The legendary English striker Gary Lineker praised the confrontation between the main stars of the current World Cup 2022 - Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe.
Gary Lineker“If Mbappe doesn’t do a hat-trick or something special in the final, then I think Messi will get the Ballon d’Or of the 2022 World Cup. As for the Golden Boot, everything is exactly the same - one goal can decide the fight either in favor of Messi or in favor of Mbappe.
I think Messi will be recognized as the best player of the tournament, no matter what happens, given the stability of his performances. Mbappe put on some great matches, gave us some magical moments, but not nearly as many as Messi, and certainly not in the quarter-finals or semi-finals.
Mbappe showed some magic in the moment with the second goal against Morocco, and Messi did incredible things throughout the tournament, ”said Lineker.
