Argentina and French they will face each other in the final World Cup 2022. Duel Argentina versus France will be held at Lusail Stadium, Sunday (12/18/2022) evening WIB.
All eyes were on Messi and Mbappe. Especially for Messi, this World Cup final is his last chance to win the trophy he has always dreamed of.
The two players were also competing for the Golden Boot or Golden Boot. Messi and Mbappe top the 2022 World Cup top scorer list with five goals.
However, Wenger believes the heroes of the 2022 World Cup final might not even be the two players, considering the burden they carry. Wenger actually highlighted Olivier Giroud and Giuliano Alvarez.
Giroud and Alvarez both scored four goals in Qatar. Wenger believes they can make a difference.
“Obviously these two players are under pressure to do something special in the final,” Wenger said Evening standard.
“This is Mbappe in the French squad and Messi, obviously more than ever, to bring something special to Argentina.”
“Both teams also showed what the tournament is like. The two players who have been very influential and important in both teams were Giroud, who was not supposed to be there at the start of the tournament, and on the other was Alvarez, who He also confirmed his position during the tournament”.
“They’ve both been very, very influential and will definitely have a big role, but they probably didn’t expect to have a role there at the start of the competition,” Wenger said.
