Enzo Fernandez won best young player, Emiliano Martinez won best goal keeper, and hattrick hero in the final Kylian Mbappe won the Golden Boot. Was Lionel Messi offside in the build up for Argentina’s 3rd goal v France in the FIFA World Cup final? CONTROVERSY Many people believe that there were many unfair calls favoring Argentina, particularly soft penalty calls, which helped them score the goals they needed to in order to win the World Cup. Argentina won penalties in 71% of their games, 5/7. They were awarded penalties v Netherlands in the QF, Croatia in the SF, and France in the final. Many believe Messi should have been sent off in the QF, along with Parades. Fans across the board are saying the World Cup was rigged for Argentina. What do you guys think? Regardless, Messi has his hands on the prize he wanted most - the World Cup.
