As a veteran powerhouse in South America, Argentina has left countless heart-warming moments in the history of the World Cup. This year, Pampas Eagle ushered in the 18th World Cup journey and once again became the focus of fans around the world. Not only because the team is in good shape, but more importantly, this will be the curtain call performance of Messi at the World Cup. In the last World Cup of this person's career, Messi and Argentina have only one goal, that is to lift the Hercules Cup !
As long as you run on the field, any World Cup can actually be regarded as a new starting point. On November 11, Beijing time, the 26-man roster for the Argentina team for this World Cup was officially released. The 35-year-old Messi successfully led the way. The strongest bodyguard De Paul , Lautaro Martinez , Dybala , Di Maria and others were selected as expected.
A few years ago, the Argentine team also fell into a small slump, with a poor record in competitions and a lack of talents in many positions. But now, Scaloni's Argentina team is undefeated in 35 games in all competitions, and the team cohesion and morale are admirable. It is precisely because of this that the Argentine team was able to defeat the Brazil team, which is regarded as the number one favorite to win the World Cup, in the 2021 Copa America final, and Messi also successfully ended the national team's career without a championship.
This Argentine team no longer relies too much on Messi's individual performance as it once did, but has played a strong teamwork ability with Messi as the core. The players headed by DePaul in the array are willing to fight for the team leader Messi, and even more for the blue and white shirt of the Pampas Eagles.
In this World Cup, Argentina was placed in Group C and was regarded as the favorite team to win the championship early, not only because of Messi and the excellent overall condition, but also because it is no pressure to qualify as the third-ranked team in the world. Saudi team , Mexico team and Poland team, enter the 16 strong and must win.
More than a month ago, Messi personally confirmed in an interview: " This is my last World Cup , sure it is." For fans, it is a news that is both embarrassing and not surprising. Although Messi still has a very good level, he is no longer young at the age of 35 this year, and the failure to win the World Cup is the only regret in his brilliant career honor book.
8 years ago, Messi and Argentina won the runner-up in the 2014 Brazil World Cup , which was very close to the Hercules Cup but finally missed it. Eight years later, Messi, who has entered the twilight of his career, is about to compete in the World Cup for the fifth time, and staged his last dance in the World Cup for the Pampas Eagles to win the championship.
Looking back 36 years ago, 1986 World Cup in Mexico , Maradona successfully led the Argentina team to win the championship. In the upcoming last World Cup journey, can Messi realize his dream and win the Hercules Cup for the Pampas Eagles after 36 years?
