From Morning Report, 7:55 am on 16 December 2022

It will be a long weekend of waiting for football fans - ahead of the World Cup final between France and Argentina in Qatar on Monday morning.

France are aiming to become just the third team to defend world sport's most prized trophy, having won four years ago in Russia.

For Argentina, it's all about completing a legacy for their captain Lionel Messi - regarded as one of the finest players to grace the turf.
