Drink it all in.

The FIFA World Cup 2022 closed its curtains with a big win for Argentina, after giving a tough fight against France.  The joy of winning the world cup after 36 long years, excited the entire world. There were even reports that people in France are celebrating Argentina's victory!

Everyone is gearing up to watch the final of the 2022 Qatar World Cup between Argentina and France, and it seems that there are plenty of famous people who are choosing Lionel Messi over Kylian Mbappe.

Lionel Messi’s life and career have an array of valuable lessons for all of us. His quotes reflect being humble, being unfazed by failure, and above all, knowing the true values of humanity. These beliefs are not unique to a sport but to life. Some people believe Lionel Messi, the Argentine footballer, is one of the greatest players of all time, if not the greatest player ever to grace the football field. The Argentine footballer did not come to his stardom easily. He started from a place of poverty and worked his way up using every opportunity that came his way.

The people of Bangladesh have been supporting Argentina for well over two decades since the great Maradona era which really enhanced the fanbase here in Bangladesh. The love for Argentina's national team can be dated to a specific moment and location: On June 22nd, 1986, in Mexico City's Estadio Azteca. In a triumph over England that day, Diego Maradona scored twice (the notorious "Hand of God" and a masterful dribble goal that is regarded as the best goal in tournament history), humiliating the creators of the modern game and cementing his legend.

Bangladesh's favourite Argentina beats Australia 2-1 to advance to the quarter finals of the FIFA World Cup 2022.

The first upset was of course, Qatar losing the opening game as the host country. This is a first in the history of FIFA World cup (although we can’t really say we were surprised). The next one was not far behind when Argentina were beaten by Saudi Arabia. Instantly creating the buzz of ‘Harjentina’ (portmanteau of the words har as in loser, and Argentina).

Failing the expectations of the fans, World Cup favourites Argentina lost the first match of their World Cup campaign, being beaten by Saudi Arabia 2-1. This loss has caused fans of the team to worry, with many questioning the performance of the team captain, Lionel Messi, on social media.
