Dec 17 2022, 1:42 am

Two countries remain at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. One will fall Sunday in the tournament’s final.

France and Argentina are the last two teams standing, with each country vying for soccer (or football) supremacy on the global stage. It’s a matchup that has no shortage of star power, as it features Lionel Messi for Argentina and Kylian Mbappé for France.

France advanced to the final of the 2022 World Cup after dispatching of Morocco 2-0 in the tournament’s second semifinal on Wednesday, after Argentina trumped Croatia 3-0 to clinch an opportunity to play in the finale on Tuesday.

France, which won Group D in the group stage, is the defending champion, having captured the 2018 World Cup in Russia — their second title following a win in 1998. Only Brazil, in 1962, and Italy, in 1938, have ever successfully defended the World Cup.

Argentina, which led Group C, last won in 1986, their second of two championships after also claiming victory in 1978.

When is the FIFA World Cup final

France and Argentina will meet at Lusail Stadium, which has an official capacity of 88,966, in the World Cup Final on Sunday, December 18, beginning at 10 am ET/7 am PT.
