Lionel Messi started the match against Croatia which means he is now tied with Lothar Matthaus as the most capped player at the World Cup
With a place in the World Cup final, there was no stopping Messi as he led Argentina to victory in the last four games in Qatar.
In doing so, he made an important appearance last night as he appeared in his 25th World Cup match, leveling him with 1990 World Cup winner Matthaus, meaning no player has featured more in the history of this race.
For a man who has won everything in football, perhaps the biggest prize in the beautiful game of football is yet to be claimed by Messi who has had an extraterrestrial career so far.
In what could be said to be his last World Cup final, he now has the opportunity to win this trophy for the first time and also become the player who has won the competition the most.
He scored the first goal from the penalty against Croatia and assisted on one goal, the third.
After they have passed to the final, they will now wait for the opponent that they will learn tonight and it comes from the France-Morocco pair.
