The 2022 FIFAWorldCup saved the best for last. As alanshearer writes, Lionel Messi's triumphant, dramatic win over Kylian Mbappe & co. may have transcended the game — it etched itself in the sport's annals among its greatest matches.
Mbappe rallies his team as they make a comeback
Not this magnificence, not this match for the ages, not this game that took an age to reach a crescendo and which then never let up, pushing the boundaries of shock and incredulity. Not this duel in the desert between the best there ever was in Messi — there can be no disputing that now — and this fearless young pretender chasing him down.What’s that line from the movie, mouthed by Russell Crowe? “Are you not entertained?!”.
It was head-to-head between the pair of them, going at each other, fuelled and pushed on by each other, responding to and inspiring and eclipsing each other.Chatting to colleagues as we navigated Doha’s choked streets away from the stadium, the comparison we came up with was Tyson Fury being knocked down by Deontay Wilder in their boxing trilogy and somehow rising from the canvas to win.
hit pause, back to work for a quarter of its clubs in the Carabao Cup tomorrow — we’ll remember this alright. We remember history.Staggering.
