Before this World Cup, big players of France like, Benzema, Pogba, Kante and Ankuku got injured. Despite this, team manager Didier Deschamps built a balanced team and took it to the final of the World Cup for the second time in a row. The 36-year-old striker of the team, Oliver Girud, showed amazing header and scored 4 goals. Striker Kylian Mbappe is in the race for the Golden Boot. He has 5 goals in this World Cup.

In terms of defence, France looked a bit raw in this tournament. In the semi-finals, the team kept its first clean sheet against Morocco, which means it was the first time in this World Cup that France did not concede a goal. Argentina went to the final of the 2014 World Cup. Germany beat them 1–0 in the final. This World Cup will be a second final for Lionel Messi. In this World Cup, Argentina got defeated by Saudi Arabia in the first match. But, after this, Argentina has performed better in every match. The team is playing a better game in every match than before. Argentina achieved the team’s biggest win in this World Cup in the semi-finals. They defeated Croatia 3–0.
