Watch: Messi’s magic gives Argentina a 3rd goal in World Cup final

Messi weaved his magic to put Argentina ahead again in extra-time after France had made a spectacular comeback into the game with Mbappe scoring twice in the 80th and 81st minutes to level the game at 2-2.  Messi struck home on a rebound from close range to score the 3rd goal for his team after France goalkeeper Hugo Lloris had brought off a brilliant save from Lautoro Martinez’s shot.

In the rollercoaster match, France hero Mbappe then scored again to take the game into a penalty shootout which eventually Argentina won 4-2 to clinch the FIFA World Cup title.
