Messi is set for the golden ball but that will feel like no big consolation if Argentina don't win the trophy. Have never felt more nervous about a game. It feels even more intense than the 2014 final, knowing this is his last chance to win it.

At last an opinion that has complete sense. I know tensions are high but some are a little too nuts. It's a football game remember and you'll have forgotten 90% of the result whoever you support in a couple of weeks when reality sets in. This being a final can go any way period. You have two very experienced teams and tensions could fly high. You can't even discard a red card which would be a pity. Anyway I'd like the best team on the pitch to win. Not because of possession because you can have that by defending but through the chances they get and the tactics which will be different for both teams.

Argentina are not that big of a side without Messi, just imagine Messi not being in this side and see how far they can get. If he doesn’t score he will always create chances for others due to his brilliance. France on the other hand are a cohesive team but sometimes they tend to switch off and be luck luster. For them being in the finals with all those injuries says a lot about their mentality. I feel France might edge this through dead ball situations ie corners or free kicks because they’ve got taller players overall, I might be wrong..But there’s also the Messi effect

This Mbappe story about not tracking back is overblown. I’ve liked this feature of the French team since the start of the group stage since he conserves so much energy throughout the game that there is basically no difference between his runs at 77’ than at 15’. That, and the attention he receives throughout games by the opposition are bonuses. And the result is that France has been the most consistent team in the tourney at manufacturing goals in open play. Given that they have other players that can take up the slack (which not a lot of teams have), it is a reasonable strategy and has worked for the better here. But no, these old school footballers view anything like that to signal arrogance, etc. Be old school if you want to, but results are the most important thing in any sport, and it’s been working for France. We’ll see if it works once again tomorrow

Deschamps seems to be happy playing Mbappe the way he does, and France have made the final, so why change now? Just because some pundits think Mbappe should be doing more defensively? These pundits aren't in charge of the French team. Deschamps is and he is in a much better position to decide what is best for France than any pundit. Also, when the pundits call it wrong, they'll still be pundits, no matter how often they get it wrong. If Deschamps makes as many bad calls as the pundits, he'll be out of a job.

ESPN are criticizing Mbappe for not defending while this is a tactical decision by the manager. This shouldn't be an issue but they keep coming back to this. Very strange. Like they know it better than the manager who has a 2018 WC under his belt. Laughable.

It’s been long with all the heartbreaks with Argentina. But still kept hoping and supporting. I was born in 80 Bangladesh. In 86 I was too small to understand anything. First time I watched football in 90s wc in black and white tv, when I was 10. Fell in love with Maradona and Argentina. Witnessed how referee made them loose in the final. Since then all the heartbreaks. In 94 Maradona scandal. 98 Hyped star (Ortega) doing stupid things getting red card and the. Bargcamps famous goal. Then Batistuta/Aimar/Saviola all failed in 2002/2006/2010. In 2006 stupid coach didn’t play Messi vs Germany. In 2014 reached final somehow. Had chances too vs very strong Germany. But higuain forgot how to play football. 2018 was a disastrous coach and team. Expectedly went out. Among them probably 2006 Arg had a very strong team. But coach messed it after going 1-0 up vs Germany. Messi didn’t play. All other years Messi kept playing well but luck and team mates or coaches let him down. But he was always blamed. Whenever I watch football a sadness comes inside. I even stopped watching club league matches or champions leagues too after that 2014 defeat I. The final. Most hurts me Messi’s sad face. Here they are again. One last chance. Finally they have a team which has a very good team work. Thanks to Scaloni. Finally we can clearly see Messi is playing with happiness and enjoying. Of course against France it won’t be easy. But it’s now or never. There won’t be any Messi again. I’m proud what they have accomplished so far. But can’t see Messi to be sad for rest of his life. He doesn’t deserve sadness after giving a lot to football world. He deserves this ultimate prize. I want him to smile. Hope all players give their everything they have. Vamos Argentina. Let’s do it this time.

referee didn't make them lose in 1990 they were clearly the inferior team and shouldn't have even beaten Italy in the semis, Italy dominated. And Argentina only won in 86 because of the Hand of God. mess is GOAT tho

Canadian here, this WORLD 🌎 cup is Argentinas 🇦🇷. Messi like Maradona are the legendary footballers.
Kylian is there to attack, create and score goals. The defence is good enough on their own. End of

Ideally, defending responsibility has to be shared equally between Dembele and Mbappé but because of Dembele's lack of end product, Dembele has to restrain himself on the wing and Mbappe has to remain forward for the counterattack.

Dembele has said he thinks Messi should win. Good for him. But he won't play with heart.

It’s tactical! He is keeping pressure on the defense cause he’s a pace threat!! Unless you know it for a fact you’re simply speculating!! 😊

France (Mbappe) should continue with their strategy which has delivered goods till now. They are world champions for a reason.
I can’t wait for this final - get your popcorn, croissant or alfajor ready ♥️
I think Messi will try solo dribbles near the box trying to cement his position as best ever, win a few free kicks and may score one of them, changing the momentum of the game with crowd chanting Messi, Messi winning the man of itmatch, world cup, golden ball and golden boot. France has weak link in defense on the left, and Mbappe doesn't help with defense. Messi can destabilize their defense on left and make a few key passes for Alvarez. I think France will find it much harder.
Regardless of what ever happens in the Final Lionel Messi is the Undisputed GOAT of Football.

France win has nothing to do with boring. To be fair, they got lucky to be in the final. France lost to Tunisia, got outplayed by England and Morocco. Argentina is way better than those 3 teams.
