“I sincerely congratulate Argentina and all Argentines, who became the 2022 FIFA World Cup Champions after one of the most closely contested final matches in history,” Erdoğan wrote on Twitter.
Argentina won the match 4–2 on penalties following a 3–3 draw after extra time for their third FIFA World Cup title and first since 1986.
They led 2–0 at half-time, but a hat-trick for France by Kylian Mbappé and an additional goal for Argentina tied the match in extra time. (ILKHA)
