try for argentina's team and the carpet in leno, messy oh, excitements, voting, and frogs ahead of the welcome final. as i get ready to cheer for team played by injuries and sickness. and serving not just walked on the menu button, passion for full full. we test the knowledge of this in these yes, from southern india. with 4 weeks though, to 2 nations and 64 games. the quest before pulled ultimate prize. and here later, been careful writing champions. frauds will take a logic tina at the las sales stadium at $1500.00 gmc products and looking to become the 1st nation to successfully defend that title. since pallet's, brazil, at 60 years, a guy. but it's a match that could also see a little messy, a winning the try people the 1st time in his final dog on a woke up it days. yes,

the notary says well, couple points for thrilling encounter. and the richardson begins are coverage. if football was a sentimental game, then lino messy may well have been handed, the welcome trophy already now aged 35 massey says this will be his last world cup game, a chance to win the one title that saluted him during a career of close to unrivalled success in 2016 the temperature fine against about settling i miss he was starting to play in the team. that's 2006 grind. took down the 22. but 16 years later. and his team in contest for being player for turn them in all roads. athena leading taylor sale since it's well began a month ago. it's where argentine is campaign began disastrously without defeat, against saudi arabia. happy memories have followed for them here. subsequently, most recently, the semi final went over croatia,

the 1st time france of played this venue is what day she could become just the 2nd coach in history after it, please. sorry, i thought so. back in 1938 to when to well cups day shant. also lifted the trophy as captain in 1998 as did he go to race in russia 4 years ago. the race and his team out to stop messes, final shot at a well title. you need the official focuser on him, but it's not only about him. you know, it's a strong team with the tenant players. was a young generation of players and you can see that they're all dedicated to 2 little missy preparations have also been incense for the man who be in the middle for the biggest game of his career. this is the middle of the season. not like it was before that event and of the season, et cetera. now players are fresh to want to win. i mean, you see the fire, the, i say us and we expect verify game.

yeah, the fire is burning just as brightly amongst the firms in castle all hoping to witness one last when from their team on the richardson al jazeera, loose sale. so what's the temperature like then the in the, the team hotel for argentine i just hours and for the final county. we do wonder because let's being capielo is her diane. she's outside though. tell missy and his team of state has to be says, kind of the other way, very excited. it's judy, but i bet the team is still embed. yeah, things aren't too busy at the moment, but it is the day. and if the match, we really have all been waiting for, i would imagine the players are in the housing unit behind me. i think they're pretty nervous. exciting and also maybe a little bit anxious, a little bit about the location. we're here at the moment. this is the location

that's actually housing unit for students and it's kind of further away from the pearl and the west bay with other teens were thing. i think there's a couple of reasons for that. one is at this location, have more space, which we're told would give the players the flexibility to maybe have barbecues in argentina known as a follow up to get the players a taste of home. and also further from where fans can maybe come in and conglomerated, maybe not be a distraction. so i think those are 2 factors. the coaches were looking for argentina. argentine as you know, has a lot of support here in doha. it's very common to see fans with jersey is just randomly screaming all messy because you can't talk about argentina without talking about messy. specifically, as you mentioned before, a lot of fans hoping he actually gets the wind the world cup and be able to have that honor on his list of accomplishments. cuz he's always great to, to speak to. because when you talk about barbecues that we talk about mouth

watering, so we'll come back through the day and talk your mouth watering gemma, it doesn't come much better than a, a friends argentina finals so much anticipation. absolutely. i mean, i mean for good reason we have against killing them back to the biggest, safe installs in football they and i think the football man 6 would love to see a little messy holding that trophy and a few. i was time at the south stadium. he really has been instrumental in this torments. he has been involved with everything they've done. he's just it really? i mean, are they remember the 86 woke up all 45 months away from being bill. and i'm sure you remember on this a how well this is kind of go rennison as marijuana and 86. so he basically was instrumental in bringing in argentine and winning that ties in a mess. he's been very much the same here. he's just been that talisman than a figurehead and he's also been able, assisted by manchester, sissies, who you're now for as a youngster up front with him. and he's been doing this of her as you say,

the bulk of the workload say that massey can play as he likes. i've seen the argentina games he strolling about the pitch. he's ambling around arresting the, you know, the leg work and then messy to spock. since life when he's needed, he's just been absolutely fantastic. lou, we talk about mouth watering. institute of a block model, 86. i am bold, but i've got to say the argentinian funds here and that's where you really get the feeling of how much the so desperate to see messy lift on trophy. it's not just about messy, it's about a country wanting to see him do. oh, absolutely. i mean, cassie mentioned that her lives, the support here for the year. argentinians is incredible. i've been to a couple of the argentina games, and the fans are so passionate and they've, they've definitely acted like a 12 man and say, i think france not only have to contend with the lino messy. they also have to contend with the crowd because i've got no doubt about it is going to be a lot more sky blue in the cell stadium than their sort of royal blue that the fonts for. and they briefly touching on france. obviously they got killing him.

buffet had been messy bicycle. 5 goals each, the both going and in the race for the golden bait. they also have olivia jewelry. he is now france is all time meeting go score. he's been fantastic for them. say this so much attacking talent all over the picture. hopefully we can expect quite a lot of goals and missile it. we haven't finished the composition, we can continue. and then everyone, because of the rallying cry has been following that origin tinian team and it's plays the sounds and they've gone everywhere. and so as a tune, and if you've watched any of the mattress as both jim and i have in those states, we live in darkly caught wind of mucho's. the song that has become the team sound truck trees of bo has more about that from point designers. oh madison. dina, the song has become argentine as anthem for the world cup. it celebrates the land of vehicle might alona and unit macy, and the young men who died during the 1980 to conflict with britain or the islands known here as the marine us. ah, i mean it sung by an art is known as lamb,

aka, or the fly. it was written by ferryman, the romito we said teacher him when aside a seal. okay, me the doorframe, jenkins. what inspired me was the pain that we all felt by the death of diego marrow donna in 2020, and how important he was for us. we all celebrated when he won the copa america. and now we need to celebrate leonor messy and how grateful we are of having him. oh, the song is being chanted in stadiums on the streets in the subway. ah, and even by the national team players, it's called mucho's and describes the argentine dream of winning the world cup. once again, there's euphoria and argentina with the world cup final and with a national teen look at what some people have done for their vehicles and the song is playing almost everywhere. people say that it makes them happy that he gives them hope argentine is in the middle of

a huge economic crisis, and the world cup has provided destruction to many people hear people like af duncan's bandini who runs a campaign to help children in any way. there was another would outdoors like, you know, we're all going crazy with this. we painted the car and then we lost a saudi arabia and i was like, what do we do with the car? now we're happy and children in the country are happy, and this is it. even if we don't when we're happy that we got here. oh, he'd been songs i celebrated in argentina. be not only praise this beautiful game, but also its history and culture. and the see one song as manage to unite argentine from all sectors of society to show support puleo nail messy and the national team . the city i just want to fight is

a lifetime. oh, excitement building in the country. her supporters wait to find out if france can defend the world cup. i could, i hope france wins. so we go to 3rd star. it's a beautiful team, even if the others weren't bad. of horses yell front us grissman jew and but they so we will win green man g ho and in pappy are among the players who are also in the winning 2018. scored a team whose success inspired a generation of football lovers. he was here on the show, the lead they good friends, celebrated when france won the world cup 4 years ago. if they win again, this famous avenue will be packed with fans once more. the french president, a self confessed football fan, was in doha for the semi final. i'm says he'll return to watch france argentina. i think this is a team with a lot of willingness generosity. and he will have 68000000

people backing them. and we will follow them. a fig tree on sunday would be a 3rd wilcock title for france, and the 1st time in 60 years that a team has one consecutive titles. jeremy says he'll watch the final in his favorite bar on the day that also happens to be his birthday. france victory. the a neat gift he really wants his asked about the, i'll choose 0 harris on saturday, krasier secured bronze medals with a victory over morocco. they beat the atlas lawns to wall at the cliff. an international stadium pressure took an early lead before moral case, swiftly equalized, but amidst us received, just pinpoint short, proved to be the winner. what about the vans watching back? i am well here from nicholas hacking casablanca, and just a moment,

the fast and are inverse it with some very happy supporters in zagreb. what are they to be a football fan in croatia as people are taking it through the streets are coming here on the main square of zagata after 9? no 8 gracious managed to do it once again. ha ha ha. bronze medal is now 4 years ago. one parisha came a 2nd in the finals, a estimated 500000 people came to give them a one big massive thank you. now you can see here that we have this big stage that is already a said after that a semi final game ration national deem they come back to their gro, isha as a victorious team after beating morocco a to one. exactly the same result. like back in 9098.

tomorrow around the 7 i see gratian national team will be arriving at the international airport to 2 hours later. they'll be coming here and do a continued festivities with gratian friends. so we'll see how many of them will come to say one big massive thank you. listen to the applause. there is so much glide among log in for their national teams. and those that come to watch this final game. so what was, what is history to see a moroccan team and eric team and african team goes so far in a world in the middle east. toward 2022 is something that all of these people will remember. my, my grad,

they say there is so much pride now amongst people and some of the fans i spoke to say there's a before and after a quarter 2022. now, the light has been shown on what an arab team can do, what an african team can do. the name such as are shrub, dory bono, the goalkeeper, or names that were unknown to most people. now there, celebrated as heroes throughout the world. and that's worth celebrating well as well. cup comes to a lender, sullivan. java spoke to customer lo, amy, the executive director of the supreme committee for delivery and legacy on her impressions of the tournament. so 12 years of preparations, a lot of controversy going into the tournament, it came and it went, was it a success or failure? it's has been tremendous success for us not only for us as an organizers, as well as we can see from the feedback. our world cup is really unique. the

compact nature of it. fans can actually attend more than much a day. the compact nature between the stadium, which means that even there is no internal flights, people can actually spend more time exploring the country. we have over 1000000 fans who actually came to this tournaments and a lot of them. it's their 1st time to be here in the region. and for us, i think it helped a lot and changing the perception and the mindset that they have, especially when it comes to the middle east and the world, there is a lot of miss to retype and miss the perception. so you can see me like this shift happen. it's been a work up a 1st the 1st in the region, the 1st being hosted by emerson country. what do you think? what are the highlights off this cup? and what were you able to bring to the work? i think this world cup had a lot of unpredicted. things happening on the field. the moment of start would you want to much on the group against urgent tina you can actually see moral cool. it's

the 1st country, the 1st african country actually to reach to the semifinals because he and like there's a lot of work up upset because he, a lot of these funds going through the games wearing the big and the big truck on their head. so you can see how actually they have done to themselves and became part of experience being here. and this is, i mean like how we can see like the impact or the influence of the, of our culture and even like the hospitality. some of the studios is actually close to some of the neighborhoods like us to mama stadium. you can see a lot of people, locals outside the game with their coffee and some food and dates, you know, giving out to, to funds as they leave the game. there is a lot of action with people even called us to reach to the funds, to host them at their home and give them to hospitality. so i think, i mean these, i mean like these moments like, especially like the touch of people's life because i did when people would go away

. this is, i mean like the memories that they be taking with them. making you new friends or bridging the gap. the cultural gap that people would be having, and i think this was actually one of the beautiful moments that i have seen. let's talk about some of the concerns. quite a few of them were legitimate about workers' rights, migrant issues, et cetera. what happens after the work up does the work that got there said is going to continue, stop at the world cup or is there a vision to improve things going forward? we always have been saying, i mean like this world cup was i, it has been as a catalyst to hope and actually pushing a lot of our national vision. 2030. so for example, when it comes to the work her reforms, it's actually mission and the vision which was launched in 2008 before even we bid and won the rights to has the world cup. and we can see me like the time spent the last 10 years. i mean there is a lot, a lot of even legislation and legal reforms that's happening on the country to the benefits of the workers and our journey. would it be stop after the world cup? it will continue. there is going to be

a sport segment and then there's going to be the socio political legacy off destroy them. and where do you think cut their stands? and how will people remember this 1st world cup in the movies for us? i mean, like hosting the world cup and the way how it's happened. i mean, history has been made here. and for us, i think this is what actually be kept in people's mind and memories. and you can see, even when it comes to the outside world, we had for our teams who actually participate in this world cup this tournament helped in uniting a lot of people together. everyone who's actually shooting reagan, sweat out of arab country, would be making. everybody was actually go and get attending to have always said that this world comes not only for a product to present the whole region, and it's for the benefit of the whole region. and we have took their spot responsibility in our shoulder to make sure element of this legacy, whether it's like the self to legacy, the people of the sentiment, people coming together, especially after covet period, where fans were not allowed to be a and sporting a games. but also like the hot and we have the hot the of the stadium,

but also like the workforce. we made sure, i mean, we know usually in this may get events who will always relate international expertise that they would be coming and moving to the next event. but we have the program to suit mr. to wit, retrain a lot of the workforce locally here and also from the region just to sure. i mean, like this knowledge would retain within the region whether it would people would be here to cut that, or if they would be going back to their home countries in the region. they can actually have this knowledge where they can help their countries and staging a sporting events. what happens the day after we're discoverable after the work for us and other has always stablish to self, to be a sporting cup. and visit me like all started from. i mean hosting the asian games in 2006, we on a yearly basis, dubois more than 100 internet look at region international sporting events. and the world cup is the biggest events are on earth. i mean, and a lot of that has hosted by me like that's not going to be the end over having them
