Now there can be no arguments: Lionel Messi has cemented his place among the greats.
In the most dramatic, nerve-shredding way imaginable, Lionel Messi finally got his hands on the World Cup and with it cemented his place in the pantheon of soccer greats, alongside Diego Maradona and Pelé. The final was as good as soccer gets. A match for the ages with a fairytale ending. Messi and Kylian Mbappé, the game’s two superstars went toe-to-toe in arguably the greatest World Cup final in history.
Just when you think there can be no more records for him to break, Messi finds another. He is also the second-oldest player to score in a final and with this, his 26th World Cup appearance, no male player has played in as many World Cup games. His performances earned him the Golden Boot, too, the prize for the tournament’s best player.
