Argentina is in the final of the World Cup. In the semi-final match in Qatar, the Argentine men defeated Croatia 3-0.
The Argentines had started with only two offensive players: Superstar Lionel Messi and Julián Álvarez. Messi was also the one who started the scoring streak for the Argentines, scoring on a penalty kick in the 34th minute. Messi has now scored eleven goals in World Cups. It will be his last World Cup.
