The path of the Argentine team in the World Cup in Qatar did not start as expected by Lionel Messi and company. The Albiceleste lost to Saudi Arabia in a surprising way and it seemed that everything was collapsing for the American champion. However, La Scaloneta straightened the course and is now looking for the title. Now, Hervé Renard, coach of the Arabs, referred to the captain of the national team.
The strategist of the Asian team, who almost caused a tragedy in the country, talked about what will be the final between Argentina and France, to be played this December 18, at the Lusail stadium. The experienced helmsman highlighted Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé, who are the main stars of each team and share a dressing room at PSG.

"Messi seems to be 25 years old and competing for the Golden Boot of the World Cup against a very good Mbappé makes him incredible", highlighted the DT, who did not dare to predict a possible winner.
Argentina wants to add its third star in history:
The Argentine team will play its sixth final in history. They lost the 1930 edition against Uruguay and managed to win the Netherlands in 1978 and Germany in 1986. However, against the Teutons they fell in 1990 and 2014. The team led by Lionel Scaloni hopes to end the 36-year streak without reaching the desired trophy.
