Italy 0-3 Argentina

Goals: Martinez (28^e), Di Maria (45^e+1) and Dybala (90^e+4) for the Albiceleste

Messi and Di María who martyr Donnarumma, there was a settling of accounts in the air at Wembley this Wednesday evening.

Organizations undoubtedly marked by an interminable season, the 22 actors began this Finalissima piano-piano. One exception: Nicolás Otamendi, who took care of distributing tampons to anyone who came in his way. A few courtesies later, Leo Messi opened the ball: after a ride offered to Giovanni Di Lorenzo, the Pulga delivered a caviar to Lautaro Martínez, who only had to push the leather to the bottom of the nets (0-1, 28^e). Visibly much more concerned by the relative stakes of the evening, the Argentinians increased the score just before the break thanks to a dive from Ángel Di María (0-2, 45^e+1).

Giorgio Chiellini came out at the break for his last selection, his friend Leonardo Bonucci almost offered the third pawn on a back pass before seeing Gianluigi Donnarumma save the bet on his line (56^e). The Italian goalkeeper then had to chain the parades on attempts by Di María and Messi not to see his own sink completely (60^e62^e65^e and 69^e). The chalice to the dregs, the Nazionale even ended up cracking one last time a few seconds from the end on an unstoppable strike from Paulo Dybala (0-3, 90^e+4).

Argentina logically won this Finalissima, 29 years after winning the second edition of this intercontinental match.
