Messi wins the Golden Ball!
And now the best player at the tournament award goes ot none other than Lionel Messi!!! He walks onto the podium with a wide smile and then gives the trophy a kiss to huge cheers from the crowd.
Such stark contrast to 2014 when Messi received the award post their 1-0 loss to Germany.
Now a visibly dejected Kylian Mbappe is on the podium to receive the Golden Boot award. His hat-trick today took him to eight goals in the tournament. One more than Lionel Messi.
Emiliano Martinez now walks onto the stage to receive the Golden Glove trophy!
The first Individual award is the Young Player of the tournament which is given to Enzo Fernandez! The 21-year-old scored an absolute screamer against Mexico and really made that midfield position his own after coming into the side following the defeat to Saudi Arabia.
