A mural of Argentine footballer Lionel Messi is seen at a football pitch known as "El Campito", where he played as a child, in his childhood neighborhood in Rosario, Santa Fe province, Argentina, on April 30, 2026. At the age of 12, Lionel Messi ended the career of his first coach. When Enrique Dominguez stopped coaching him in 1999 at the youth club Malvinas Argentinas in the city of Rosario, he resigned, saying he had "already coached the best player in the world", who could now be set to play in his sixth World Cup.

(FILES) From left, West German defender Andreas Brehme, captain Lothar Matthaeus and Pierre Littbarski celebrate the victory during the World Cup final between West Germany and Argentina on July 8, 1990 in Rome. Avoiding defeat at all costs that could well have been the motto of the 1990 World Cup in Italy, where good football and creativity were conspicuous by their absence, unlike yellow cards (164) and red cards (16). A good example of what the World Cup was like came in the final between Germany and Argentina, a match that bored both television viewers and spectators, in which Germany's Andreas Brehme scored the winning goal from a dubious penalty in the 85th minute. Maradona wept bitterly, whilst Germany, on the verge of reunification, celebrated its third World Cup victory like never before. (Photo by DANIEL GARCIA / AFP via Getty Images)

The 1994 World Cup was held in the United States, where football known as "soccer" in the country was an obscure sport that barely stirred any excitement. Brazil were crowned champions after beating Italy in the final, although the match was a rather lacklustre affair compared to what had gone before. Football's biggest trophy was decided for the first time on penalties. (Photo by Timothy A. CLARY / AFP via Getty Images)

This World Cup will not go down in history for its result-oriented, tactical play, in which no single player stood out above the rest; rather, it will be remembered as Zinedine Zidane's farewell, albeit a sad one that ended with his sending-off in his final match, after he headbutted Marco Materazzi in the chest during the final between France and Italy following a provocation by the Italian in the 110th minute.

"Allez les Bleus!" was undoubtedly the phrase heard most often during this World Cup, won by a host nation that, whilst not exactly dazzling, steadily grew in confidence with every match until they produced a stunning performance in the final against a Brazil side that is still wondering what on earth happened on July 12 to allow them to concede three goals so easily.
