Congratulations Argentina!! This match was one filled with rollercoasters of emotions. Best final ever. Well played.
I started watching soccer in 2008 because of Ronaldo. I followed his career and rivalry with Messi and always loved the goat debate. After Messi's World Cup victory, it's time to concede & acknowledge Messi as the goat.

I managed to escape a heart attack multiple times in this freaking game. Glad Messi & ARG won but FRA did well also!
Being a Ronaldo fan, I have to humbly submit to the fact that the GOAT title goes to Messi. It hurts to admit that but truth can be hurtful at times. On an ending note, I will say that Mbappe had a spectacular game today and will hopefully have a bright future.

It's incredible to think that after his four final losses for Argentina, he's now been part of a side that has won three finals in a row since 2020. I really thought he was just cursed with bad luck at international level before Argentina won the Copa America in Brazil. As someone who's watched him since his debut for Barca, it's so pleasing to see him finish his career with those achievements, especially a world cup. To do that between the age of 33-35 just makes his legacy even more incredible.

I saw Pele with the Cosmos at Yankee stadium. For his age he was still amazing. He could jump so high and used his leverage, skill, low center of gravity to be strong a no 9 (7). Maradona was constantly kicked but was so fast, skillful and amazing. After Owen and Shearer plus other Continental stars were getting hurt due to kicking brutally the owners/executives decided to change the game. Leo is the best of his time but I still have him equal with Pele and Maradona. I did see Messi play in Giants stadium for the Final of Copa Centanario and I saw him train with MSN…so amazing and Neymar was on 🔥 in that session. The big 3 is Messi Pele Maradona
Actually, I never understand why the medias ve created that goat conversation between Messi vs CR7 Cuz anyone who understands football will say that Messi is undoubtedly the best (not only Cristiano) but the best of all time!!! I'm sure, that we'll never see anything like Messi again! Once in a lifetime! The maestro, a genius, a magician, an alien!!!! The GOAT F-O-R-E-V-E-R 🐐👽🏆🇦🇷
Sincere thanks to Scaloni to bring this joy to all of us. He brought Messi to this level today. God bless Messi, Scaloni and Golie.
Thank you Lionel Messi for bringing me so much joy for the last 15 years of my life. I love you. I really do.
They were all great players but Messi is THE GREATEST and to my mind he will stay . FOREVER
Never been any doubt Messi not just for his goals for his incredible passing range, link up play and over 370 assists. He is a magician ,has the X factor that others don't.
Wow that final really took years off my life. The up and down of emotions, and I'm usually pretty calm but by the end of 120th minute I was having horrible Higuain flashbacks and was ready to go bite into Lautaro, but DIBU!!! came through in the end

Luckily julian activity, same with enzo and mccalister's possession was most pleasant surpriseand allowed messi to drift and stay dangerous in final third. De paul and paredes warrior efforts molina, romero were great, otamendi always has moments but overall solid same with acuna.

I was sad for Alvarez because he worked really hard as always in that final but didn't get a chance, only for Martinez to waste so many.

I am united fan and been a Ronaldo fan since I followed united in 2007. But when I watched Messi especially in 2010 I knew he was the greatest player to ever walk the earth. There is no player like him and there never will be. But there will be more players like Ronaldo.
I've always been a CR7 fan.. but I'm going to be honest.. with Messi winning the world cup it just feels like the Convo is over.. it just feels like everything that Ronaldo has done and accomplished is insignificant.. there's no way he can stand next to Messi now.. Messi has finally won the world cup
Ronaldo is in pains right now and he's is feeling real depression right now concerning the issues he has with Man united combined with the fact that they were knocked out of the WC..He now sees that Portugal doesn't depend on him again.Messi has shown that he's the best in the world.apart from scoring goals Messi is a playmaker,his presence makes you wanna watch..infact he's the G.O.A.T

DiMaria scored in the Olympic Final, Finalissimo, scored the 0-1 goal against Brazil in Copa America Final which decided it for Argentina and created the first two goals of this World Cup Final. And yet nobody rarely talks about this absolute HUGE player. Amazing.
Aside from being the most gifted player ever seen, Messi is also a true team man, willing to adapt to the role required of him. If somebody else is better placed to get the goals and glory, he'll gladly provide for them. Meanwhile, there's Ronaldo more concerned with scamming group stage goals he never even touches, his hangers on raging that a 37 year-old isn't having everything built around him anymore.

And special mention to Mbappe as well for part of the history as well.

This guy talking about Maradona, has he ever seen guys trying to take down Messi? They tried everything but it didn't work. Rio Ferdinand said that he couldn't even get close to Messi. Meaning that he wanted to be physical with him but he didn't get the chance because Messi was too skilled and too fast. It was not that defenders didn't try hard enough to take Messi down, it's just that they couldn't. Defenders in the Messi era have even more reason to take him down as there has been too much talk about Messi for so long. Yet Messi was too much to handle. Sorry but as great as Maradona is, he's still just a little behind Messi.
