Cristian Romero, Spurs and the World Cup Final | Tottenham Hotspur

Mon 19 December 2022, 11:25|Tottenham Hotspur

The Club now has two World Cup winners and 11 finalists after Cristian Romero lifted football's most-coveted trophy in Qatar on Sunday.

Hugo Lloris, runner-up this time around with France after a stunning showpiece at the Lusail Stadium, is the other player at Spurs at the time of his World Cup triumph in Russia in 2018.

Cuti took home the gold medal after Argentina won the final on penalties. In a game that had just about everything, Argentina led 2-0 only for Kylian Mbappe to score twice to level at 2-2 and take it to extra time. Lionel Messi restored Argentina's lead at 3-2 only for Mbappe to complete his hat-trick and then Kolo Muani was denied the chance to snatch it 4-3 point-blank by Emiliano Martinez. Argentina won the shoot-out 4-2 after Martinez saved from Kingsley Coman and Aurelian Tchouameni fired wide.
