What Cristian Romero did to Kylian Mbappe in World Cup final after Harry Kane celebration

Cristian Romero will be returning to Hotspur Way a world champion after Argentina beat France in a dramatic World Cup final penalty shootout. A crazy 3-3 draw in 120 minutes saw the game decided on penalties with Gonzalo Montiel converting from 12 yards to crown Argentina as the new world champions.

Lionel Messi converted the opening goal from 12 yards after Angel Di Maria was felled by Ousmane Dembele. Di Maria then doubled his nation's lead in the 36th minute converting Alexis Mac Allister's pass.

Kylian Mbappe then stole the limelight with two goals in two minutes to drag France level and force extra time. Messi snatched the spotlight back with a 108th-minute goal but the contest was not decided yet with Mbappe scoring a penalty with two minutes to go in extra time.
