The hope of France lifting the world cup back to back was jupadized the moment that Dembele fouled Angel De Maria inside the 18yard box.
The referee from Portugal was definitely left with no other option other than to point to the spot for a penalty.
This final happened to be Agentina's four consecutive penalty in four matches. As usual, Leonel Messi converted the spot kick. This dampened the French chance of defending the title.
But thank God for Kylan Mbappe who scored.a heart trick thereby dragging the match into extra time. Unfortunately the game ended in favour of the Northern American side.
Indeed it was the young lad against the Argentins. Nobody believed that the French side would recover after thrilling 2:0 nill in the first half of the encounter.
The second half was however in their favour as they talisman equalized 2:2 thereby dragging the game jnrl extra time.
Sadly even with the heart trick he scored in the extra time, it didn't guarantee them winning the cup finals.
