The clock is ticking on the forward's international career and the one trophy that evades perhaps the greatest player in history is the World Cup.The 34-year-old came close to glory in 2014, only to lose an agonizing final to Germany in extra-time. The 2022 World Cup may be the veteran forward's last dance with Argentina and he will be eager to finally lift the trophy in Qatar.He has shed light on his situation with his national side after the tournament later this year, saying (via Sky Sports):&quot;I don't know what I will do after the World Cup. I am thinking about what is coming. After Qatar, I will have to reassess many things.&quot;It could be in his final tournament with La Albiceleste that he lifts the World Cup to end his storied international career. Argentina are among the favorites, having impressed in the World Cup qualifiers, and will look to win a group consisting of Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland.Get past that group and the PSG star could be leading his country to a third World Cup success.
