Lionel Scaloni-led Argentina Team
The Lionel Scaloni-led Argentina team will enter the competition as one of the favourites because it has gone 35 games without suffering a loss.
The closest Argentina has come to winning the World Cup since Messi made his debut was in 2014, when the squad lost to Germany 1-0 in the championship game thanks to a stoppage time goal by Mario Götze. Argentina was eliminated from the competition in 2018 after losing to France 4-3 in the round of 16.
