The final of the 22nd edition of the FIFA World Cup Qatar is being contested between Argentina and France today. After defeating Morocco and defeating France and Croatia, Argentina secured a place in the World Cup finals. The World Cup final between Argentina and France is seen as an interesting match.Argentina has previously won the World Cup twice in 1978 and 1986. Argentina returned home after reaching the final in 1930, 1990 and 2014. Having won the title twice, Argentina has played in five World Cup finals.

Argentina, who has reached the final for the sixth time, wants to write his name in world football by lifting the World Cup title under the leadership of captain Lionel Messi. Argentina is under pressure to win this World Cup even though it has not been decided whether Messi will play in the next World Cup due to his age. But for the title, Argentina will have to defeat former champions France.

Argentina and France

After defeating Morocco by 2-0 in the final, France is on the verge of winning the World Cup title for the second time in a row.

France, who won the World Cup in 1998 and 2018, lost to Italy in the 2006 World Cup final. France defeated Argentina and made a dream of making a record of consecutive World Cup titles.

The World Cup soccer final between Argentina and France will be played at Lucille Stadium on Sunday night at 8:45 p.m.

In the competition for the third place, Croatia won the title by defeating Morocco 2-1.

Those consecutive defeats are a deep stain on a country that has won the World Cup multiple times, comparable to Germany and second only to Brazil (five triumphs).
