Football being a global sport drew crowds from all over the world to the stadiums and to live telecast . VAR -[Video assistant referee] is the new inclusion of the tournament and was of great help to referees who control the game where they corrected many decisions .women referee were also introduced in a match .Messi emerged as a captain who completed 1000 matches of his career. His sheer genius took Argentina to a memorable worldcup victory since 1986 an elusive feat for him thus far.
