The match, true to expectations, went down to the wire with Argentina beating France 4-2 on penalties.
Sadhguru who is spearheading the Save Soil Movement was also seen kicking the #ScoreforSoil campaign ball ahead of the match. The campaign, against the backdrop of the Football World Cup, encourages people to put up a video on social media of their best football shot and #ScoreForSoil in support of the Save Soil movement.
The Save Soil Movement is bringing the world’s attention to save the dying soil and is urging nations to mandate 3-6% organic content in agricultural soils around the world through policy-driven initiatives.
In probably the wildest final in the World Cup’s 92-year history, Argentina won its third World Cup title by beating France 4-2 in a penalty shootout after a 3-3 draw featuring two goals from the 35-year-old Lionel Messi and a hat trick by his heir apparent, France forward Kylian Mbappé.
