A number of similar moments between the 1986 World Cup and today’s situation have become a signal for Lionel Messi and the champion of the Argentina national team World Cup 2022 in Qatar.
The 2022 World Cup will be the last World Cup for Messi. For this, La Pulga also has a great desire to win the World Cup for the first and last time.
In 2021 Lionel Messi broke the “curse” of not being able to deliver a trophy to the Albiceleste by winning the 2021 Copa America.
After winning the Copa America, the only world trophy Messi hasn’t been able to offer in his career. For this reason, the 2022 World Cup is said to be Messi’s last chance.
Messi’s chances of winning the 2022 World Cup are open, especially with Argentina’s success in advancing to the quarter-finals after conquering Australia.
Quoted from Sports biblea number of signs that Messi may win the 2022 World Cup appear to be linked to the achievements of the late Diego Maradona when he won the 1986 World Cup.
In the 1986 World Cup, Morocco won Group B ahead of England and Poland. At the 2022 World Cup, Morocco again won their group, in Group F by beating Croatia.
Not only on Moroccan points. The Belgium national team, which is in third place in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup, could also be a “supporting factor” for Messi’s success this year.
At the 2022 World Cup, Belgium failed to make it to the knockout stages after finishing third in Group F after being unable to match Morocco and Croatia.
In three games Belgium celebrated four points thanks to a 1-0 victory over Canada, a 0-2 defeat by Morocco and a 0-0 draw against Croatia.
At the 1986 World Cup, Belgium also finished third in Group B. However, at that time the tournament was still using the better third-place format and Belgium could still appear in the knockout stages.
The latest signal that could ‘pave the way’ for Messi to win the 2022 World Cup is the Canadian national team, bottom of the group stage.
Canada is in fourth place in Group F of the 2022 World Cup without picking up any points. Meanwhile, at the 1986 World Cup, Canada was also in fourth place in Group C without earning any points in three games.
Three signs that correspond to the situation at the 1986 World Cup and the 2022 World Cup are considered the signal for Lionel Messi to win the World Cup this year.
