Argentina are the new world champions after equalizing 3-3 (2-2 in regular time) and beating France on penalties in the Qatar 2022 final. The Argentine team thus won the third title in their history and a lot had to do with the great squad they had. But how much does the Argentine team cost? Here we tell you.
It was surely the best final in the history of finals due to the intensity with which it was played, as well as how changeable the result was. Argentina was 2-0 up, but France equalized and they had to go to extra time where again the South Americans took the lead and the Europeans equalized. In penalties, the Argentines were more precise, thus keeping their third Cup.
Of course, this would not have been possible if it weren't for the great squad of the Argentine team, whose main star is Lionel Messi. However, several players from the main European Leagues are members of this group of 26 players that gave Argentina the 3rd title in its history.
