The report states that Messi was injured early. But it is unclear how serious the injury is. During the match against Croatia, Messi was seen straining his thigh muscles several times.
The fans hope that Messi, who is going to the last World Cup in his career, will play the final in full health.
Acuna and Mondiel, who missed the semis due to suspension, will return to the starting eleven for the final. Angel Di Maria’s injury recovery gives fans hope.
Messi and Mbappé have been in the hunt for goals so far in Qatar. Both have five goals each in the Qatar World Cup. Argentina super striker Julian Alvarez and French superstar Giroud are close behind with four goals each.
The Argentina-France final is on Sunday at the Lucille Stadium. Argentina is playing the first World Cup final since 2014.
