Argentina forward Lionel Messi has been named Player of the Match following his side's 3-0 win against Italy in the 2022 Finalissima in London.
The 34-year-old was chosen by the UEFA Technical Observer panel, who gave Messi credit for an extraordinary all-round performance: "He controlled the game from the start to finish. He showed great skill to lay on the assist for Lautaro Martínez, provided key passes for his team-mates and was unlucky not to score himself. He has put in a masterclass performance for the Wembley crowd. It was a joy to watch."
