The international break has given s much to talk about. As Argentina prepares for the World Cup in Qatar in December, we were able to see how Lionel Messi & co. faced the weak Honduran team. Honduras will miss the World Cup, but they were lucky enough to play against Messi in the United States.

What was obvious in the game's preview, Messi made it a reality. Argentina crushed Honduras by far, and Messi took advantage of the low-level defenders he played against and scored twice to the liking of the United States public. There, fans' displayed their affection for the Argentine star. The stadium applauded him both times he managed to score.

On the other hand, one of his teammates at Paris Saint Germain, Kylian Mbappé, didn't have a good time during France's visit to Denmark. There, the French team was eliminated from the Nations League, culminating in disastrous participation before the world title's defense in Qatar. Could it be that France will also be humiliated in the World Cup?

Every time he touched the ball, the Danish fans whistled trying to discourage the French figure. And in the end, it worked.
