Argentina vs. France start time, live stream: How to watch 2022 World Cup final live online
Argentina vs France"I had the privilege and pride of being able to win this trophy with my teammates in 2018," said France captain Hugo Lloris on Saturday. "But to be honest, I am focused on the present. What happened before is the past. We want to write our own story. We want to end this in the best possible way. As long as nothing is done, the hardest part remains to be done. We must prepare for a great match, for any eventuality. Be ready to surpass ourselves, to make the effort despite the circumstances with the virus, despite the fatigue. We have to finish the job."
"From the moment we have the support of our supporters, we know that the country is behind us," he added. "The rest is of very little importance. We started this competition with a mission, that of going as far as possible. Very few believed in it. We will give everything to emerge victorious from this final battle. We know what Leo Messi represents in the history of our sport, but I believe that it will be above all a match between the France team and the Argentina team.

Team news
Argentina: Marco Acuna and Gonzalo Montiel no longer have suspension worries hanging over them although Nahuel Molina is likely to start ahead of Montiel on the right while Acuna might replace Nicolas Tagliafico on the left. Lisandro Martinez is likely to be a substitute once more while Alejandro Gomez is most likely to require a bench role too after his recent ankle issue. Messi suffered a hamstring scare in the semifinals and sat out training earlier this week but should be fine for Sunday where a start would be his 26th at a World Cup which would be an Argentine record. Angel di Maria will hope to start ahead of former PSG teammate Leandro Paredes while Paulo Dybala and Lautaro Martinez will almost certainly be used from the bench.
"They are a very well organised team, very strong defensively, aggressive on the ball carrier," said Lloris of Argentina. "They play very well in offensive transitions, taking advantage of the mistakes of the opponent. In the history of Argentina, there has always been truly great players. There was Maradona, today Messi. There will be a lot of expectation in relation to this final on the Argentinian side. Now, I believe when you are French, to play a World Cup final, whoever the opponent is, it is a big event. Meeting Argentina at this stage makes things even better. We hope this game will go down in history for the French side."
France: There are concerns growing that Didier Deschamps might have to do without a player or two with illness continuing to impact Les Bleus after Andrien Rabiot and Dayot Upamecano's forced absences vs. Morocco. Kingsley Coman, Raphael Varane, and Ibrahima Konate have all suffered the sickness since the win over the Atlas Lions and although Rabiot and Upamecano should now be fine, Varane and Konate would be problematic as it would require a new central defensive pairing. Theo Hernandez should be fit despite a knee complaint after the Moroccan success while Aurelien Tchouameni took a blow to the hip. Kylian Mbappe and Olivier Giroud should continue in attack aided by the in-form Antoine Griezmann and Saturday will be crucial in determining eligibility so Deschamps will be hoping that no new cases surface so close to the game. As of Saturday, Varane and Konate were at least able to rejoin their teammates and train.
"I have no more news than [what was reported] last night," added Lloris. "You will certainly have more info by the next training session. The virus, we are never prepared for this kind of thing. We are trying to make the best of the situation we are in, quite simply. These are things for which we were not necessarily prepared, but that does not take away from the excitement we can have.
Prediction
This one is going to be tight and almost too close to call. Despite the overriding narrative suggesting that Messi's success is meant to be, the pragmatic French approach could steal his thunder and instead leave Mbappe celebrating. Pick: Argentina 0, France 1.https://vk.com/@thara8-avatar-2-the-way-of-water-2022-hd

World Cup final TV schedule: How to watch Argentina vs. France
DOHA, Qatar — The first (and possibly last) December World Cup ends this weekend with two soccer powers meeting in the World Cup final.
France looks to become the first World Cup champion to successfully defend its title in 60 years Sunday when it plays an Argentina squad trying to capture its first title since 1986.
Everything you need to know to watch the World Cup third-place game and final, including start times, TV channels and streaming options:
For the record:
12:09 p.m. Dec. 17, 2022An earlier version of this story stated Argentina hasn’t won the World Cup in 44 years. It last won in 1986 — 36 years ago.
Where: Lusail Stadium
Time: 7 a.m. PST Sunday
TV: Fox, Telemundo, Peacock Premium
The buzz: France won the World Cup four years ago; Argentina hasn’t won in Lionel Messi’s lifetime. This will be the first World Cup final since 1978, when Argentina won, in which neither finalist is undefeated; France lost to Tunisia and Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia in group play.
But the history involved in this game goes far beyond the trivial. If France wins, it would become the first men’s team to win back-to-back World Cups since Brazil in 1962 and coach Didier Deschamps, who played 90 minutes in France’s win over Brazil in the 1998 final, would become the first person to play on a World Cup winner and coach two champions. He would also join American Jill Ellis and Italian Vittorio Pozzo as the only coaches to win consecutive titles.
For Argentina, a win would finally give Messi the one prize he’s missing — a World Cup title. In fact, for all his greatness, Messi has won just one major international championship and that came in the 2008 Olympics.
The teams are evenly matched: France, ranked fourth in the world by FIFA, is 5-1-0 in the tournament, having outscored opponents 13-5, while No. 3 Argentina, which needed penalties to get by the Netherlands in the quarterfinals, is 4-1-1 with a 12-5 goal differential.
Paris Saint-Germain teammates Messi and Kylian Mbappe of France lead the tournament in scoring with five goals each while France’s Olivier Giroud and Argentina’s Julián Álvarez are tied for second with four apiece. Álvarez, 22, is bidding to become the first person born this century to win a World Cup scoring title.
France, which came to Qatar missing four potential starters to injury, then lost two more before halftime of the first game, has been hit by a virus over the last week with midfielder Adrien Rabiot and defender Dayot Upamecano missing the semifinal win over Morocco and froward Kingsley Coman’s participation in the final in doubt because of illness.
France could get some help if forward Karim Benzema, the reigning Ballon d’Or winner, is allowed to suit up. Benzema tore a muscle in his left thigh days before France’s opener but was never removed from the tournament roster. He has resumed training and was given permission by Real Madrid, his club team, to return to Qatar for the final, but as of Friday there was no word from the French camp as to whether Deschamps is considering such a move.

Argentina, meanwhile, is monitoring Messi, who also shares the tournament lead for assists with France’s Antoine Griezmann and two others, all with three apiece. The Argentine captain has been experiencing discomfort in his left hamstring but it would take more than that to keep him off the field for the final.
For the first time, U.S. officials will be part of the refereeing crew for a World Cup final, with Ismail Elfath chosen to be the fourth official and Kathryn Nesbitt, the first woman ever assigned to a men’s World Cup final, the reserve assistant referee.
Sunday is National Day in Qatar, the most important secular holiday in the country, commemorating the country’s unification in 1878.
