a hat trick which went in vain. Lionel Messi‘s team was better on the night.

Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez wins the golden glove award. Lionel Messi who scored 7 goals was adjudged the player of the tournament and he won the golden ball. Kylian Mbappé with the highest number of goals this tournament, 8, won the golden boot award.

The icing on the cake for Argentina is that the 35-year-old legend Lionel Messi said to continue to play for his national team.
