This Is Messi's World Cup

Coming into this World Cup there were plenty of storylines. The last run for Ronaldo, Modric, Messi. The redemption of Brazil. The Belgium Golden Generation trying to win. France trying to go back-to-back. Germany trying to make up for 2018. 

Yet only one (for now) remains. This is Messi's World Cup. The dude is delivering every single match. 5 goals and 3 assists so far. Not too shabby for a guy in his last World Cup. 

Now he has Argentina in a World Cup Final again. The man trying to end his international career with a World Cup trophy. Every single thing he does has been awesome. Perfect PK: 

Spinning a Croatian defender around, making him look silly before a perfect pass? No problem.

Yes, Julian Alvarez was arguably the star of this match but this is Messi's team. This is Messi's World Cup. You can see him playing with a bit of attitude. You can see him hunting for his shot and making plays. Argentina is in the World Cup final because of Messi. 

Good way to forget about them losing to Saudi Arabia to open the World Cup. Decent run if you ask me. And now we have a pretty damn near perfect Final. Either Messi vs France in a battle of giants or Messi vs the biggest Cinderella the World Cup may have ever seen. Not too bad. 

Greatest player of this era.
