Messi vs Mbappe World Cup 2022

The whole world waited for Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi to be in the Finale of the FIFA World Cup 2022. It would be a treat to the football fans. These two goats have divided the football world into two parts by their immense talent and skills. Sadly, Cristiano Ronaldo is out of the World Cup. And the finale is between Argentina vs France. Lionel Messi vs Kylian Mbappe.

Lionel Messi has been the top Soccer player for nearly a decade now and he’s still holding strong by winning and reaching the final at FIFA World Cup. Messi is retiring after the World Cup, which makes it sad for fans worldwide.

Both players are expected to be the best of their generations. And it will be a treat for the eyes to watch both players. France has already listed the trophy of the World Cup in the year 2018. And if they win this will be their back-to-back second World Cup title.

But it’s a final chance for Messi to win the trophy. Mbappe said: “I think I’m about to win the Ballon d’Or” speaking in an interview with the New York Times, in September.

It’s time to see if Mbappe’s vision comes true in the FIFA World Cup 2022. Messi and Mbappe are not only locked in for the Golden Boot race but are also strong contenders to win as well. Mbappe, having scored five goals, has been brilliant in the game.

As France made their win in the 2018 World Cup by defeating Argentina in round 16 itself. It’s been the same situation once again for both teams. Back then Kylian Mbappe was a teenager representing himself in the World Cup. He has already been compared to Brazilian Pele, as Pele also scored in a World Cup final before turning 20.

But at this World Cup Messi has younger players as compared to the 2018 World Cup. Messi might hold on to that result to fuel his energy to beat France in this world cup. 

Kylian Mbappe has proved to himself that he is the best player of this World Cup but the team’s strength doesn’t come only from him as football is a team event.

France is in the World Cup without their three very best players N’Golo Kante who didn’t allow Messi to breathe throughout 90 minutes, Paul Pogba was also among the best players of the 2018 World Cup. Karim Benzema couldn’t be part of the team as he got injured right before the tournament.

So the question here is who will win the Golden Boot when Mbappe and the Goat Leo Messi are tied in the number of goals.
