2026 World Cup Final: Messi vs Mbappé for Golden Boot
Lionel Messi reached the 2026 World Cup final while aiming to achieve two significant milestones: winning the Golden Boot as the tournament's top scorer and claiming the Ballon d'Or for the third time in his career. Securing the Golden Boot requires him to make up a two-goal deficit from Kylian Mbappé, who scored 10 goals after netting a brace in the third-place match. Although competing for the top scorer title is challenging, Messi is close to winning it, currently just one goal behind. If he succeeds, he will become the first player to combine the Golden Boot and a World Cup victory since Ronaldo in 2002. Additionally, winning the Ballon d'Or for the third time would make him the first player to achieve this in World Cup history.
