All World Cup Finals Since 1998 

And to cap all that off, it was Messi's last opportunity to win the World Cup...and the trophy was almost snatched away from him at the death!

Exactly, you're right about everything, that save was too epic

similarities to casillas' save of Robben in 2010

And he took 3 goals in finals from the same player, first one in history 😂 And his statistic wasnt even in top 10,and he acting like a clown with reward, mocking the player who is best young player in last WC, golden boot in this one. He is a disgrace for football.

@@DagaSaga-- mas respeto al actual campeon del mundo ⭐⭐⭐😘

Most important save

Unreal, when watching live I didn’t realize how great of a save it was and how close it was to being in. The slow mo shows how amazing it truly was. Bles dibou

I can't argue against that.🤷

The technic of Martinez to never swing his head away to look at the shot, his reaction in 0,1 second to extend his leg where the ball was going at 100km/h or more and considering the context make it the best of all times without a doubt.

same as Casillas against Robben

My favourite is 2002

France never do well in PSO 😢.

2022 min90 - pen make me heart attack

My favorite is 2022

France is all over the world cup

Martinez I’m not sure but Buffon and Casillas are 🐐

​​​​​​@@Imagine-Amy Martinez was scored 3 times before the shootouts, but the 1st and 3rd were penalties (and the 3rd one was unearned, to be honest) and goalkeepers are expected to get goaled most of the time on penalties, even him who has earned a reputation for being good at them. Also, Mbappe is an excellent penalty shooter. As for France's 2nd goal, it was an amazing shoot, out of an incredible play by france. But so was the last play against Kolo Muani, which he miraculously stopped, earning us the tie. He had no business stopping either of those, but he stopped one regardless Then in the penalty shootouts, he did his job, as usual: He stopped one, once again securing us the victory Overall, he did an amazing job, even though the number of goals may make one think otherwise at first.

Martinez isn't unsung lots of people are talking abt Martinez

Yeah that could be a historic mistake ... The French could not stand a chance before 76th minute... The match could have ended in 90 minutes.

It’s because the French changed players and tactic.

@@msch7620 Nah France started the second half same way they ended the first, which was really bad, the only substitute player who impacted the game was Coman but that was also after the gifted penalty from Otamendi which gave France courage to try till the end. If Otamendi didn't make that mistake or if Di Maria was still on the pitch to give balance to Argentina the game would've ended in 90 minutes. But these are just ifs, I'm just grateful I could witness such an extraordinary finale.

@@nogankericky6640 Yeah scaloni created the best possible tactics. Messi managing the midfield and creating chances, Di Maria, Alvarez and MC Alistair is on finishing line and De Paul targeted Griezmann and Embappe.... Experts saying this arrangement had a power to kill the best possible team and best utilisation of Messi. But after replacing Di Maria the whole team got into a defensive mode. And as usual Otamendi messed up ...

@@anirbanchakraborty3081 tbf, brazil didn't get into defensive mode when they were winning and thats why they got eliminated against croatia. But Di maria was a great player on the pitch

@@spursfan7134 it was lol. Scored fair and square

@@Evanxbdlt "fair and square" 🤓🤓🤓🤓

And it was mere minutes after the penalty. We as fans got one-two punched, we went from winning to losing in the blink of an eye. It felt unfair, but only in the sense that all Arg's hard work dominating France for 70 minutes was rendered void in an instant. It's impressive our team's confidence did not falter after that. Now, spurs fan may have been thinking about France's third goal instead: an undeserved penalty because the first player to touch the ball with their hand in that play was actually a french, but it was missed by the referee team

​@@spursfan7134 I can understand why you say undeserved, but it's not Mbappe's fault our defense was shook after their first goal. It happens a lot in this sport since a percentage of it is mental. I'm just glad that second one didn't knock Argentina out morale-wise and that they kept on fighting til the end. What a match. Doubt I'll ever see anything like it again in my lifetime. We're lucky.

If Zidane hit that header or he didn't get that red card, France would've probably won and given him two World Cup titles. The headbutt was legendary tho

@@EezoTheChezo the headbutt was at the very end of the game. That was not a game changer for france.

@@isaacA38 It absolutely was a game changer. Morale is big part of the game and seeing your captain and arguably best player get sent off in what was his last world cup is going to cause your morale to take a hit. Especially going into penalties when you know he has already got one past that keeper.

@@0parko9 Not really. Two minutes left, i doubt france would have scored. Plus France always sucked at pentalies, unlike italy. And only tresequet missed (almost got in). Besides all this, italy won no matter what people try to make up to claim france deserved it more. France has one of the worst mentalities out of all the world champions. France won the cup twice sure, but against who? Croatia? And a completly morally shocked brazil? As soon as a real challenge comes up, france lost. 2006 against italy, 2016 against portugal, 2022 against argentina.
