This is certainly the last chance for Lionel Messi to win a World Cup.
And for a whole people to see their hero bring home a trophy that has eluded them since 1986.
The Albiceleste avoided the worst in the first round by qualifying despite a humiliating defeat against Saudi Arabia to launch their World Cup.
Since then, the wait has been crazy and the Pulga knows it well.
But in case he has incredible amnesia, a video posted this Thursday on the official account of the Argentine selection is there to remind him that he is on a mission.
#Qatar2022 Llegó diciembre y arranca un mes mágico 🎄✨
Un mes de abrazos, afecto y union.
Un mes donde estamos #TodosJuntos 🙌 detrás de un mismo deseo.

Number 10 is none other than Santa Claus in this film where images of Maradona and even Pope Francis, also from Argentina, appear.
Messi is therefore responsible for giving his people the greatest gift, the World Cup.
Just that.
His mission continues this Friday evening against the Netherlands before a possible semi-final against his best enemy, Brazil.
To finish, we hope, with a final against France.
Santa Claus still has his work cut out for him.
