From almost missing the World Cup to being champion, the role of Paulo Dybala with Messi

Historical. Epic. Sensational. The terms are superfluous for the historic day that the world has just witnessed, which had the Argentine National Team as the protagonist. Obviously, France was also part, since a 3-3 draw in a World Cup final is not an everyday thing. In fact, it is the first time that it has happened throughout the 22 editions disputed.

It was a game that can hardly be repeated in many years, because everything really happened. The Argentine national team took the lead twice, including the first time where they managed to gain a two-goal advantage at the end of the first half. Then, already in stoppage time, Lionel Messi's feet put the albiceleste ahead 3-2, but once again Kylian Mbappé tied things up.

Things remained like this until the end of extra time, so for the third time they had to resort from the penalty spot to define a world champion. Within this framework, the one who became a hero again, a phrase immortalized by Javier Mascherano in 2014, was Dibu Martínez, who saved two penalties and allowed his team to execute more calmly.

One of those who signed up on that list and kicked was Paulo Dybala. The man from Cordoba arrived at the World Cup with just enough, since less than a month before the start of the tournament, he was injured playing for Roma. However, in a race against time, he recovered. But to the surprise of many and even being physically fit, he did not see minutes until the semifinals against Croatia.
