Twelve years have passed, but the feeling of seeing Iker Casillas as the bearer of the World Cup in the World Cup final between Argentina and France, held in Qatar, surely shook many Spaniards.
The man from Móstoles was the protagonist in the previous one by introducing the trophy on the grass of the Lusail stadium, where Argentina and France will play the Qatar 2022 final this Sunday.
Casillas was in charge of raising the cup to the sky in Johannesburg at Soccer City after the victory of the Spanish team against the Netherlands in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Hugo Lloris took over from him in Russia 2018 after France's victory over Croatia (4-2) at Luzhniki in Moscow, and in Lusail he aspires to lift the cup again. The presence of France in the final for the second consecutive time has led FIFA to decide on Casillas as bearer of the trophy.
