It might seem a lifetime ago in the time warp that is Argentine daily life, but it was just barely a year ago when the entire country basked in the glory of its 2022 win at the Qatar World Cup. Four recent documentaries depicting the Argentine team’s path to the greatest sporting triumph of the country’ history are now available online. Messi’s World Cup – Apple TVThe title is self-explanatory: the series relives the 2022 Qatar World Cup through Lionel Messi’s eyes, depicted as the culminating moment of his career. Unlike other series and documentaries, Messi’s World Cup is an exploration of their feelings and thoughts on the tournament. Captains of the World – NetflixThis overall view of the World Cup as seen through the eyes of the captains of the major teams echoes the narrative of legendary films like Heroes, the documentary that told the story of the Argentina World Cup win in Mexico ‘86.
