Argentina celebrated the third anniversary of its epic 2022 FIFA World Cup victory on Wednesday, commemorating a final considered one of the greatest matches in football history.
On December 18, 2022, Lionel Messi led the Albiceleste to a dramatic 4–2 penalty shootout win over France following a breathtaking 3–3 draw in Qatar. The triumph secured Argentina’s third World Cup title and ended a 36-year drought since Diego Maradona’s 1986 victory.
The match was a rollercoaster: Argentina led 2-0 before Kylian Mbappé scored twice to force extra time. Messi put Argentina ahead again, only for Mbappé to complete a hat-trick and send the game to penalties. Goalkeeper Emiliano MartÃnez was the shootout hero with two crucial saves.
Lionel Messi was awarded the tournament’s Golden Ball after scoring seven goals and providing three assists, cementing his legendary status.
Three years later, fans worldwide continue to relive the iconic night through viral clips, celebrating a pinnacle of football drama that brought a nation together.
