Known for his unique sense of humour, legendary Indian opener Virender Sehwag shared an epic tweet after Lionel Messi-led Argentina outclassed France in the FIFA World Cup 2022 final on Sunday. Ending his long wait for the golden trophy, Messi masterminded Argentina's World Cup title success in the Qatar edition of the showpiece event.

Playing one of the most memorable World Cup finals on Sunday, Messi-led Argentina outclassed France 4-2 in a thrilling penalty shoot-out after Mbappe's hat-trick ended the summit clash 3-3 following extra time.
