The World Cup final of Argentina vs France saw each country's respective superstars in Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi collide. Away from the international stage, the tantalizing duo are team-mates at Paris Saint-Germain and they are not the only pair, usually playing alongside one and another, set to clash in Qatar.
Tottenham's Cristian Romero of Argentina and Hugo Lloris of France also did battle against each other with both having been key members of their own nation's World Cup campaigns. Lloris and Romero competing in Qatar will likely mean Antonio Conte will not have them available for Spurs' Premier League return on Boxing Day.
Romero, who arrived at Hotspur Way from Atalanta, has missed much of Tottenham's first few months through injury but managed to recover from his latest issue in time for Argentina's clash with Saudi Arabia.
