This is not the first time that France goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and Messi have come face to face. Let’s see Messi’s goals that made Lloris a spectator
FIFA World Cup 2022: Hugo Lloris, France’s keeper in World Cup finals Lloris will become the goalkeeper with the most World Cup appearances (20) in the final against Argentina.
Sunday will tell if Lloris can claim the distinction of being the captain of two World Cups. Lloris, 35, has played the most international matches for France.
But can Lloris, one of the best goalkeepers in the World Cup, really stop Messi? Three times before this, Messi has broken the hands of Lloris and brought the ball to the net.
The first was in 2009. Messi’s goal was in the match between Barcelona and Lyon. Messi’s shot from the right side of the box tricked the defenders and beat Lloris’ dive to score the goal.
The other two goals were scored in 2018. Lloris was the goalkeeper of the English club Tottenham at that time. And Messi in Barcelona. Both times Messi fooled the Tottenham defense and shot wide when Luis Suarez didn’t touch the ball.
