In the 2022 World Cup final between Argentina and France, Messi scored 2 goals, including the opening goal 1-0 and the 3-2 score in extra time. However, Mbappe , also a teammate of Neymar and Messi at PSG Club, played brilliantly and scored a hat-trick to equalize the score at 3-3, sending the match to a penalty shootout.
Here, although Mbappe also successfully took his penalty kick, teammates Coman and Tchouameni did not, causing France to lose to Argentina 2-4 and lose the championship.

Meanwhile, Messi and Argentina were crowned World Cup champions that the whole country had been waiting for after 36 years. Messi became the first player in history to receive the title of Best Player at the World Cup twice (World Cup Golden Ball).
Therefore, it is very meaningful for Neymar to immediately congratulate Messi, as this is the wish of the famous Argentine player, and this is also the last World Cup that Messi will attend.
