The most impressive thing about the 2014 World Cup in Brazil was not Germany's victory, but the photo of Messi looking at the "Hercules Cup" so close and yet so far away from the championship trophy. Will Messi and Argentina get what they want in 2022?

So close to the championship trophy, yet so far away. Will Messi and Argentina get what they want in 2022?

I think this year's Messi has the best personal performance in the five World Cups he has participated in. He defeated the Netherlands and defeated and Croatia . Messi performed well, especially the third goal against Croatia. It is hard to believe that this is a 35-year-old player.

The match between Argentina and Croatia was very dramatic. In the first half, Croatia had the advantage and allowed Argentina to score first. Regardless of whether a penalty kick should be awarded (personally, I think the penalty kick is controversial). Argentina's second goal was extremely dramatic. No. 9 Alvarez stumbled all the way and "bumped" the ball into the goal when both Croatian defenders were kicked.

After watching this goal, I feel that Argentina is stable. The "ball luck" is on Argentina's side. The chance of two top defenders making consecutive mistakes is too small. In addition, the first controversial penalty can only show that Argentina is very lucky this year. Everyone hopes that Messi can lead the Argentina team to win the championship.

The title "Metro Club King" is highly anticipated, but a considerable number of fans still do not recognize it. The main reason is that Messi did not lead Argentina to win the World Cup, and one of the most important trophies is missing from Messi's honor list.

Maradona became a god in the 1986 World Cup, single-handedly leading Argentina to the top of the world.

As the most legendary No. 10 player in Argentina after Maradona, Messi has shouldered the expectations of the entire country of Argentina and fans around the world. They hope that Messi can become the third generation of "ball king" after Pele and Maradona.

This year's World Cup is Messi's best and last chance to clear his name. Cristiano Ronaldo has already broken his promise for the World Cup final, now it’s up to Messi.

Rather than saying that the whole world is hoping for Messi to win the championship, it is better to say that everyone is looking forward to the birth of a new "ball king". Come on Argentina! Come on Messi! Let us look forward to the first "ball king" in the new century.
