Like the five times World Cup champions Brazil, Argentina team also have the all times favoruites tag to win the cup, though, they could won for only twice in 1978 and 1986 (Led by the Football God Diego Maradona).
So the real narrative is Argentina and Brazil are arguably the favourites to win the World Cup this year.
However, Lionel Messi and Argentina came closer to winning it back in 2014 and The Albacelestes are one of the front-runners and the most in-form team in this edition.
Now, Lionel Messi has just one last chance to win the World Cup for Argentina when top five players of the team can help Lionel Messi and Argentina win the 2022 World Cup.

The top five players of the team, who can assist Messi and Argentina win 2022 FIFA World Cup
Lionel Messi, who played in five World Cups with uber- talented teammates, but could not celebrate for once, has just one last chance to win the World Cup for Argentina and top five players can help Lionel Messi and Argentina win the 2022 World Cup.
The top five players are:
Angel Di Maria: For whom it will also be the last World Cup for alongside Lionel Messi, is one of the most underrated football players of this generation, played in various big clubs in his career and performed exquisitely under the shadow of many big players until he earned his recognition. Angel Di Maria even scored the winning goal against Brazil in the Copa America final.
A world-class player like Di Maria and Dybala who is injured and is not at 100 percent fitness and left Di Maria as the only other winger, as well as playmaker alongside Lionel Messi to win the World Cup for Argentina.
Lisandro Martinez: Lisandro Martinez, who will feature in his first World Cup, has performed great in the Premier League for Manchester United. Argentina manager Scaloni choose Martinez for a variety of reasons.
Lisandro who is quite unusual to see here since Scaloni usually opts for Otamendi and Christian Romero, is one of the best on-the-ball defenders in the Premier league and definitely one of the best in aerial duels.
Emiliano Martinez: Martinez’s performances will be crucial for Argentina. The biggest highlight of his career came in the Copa America 2020. Argentina sealed their first Copa America in 28 years with Emiliano Martinez saving various penalties as well.
Rodrigo De Paul: Just a few days after winning the Copa America with Argentina, the midfield maestro or perhaps the engine of the midfield, a completely different player of Argentina when the Argentine manager Lionel Scaloni will look to play him right at the centre of the midfield.
De Paul displayed this skill against Brazil in the Copa America final when he assisted Di Maria .
Argentina expect Lautaro Martinez among one of the front-three line-up is Messi – Lautaro – Di Maria, because Messi’s role as a playmaker is one of the best in the world only if put to use with the help of a world-class striker like him. Martinez is widely known to beat his markers and scoring goals. He scored 21 goals in 40 appearances for Argentina since 2018. Lautaro is arguably the most crucial player for both Argentina and Lionel Messi.
