Since the turn of the century, no team has won the World twice, but Brazil, Spain, Germany, France, and Argentina will all have the opportunity to do so.

Argentina won the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, defeating France on penalties (3-3, 4-2). The game is widely considered one of the best soccer games ever, let alone just World Cup Games.

Kylian Mbappe scored a hat trick for France, but it was not enough to get past Lionel Messi who scored a brace.
