Argentina will play the World Cup final in Qatar on Sunday against France, who defeated Morocco 2-0 in the second semi-final and will seek the two-time world championship. Lionel Messi’s national team against PSG teammates Kylian Mbappé’s Bleus, who will also define which of the two is the MVP of the contest. Too many toppings.
It is clear that Mbappé is the man to be taken into consideration by Scaloni and his coaching staff. The Frenchman is at an impressive level in Qatar and is, like Messi, the top scorer in the World Cup with five goals. Leo is also leading in the area of assists.

What will “fools” say!!!!!”, filmed. And before this new appearance on the networks, users got a foothold in the game…
Mbappé’s gesture when asked about Messi
After the 2-0 defeat against Morocco in the second semi-final of the tournament, the courageous French number 7 left the stadium at dawn on Qatar morning without making any public statements. But passing through the mixed zone, a must for any World Cup player, they asked him about Messi and he left an eloquent gesture: he closed his eyes and smiled without stopping.
