DOHA, Qatar – Lionel Messi rekindled hope for his team at the Qatar 2022 World Cup on Saturday when he led Argentina to a to 2-0 victory against Mexico to keep hope alive.
A loss against Mexico would have ended the stay of Messi and his lovely team in the United Arab Emirates. Armed with this reality, Argentina approached the game with all seriousness, trying as much as possible to ward off attacks from the beginning.
