Messi leads the tournament with five goals and three assists. The French superstar is the current favorite to win the Golden Boot award, given to the tournament leader in goals. Not surprisingly, the finalists have the tournament co-leaders in goals (five), Messi and Mbappé. France eliminated Argentina in the round of 16 in 2018, and La Albiceleste ('white and sky blue') won the other meetings in 19. This will be the fourth meeting between the countries in the World Cup.
