2022 Qatar World Cup, there are players ahead of the last challenge in this desperate competition.

With this World Cup as the last stage, who will be the 'Last Dance' for the match in Qatar?

The Ballon d'Or is an award given only once a year to the best soccer player in the world.

This is Lionel Messi, a man who has won the award seven times, which is difficult to receive even once.

The number of trophies he has lifted since his professional debut is uncountable.

But what he lacks is the World Cup trophy.



Messi's influence may not be as strong as he was in his prime.

He forms a triangle formation with Neymar-Mbappe in the club team PSG, showing off his peak attack power.

In the 2022-2023 season, he became the first player among the top 5 European leagues to join the '10 (goal)-10 (assist) club'.



Argentina's momentum is also scary.

They won the 2021 Copa America by defeating Brazil, and won the World Cup ticket after finishing the South American final qualifier undefeated.

And at the center of it all was Messi.

Messi in top form and Team Argentina on the rise.

This is why Messi's last dance, which has everything except the World Cup trophy, is expected.



We will also introduce the match schedule of Group C, where Messi's country Argentina belongs, and Messi's famous quote.
