World Cup Bet of the Day: Lionel Messi to be the last goalscorer of this World Cup

Not long to go now...

We’ve got Leo-fever…

…and we think the little genius is going to shine in tonight’s World Cup Final between Germany and Argentina in Rio.

This is what it’s all been leading up to and, frankly, we don’t know how we’re going to get through the next few weeks of living off transfer rumours and friendlies from Turf Moor.

But enough of that, we’re just one hour away from the biggest sporting event on the planet and the betting markets are all pointing towards one man.

Lionel Messi has kept his powder dry since the group stages, where he almost single-handedly saw Argentina through, and whether or not he lifts the trophy tonight we reckon he’ll be on the scoresheet.

We love a ‘last goalscorer’ market here at JOE, and the Barcelona magician is available at odds of 5/1 with Ladbrokes to score the final goal of this World Cup.
