Doha: Argentina Vs France… Lionel Messi Vs Kylian Mbappé… King vs new heir to the throne. The storytellers for the FIFA World Cup soccer finals can only dream of a bigger and better final storyline. Described as the best player of his generation, Lionel Messi faces the star who is expected to dominate football in the near future. And Lucille’s iconic stadium will witness a clash with two other Paris Saint-Germain teammates.
At the same time, the comparisons between these stars and the debates about the stars are getting closer and closer between the ranks, with only hours left for the last digit to be declared the kings of world football. Messi’s aim is to prove that the world title is not out of reach in the latest leg of his international football career, equaling the one won by Kylian as a teenager four years ago.
Winning the world title is something Mbappe has never been afraid to admit he wants to achieve. Mbappe has also previously spoken of his determination to lead a new generation. Mbappe also sent a message to Lionel Messi that time is up in front of him.
In an interview with the New York Times in September of this year, the actor expressed his hope of winning the Ballon d’Or. ‘I dream everything. I have no borders. Of course, as you say, it’s a new generation. And, Ronaldo, Messi, you will stop. We have to find someone else. A new person’ – clarified Mbappé.
It’s hard to believe Sunday’s final won’t be the moment Killianer’s big dream comes to life. On the other hand, Lionel Messi also agrees that Mbappe is the best man to fill the void when his career comes to an end. Although Messi really doesn’t want that moment to come, he believes in the excellence of his teammate.
‘Kilian is a different player. “He is a great player who is very strong, very fast and scores a lot of goals all at once,” Messi said of Mbappe earlier this year. A complete player. He’s proved it for years. “He will certainly be one of the best in the years to come,” continued Messi.
Mbappe has a great opportunity to make that great ambition a reality, sending a clear message that Messi’s career is coming to an end and the world of football is looking for someone new.
