Coverage of the final (Kick-off 8.00pm), which takes place at New York/New Jersey Stadium in the USA. This is the 104th match of the largest World Cup ever, with the tournament concluding a month and six days after it got under way in Mexico. Neutrals will be hoping this contest is as thrilling a spectacle as it was four years ago in Qatar, when France's Kylian Mbappe became the second player after Sir Geoff Hurst to score a hat-trick in a World Cup final. However, it was to no avail, as France were denied a second successive victory when Argentina prevailed 4-2 on penalties after a 3-3 draw to lift the trophy for the first time since 1986. Golden Ball-winner Lionel Messi followed in the footsteps of another of the game's great players in the star of their last triumph, Diego Maradona, by finally lifting the trophy, and both Messi and Mbappe have enjoyed fine tournaments again this time around
