Argentina is currently facing Saudi Arabia for its entry into the competition! And after barely 10 minutes of play, Lionel Messi has already distinguished himself! La Pulga transformed a penalty obtained by Paredes, who was retained by the shirt. A goal that is not trivial for the Argentine genius, since it allows him to become the only player in the history of Albiceleste to score in four different World Cups (2006, 2014, 2018, and 2022). The PSG playmaker therefore overtakes legends Gabriel Batistuta and Diego Maradona, who had been scorers in three World Cups. Messi also joins four other legends who have scored in four World Cups: Cristiano Ronaldo, Miroslav Klose, Pelé and Uwe Seeler.
