A memorable match, a final with all possible ingredients: goals, impeccable plays (Di María’s goal, for example), decisive saves (that of Dibu Martínez, who needed nothing to close the match) and an unbearable drama who had a happy result on penalties. That was the match that crowned the Argentina national team as world champions at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Just over 120 minutes to collect it and if we don’t get to keep it in a device, at least to see it again without much suffering. In TyC Sport, They will repeat the match in its entirety, already with the national team in Argentina, where they are expected on the night of this Monday 19 December.
So far, only TyC is aware of the replay, although it is likely that TV publishes -which also owns the rights to the match- schedule it sooner or later.
From the moment Montiel kicked the penalty that made the team world champions and obtained his well-deserved third star, we feel that sensation, today certainty, that it was the most beautiful final in history and the main protagonist was revealed to be Argentina.
A final that will remain in the memory
Indeed, in that coming and going the result was an exciting football battle between two great teams. Even if, as all the commentators agreed, Argentina played the best 75 minutes of the World Cup against France, the French didn’t give up and the strength of Mbappé, their star player, proved it.
But I was Lionel Messi with his smart deployment and special status to lead the team; the visuals were revealing of the quality of play Argentina exhibited with a scheme that overwhelmed the French side who could not find a way to get their strategy together. Coach Deschamps himself said: “Argentina were playing in the world final and our team was not.”
Tyc Sports will repeat the unforgettable final a 0 and 16.30 on Tuesday 20 December.
We will be able to relive that impotence that France crossed more coldly in the replay of the match; The heat of the game and of the moment can make us overlook match situations which, in view of the result, we will now enjoy with the serenity of certainty.
Emotion close up
If we pay attention to the emotions, it was a game where the teams went through a flow. Faces of immense joy, bewilderment, concern and frustration were registered throughout the match and the paradox is that these expressions appeared on both teams. It remains to be remembered, at least recently, when Mbappé converted the second penalty and Di María, already on the bench, covered his face with an orange bib.
What is sometimes interesting in the repetitions of these historical encounters, almost like a chronicle, is reconnect with those emotions which aroused in this case the comedies.
It brings back to our memory all that vertigo that we certainly went through in the last minutes of the game and not to mention what was the dramatic 30-minute extension and that play that lacked nothing and that stopped the heart of the country for a moment, but Dibu Martínez was there, the giant goalkeeper who once again, as with Australia, saved the Argentine goal.
Losing would have been a real injustice.
A match in which Argentina was always ahead in results and repetition, in a night owl time, relive the joy of the players, the tears of Scaloni and Messi, the best player in the world, who lifted the trophy deservedly won for the Argentina team and what time is everyone’s.
