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. A tense and dramatic affair, the final with France became a match for the ages that consecrated Lionel Messi as an immortal and turned December 18, 2022, into a day millions just play back in their minds from time to time and smile.

For those aching to relive that day in a more concrete way, there’s some good news in store. Four recent documentaries depicting the Argentine team’s path to the greatest sporting triumph of the country’ history are now available online. While they each have different angles — from a first-person account by Messi himself all the way to an exploration of Argentine fans’ joys and tribulations during the World Cup — all of them (two series and two films) aim to capture the utter singularity of a month-long journey.

Four different perspectives to tell the same story, all ending of course in identical fashion: Argentina campeón del mundo.

The 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.

The 4-episode documentary focuses on the tournament as the superstar’s final step in his journey to become a world........
