It is settled. On the 18th of December on the grandest stage, it will be Mbappe’s France against Messi’s Argentina for the World Cup finals at Lusail. While the defending champions, France will look to retain, Argentina will aim at winning the cup one more time since they last won it in 1986. Messi, 35, in his fifth and final World Cup and second finals appearance, will head-to-head against the young and spirited Mbappe, to fulfil his World Cup dream at Lusail.
After Morocco lost against France on Thursday, Jake Paul took to Twitter to acknowledge Morocco’s praiseworthy accomplishment. ‘The problem Child’ expressed pride in Morocco’s achievement. In addition, the 25-year-old declared that he would support Lionel Messi.

Jake Paul expects fireworks at Argentina vs. France on Sunday
Defeating Croatia with a score of 3-0, Argentina qualified for the finals to be staged on Sunday. In his mid-thirties, Messi exhibited exemplary patience, skills, and knowledge. While some have questioned the referee’s decision to allow Argentina a penalty in the 34th minute of the game, Messi’s deceiving execution of it against Livakovic, who earlier saved four penalties, nonetheless demonstrated the wisdom of a player who’s played 1000 international games.
France and Argentina is going to be fireworks. I got Messi and the La Albiceleste for the win.
Gotta recognize what Morocco accomplished as a country…for Africa, for Arabs, and for the entire Muslim world. Y’all did the world proud.
— Jake Paul (@jakepaul) December 14, 2022
Now that it is Mbappe against Messi, Jake Paul has a side to pick for Sunday. In their last World Cup encounter, France defeated Argentina with a score of 4-3 to send Messi home in the very round of 16. Since the two are about to clash again, Jake Paul expects nothing short of fireworks in the final game. “France and Argentina is going to be fireworks. I got Messi and the La Albiceleste for the win,” he said.

Mbappe, favoured by the vigour of the youth, would play the finals for the second consecutive time, accompanied by Giroud and Griezmann at Lusail. Although not for the second consecutive time, this will be Messi’s second world cup finals appearance as well. Veteran Ángel di María, the confident Emiliano Martinez, and young Julian Alvarez will stand by LM10.
The debate never tends to end. Will Messi ever match the legacy of Maradona who won the cup for their nation in 1986? The debate will go on so long as football lives and is played. However, when closely looked at, Maradona won the cup when he was 25. Similarly, Messi played in the World Cup finals when he was 27 years of age.
