Paris Saint-Germain forward Lionel Messi was the star of the show in the Argentina national team’s 2022 FIFA World Cup Semifinal win over Croatia.
From his first half penalty goal to his second half assist, Croatia did not have much of an answer for the Argentine forward in the match.
Messi’s keen performance against Croatia was good enough to earn him the Player of the Match award, and Sergio Aguero had the honor of presenting the PSG star with the individual award.
