Vamos Argentina: lionel Messi finally gets his world cup!

Golden words by Messi

I dreamed it so many times, I wanted it so much that I still haven't fallen, I can't believe it......

Thank you very much to my family, to all who support me and also to all who believed in us. We demonstrate once again that Argentines when we fight together and united we are capable of achieving what we set out to do. The merit belongs to this group, which is above individualities, it is the strength of all fighting for the same dream that was also the dream of all Argentines... We did it!!!

GO ARGENTINA FUCK!!!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Match Insights

  • Argentina have won the World Cup for a third time (also 1978 and 1986), 36 years since their last triumph in 1986. Only Italy (44 years from 1938 to 1982) has ever had a longer gap between winning two World Cups.

  • Each of the last three reigning champions to reach the World Cup final failed to win that final, with France joining Argentina in 1990 and Brazil in 1998 in doing so.

  • Argentina have won more penalty shootouts than any nation in World Cup history, with this their sixth such triumph. They are the third nation to win a World Cup final shootout, after Brazil in 1994 and Italy in 2006.
