Hours after the match against France, what Deschamps said about Messi surprised

Almost everything is ready for what will be the grand final of the World Cup in Qatar, where Argentina and France will seek the title. In this context, Didier Deschamps referred to Lionel Messi, captain of the Albiceleste. The outstanding coach made the differentiation between the 'Flea' of 2018, who was eliminated from the round of 16 by the Gauls, to that of the current tournament.

Without a doubt, Lionel Messi is the most decisive player in the National Team. He has five goals and three assists so far in the competition and is one step away from fulfilling his ultimate dream of winning a World Cup. The level of the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7) was highlighted by Didier Deschamps, who is going for his second trophy as coach.

In a press conference prior to the world final, Deschamps compared what he saw of Messi in 2018 with what he found in the Middle East. “4 years ago, Messi played mainly as a right-back and a false forward. But now he is like an attacking midfielder and has a lot of freedom on the pitch. This makes it very difficult and complicated to stop him," said the Frenchman.
