CANCEL your Sunday afternoon plans football lovers as Argentina are set to take on France in a mouth-watering World Cup final clash – and it’s not to be missed!
Croatia fell victim to a Lionel Messi masterclass in Tuesday’s dominant semi-final encounter.
The Argentinian legend opened up the scoring with a expertly-taken penalty, and went on a mesmerising run before setting up Julian Alvarez for their third on the night.
But things will certainly be tougher for the little magician as he will be taking on a French side that managed to stop high-flying Morocco in their semi-final.
Messi has created a thrilling final chapter to his international career and the magician will arguably go down as the greatest footballer EVER should he replicate what Diego Maradona did in 1986.
However, a win for Les Bleus would see them become the first nation in 60 years to achieve successive World Cup triumphs.
