Argentina have won the World Cup, beating France 4-2 on penalties following a 3-3 draw after extra time in the final in Lusail.

Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez saved Kingsley Coman's penalty and Aurelien Tchouameni fired wide to give Argentina their first world title since 1986, and third overall.
