FIFA 2022 world cup

[Fritwakky]

England vs France yesterday was a very interesting match. The results proved that sometimes stats are not a reflection of what a team looks like, judging by the stats England were the favorite to win the match. But France found it more easier to win, England didn’t stand a chance against the French defense. I expected more from England because I watch the English premier league regularly and had high hopes for the English team. Is England overrated?

England is has a great team when it comes to football, I don't think they are overrated, it is just that France is better, I don't know where you found the stats that made you believe that England would or should win against France, but from the odds in online sportsbooks, it showed that gamblers were betting massively on France, so I am personally not surprised that France won, from the initial beginning of the match, I expected them to win, it would have been a surprise to me if they didn't.
So for me, I don't think England is overrated, they are indeed good, but from all indications, France is better in football than England.

Considering the balance between France and England, France is a stronger team.  I think the balance is in favor of France.  England is never a weak team.  They are still unlucky in terms of penalties.  Had Kane scored the second penalty, they could have gone to overtime and maybe even won.  It was what a lot of people expected, and France won.  For me, the dream for Morocco will be this far.  It's really hard to beat France.

Indeed, England fans still can't believe they were beaten like this. If Harry Kane had been able to score the second penalty goal, the game might have gone to extra time, and England might have won.

I do agree that no one was expecting Morocco to play semi finals since till date no African country has reached so far in the Fifa world cup. This will boost confidence of African countries like Nigeria, Senegal and Cameroon in next events. So far the defensive strategy of morocco has stunned everyone, they have so far conceded only 1 goal in there 5 games played so far. There next game is with France which is number team but they have already beaten number 2 team i.e. Belgium, so we cant say that France can easily beat Morocco in the semis. I am supporting Morroco since I want to see Fifa world cup going to Africa. It will be biggest upset of sports history if Morocco wins the cup.

Morocco is bringing a revolution to the African football community. It would bring respect and pride to Africa and the Arab world. Africa have suffered so much discrimination and intimidation in football that some sports analyst feel that increasing the slot of African teams would reduce the quality of the world cup. Morocco has helped Africa to prove these critics wrong. Morocco's ability to win the world cup would not only depend on the quality of its team but luck. In terms of performance, France and other remaining teams are far better than them, but if mother luck smiles at them, all the goal attempts of her opponents would either be saved by goalkeeper Yassine Bounou or they would all hit the crossbar.

Yes, England have one of the strongest Leagues in Europe, but as a national team England play shitty, which is why they lost to France... England fans should thank the team captain Hurricane for that... To be honest I had no doubt that France should have won this game and bet on it... I think they deserve to be champions again... I wouldn't be surprised if they meet Croatia again in the final...

Dear 3meek Thankful for this moment, I have been really a bit depressed with stuff's here but seeing the stuff " CAPTAIN HURRICANE "
CRACKED ME REAL GOOD.

Now my own part of what I'll say is that England played better than France but at the end of the day just like Jose Mourinho would always say get me the three points, and France the better side at the end of the day not because they played very well but they managed to qualify to the next round. Harry Kane missed the Penalty I mean to say the second penalty which would have put them level.

Harry Kane missed the Penalty and not even a single abuse was made directly or indirectly to him, if it were to be one of the black English player's ohh my goodness, they will have a bad night for day's and months. Who can recall how three black player's fell for that ? During the Euro's as a result of missing the Penalty...... Any ?

I like it when reading from people that are posting in fantasy, nonetheless, it was a good game from France. Although England was a good team in the match too, this does not give anyone the downgrading right on the French team that played well and still had luck on their side. I don't think that 1-2 in favour of France is a mistake. The French scored the first goal in the first half, while England scored the equalizer in the second half before Olivier Giroud give France the winning match. What could be heroic more than that? England has done their part but France that is the defending champion was better fantastic. Case closed!

France and Argentina are not surprised in the last four. However, it is unexpected for many in the semifinals of Croatia to defeat Brazil. Despite being the last runners -up, many were not optimistic about Croatia. Because their play style never get the attention. I did not expect Morocco in the last four. But the North African country was now in the semifinals to defeat Portugal last night. None of the football fans seem to see Morocco from the beginning of the tournament. But not only did they improve the match by match changing all the calculations, they have won the hearts of everyone, it must be accepted. Step by step improvement has become a mature team.

Seems the only with national team are surprised can lead until semifinal stage, I don't think many people are surprised with Argentina, Croatia and France success lead until semifinal stage in World Cup 2022 Qatar, actually Croatia have been success last season lead to final stage in World Cup before beating by France at final.

Excited to know about which national team will lead to final in World Cup, have two days later with semifinal matches and I have favorite with Argentina can qualifying to final against France.

The importance of this match was further increased by the advance of Morocco.  Even if England had probably won this match, they would have been strong enough to eliminate Morocco.  Now there is a very high probability that France will reach the final.  My guess is that we will see a final between France and Argentina and both teams are strong enough to be champions.  It would be a big surprise if someone from Morocco or Croatia makes it to the final.

Morocco have made the rest of African countries proud tonight after they qualify for the semi finals of the world cup, I was not expecting the level of skillful performance that the team put up today and I am very sure that if the marocains meet with the top country's in the world cup lime France in the final it will be a strong final that only the lucky team will win.

Morocco has only made Morocco proud - if they win - it is Morocco winning not the whole Africa
But yes - many people are happy - but on the other hand its very sad seeing the legends like Neymar and Ronaldo crying
I have now lost the interest in matches because Ronaldo is not in the tournament any more

If you read through Christana Ronaldo social media post today you will see how heart breaking it was for the legend to retire from active football without winning world cup for his country, but this is football anything can happen so Ronaldo has to man up and be grateful for all he has achieved in his football career.

[TopT3ns]

It was really another big disappointment for England supporters. After 56 years they were closing in on the title slowly here. But they couldn't get past the France obstacle. England could have prevented the game from ending in 90 minutes as well. However the penalty Kane missed cost them this. I wish Rashford used that last chance free-kick more effectively like a passing organization.

I was expecting that kind of an organization actually after seeing how it worked against Argentina by Netherlands before. But he decided to take that huge responsibility and failed. His shot wasn't bad maybe but here we are.

England did everything they could to defend themselves, with 90 minutes to defend and trying to put pressure on France was not easy and this proved they only lost to the side of luck which was not on England's side even though possession of the ball on the field was more better english than french.

We are slowly approaching the end of the World Cup. I'm actually a little sad that this beautiful event is ending. I wish the tournament would go on a little longer. Anyway, I'll suffice with this.

The next first match will be Croatia - Argentina. Croatia are the finalists of the last World Cup. They are used to playing tough matches at this level. They have very experienced players like Modric and Perisic. In addition, their goalkeeper Livakovic marked the tournament with the penalties he saved. I have been supporting Argentina since the beginning of the tournament. However, Croatia can create great dangers in this match with the difference in experience. Messi will need to take the initiative in this match. Otherwise, Argentina may face a nasty surprise in this match.

Argentina has misbehaved in its last match against the Netherlands. But whoever was most at fault in that game seemed to be the referee. Messi would definitely not get a yellow card. It looked like he had been bribed. Croatia has received much more sympathy from the neutral spectator and Croatia can also go to the final from me. I would prefer to see the game Morocco - Croatia, but that chance is really very small. I still see Croatia playing against Argentina, but Morocco seems to me to have no chance if France reaches its normal level.

If Ronaldo played from the first half of the game to the end at least he would have done some something tangible, but I can't also say that because football is a game of luck and even though, it is a game of luck, good team always win weak team, just that Morocco team is a strong team in the tournament. Morocco has no international players in their team but their performance in the world cup is wonderful.

If we are objective Portugal never really had a team to win the word cup, there was a time in which Ronaldo was without at the very top and was one of the best players around the world, but soccer is a team game and even he could not win the world cup alone, and what better example of this than Messi which had a better team in Argentina and he is also looking to win his first world cup as most likely this is the last chance he will ever have to do it.

[AakZaki]

This world cup has been full of surprises, so who knows, maybe Morocco ends up winning against France, and ends up winning against Messi as well in the final.

That would make Morocco the super-star destroyer.

Of course, but they have to win against France, it's tough. Above the statistical record Morocco will not win. But as you said, Morocco has become an unexpected force. There aren't many star players, but their spirits are currently in a green image, fighting spirit ready to fight. The victory in the previous party made them unstoppable until now. I don't dare to bet against France, in terms of quality I actually prefer France but Morocco has a spirit that is beyond expectations.

I still see Croatia playing against Argentina, but Morocco seems to me to have no chance if France reaches its normal level.

If Croatia only has two experienced players regarding Modric and Perisic, then what about Argentina, I think all Argentine players have very good experience in every line at the highest level in the big European leagues too. Thus, I think Argentina will still be in front or still have a greater chance of winning.
Even though, I also realize that Croatia is certainly not easy to beat because if Brazil can be beaten then of course Croatia will also have the chance to win against Argentina.

But I think it's also just a theory because if we bet then we should be able to choose one of them and for me, it looks like I will still choose Argentina to qualify. Even if Croatia and Morocco reach the final then of course, it's the surprise final that happened at the Qatar World Cup.
But it seems that the chance for them is very low, even though I also chose and bet on Morocco when Morocco played against Spain and Portugal, but against France it seems I can't choose Morocco for several reasons.

If Harry Kane hadn't missed the penalty then England might have secured victory. Because it's really difficult to score against France in the game because their defense has been doing great. So the second penalty gave England a great chance but Harry Kane missed the penalty and England lost.

The bookmakers believe that Argentina is the big favorite in the semi-final match against Croatia. No idea what that is based on. They have not achieved a single convincing victory yet, and it was almost 2-2 in the closing minutes against Australia in the round of 16. The whole team seems built for Messi, if he didn't participate then it would be the end of the story. Messi also behaved very unprofessionally after the quarter-final match. He was very annoyed and also called a player of the Dutch national team a sucker. As the best player in the world, you have to keep your emotions under control.

Argentina will indeed be favored and favored by many people in the next match against Croatia in the semi-finals. But I would prefer to bet on Croatia. because I seem to see that there will be a repeat of history like in 2018. That is where Croatia faced France in the final. but then morocco appeared unexpectedly morocco can now qualify for the semi-finals by beating portugal. And I'm interested if Morocco will surprise us again next time against France?

Great confidence has been created in the Argentina team. Because they lost the first match, after that they came back brilliantly. Now they have confirmed the semi-final. All the players of the team are playing with their maximum. All football fans are very hopeful that Lionel Messi's team will secure the World Cup title this time.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Poland beat Saudi Arabia 2-0 today and they are in Group Table C with maximum points. Today's match Saudi Arabia tried several times after the second half time to recover a goal but Poland's goalkeeper saved all the balls. That's why in the last moment, Poland scored another goal to leave Saudi Arabia behind. And then almost at the end of the game, it was no longer possible for Saudi Arabia to repay the goal. If Saudi Arabia had played the way they played against Argentina in today's match, there would have been a chance of victory against Poland. But unfortunately Saudi Arabia could not win this match but Poland played very well due to which they won this match.

This game was very exciting, I really believed for a moment that the Arabs were going to be able to tie and even win, something like that happened with ARGENITNA, something that I should highlight is that the Polish goalkeeper was really the star here, on the other hand Lewa's goal was very dramatic, he wanted to score and you can see that it brought many tears to his eyes, these are one of the things that football sometimes shows us and that they like, sometimes the effort is well rewarded, in this group Poland He is the leader, but everything can be decided when it is Argentina's turn to play Poland, it would be crazy for Argentina not to make it to the second phase of the World Cup.

For sure Brazil will win the match, but I'm a bit sure Croatia wouldn't make it easy, If we look at the odds, the draw (1x2) position is look good to bet the money. Yes, I know when looking at the material squad from each line, Brazil has better than Croatia but who knows when kick-off begins, Croatia adjusts the defensive scheme and tries to gamble off the penalty shoot as they did it before.

It would be bad strategy if Croatia use a full defensive strategy against Brazil, a team with many talented players and with a great team work. I doubt Croatia can defend a draw till the end of the normal time if they use full defensive/bus parking strategy. Betting on a draw is risky obviously but it is your choice and you must be ready for the risk already. If I have to place a risky bet, I would even prefer to bet on Croatia than on a draw

Croatia actually can playing with attacking style during this tournament but mostly it because their opponents were weaker than them but currently will be different because Croatia was know the strength of Brazil that this team was filled with plenty of talented players and playing attacking against Brazil will be suicided because Croatia will possibly ended with conceded a lot goals and it's normal if there is a team will playing defensively while against strong teams and this is also what Croatia will do in this match that they will attempts not to conceded goals first and will take opportunities to score goals from counterattacks

Croatia look didn't give the opportunity between 90', Brazil is look desperate and was able by neymar in extra time, but petkovic make same the score again in 120'.
So, my bet is correct for the draw, but enough sad my favorite champion comes home sooner than expected. We can not doubt Croatia is biggest country on football, we don't have to underestimate them to the next semifinal. I'm really sure they will make Argentina struggle and not easy. Maybe we can see Croatioa on the next surprised.

The truth is, as a South American, it saddens me that Brazil is leaving the World Cup, but we must admit that Croatia had a very balanced game and they didn't let themselves be beaten when everything was ready, I really admire Modric a lot, and I congratulate all the Croats anyway Due to such a good display of football, now they have to measure themselves against a team that fights every inch of the field like Argentina and Argentina already comes with a lot of experience of what happened with the Netherlands and I don't think they want to go to penalties with a great goalkeeper As both nations have it, for me they are on another level, the two goalkeepers are really very good.

Well, CR7 is unfortunate, but I don't understand the thinking of some Europeans, for them it was easier to leave CR7 on the bench with the only hope that they would win without him, I mean, it's something I will never understand, for My Portugal lost because of their coach, you just have to see the example of Croatia with a Modric who is 36-37 years old and they didn't take him out of the game at all, a Messi who is around those ages too and they didn't take him out, always his coaches They trusted their stars, and now this guy who wanted to act like a failed Ten Hag? I sometimes do not understand European coaches with a lack of vision, wanting to show that they know a lot about football and there it is, what Messi said to Van Gaal seems fine to me, sometimes you have to tell the truth in the face of people to see If they learn, and for me the culprit for everything here was the technical director of Portugal.

Kylian Mbappe responds to Cristiano Ronaldo’s latest social media post

Kylian Mbappe has offered his support to Cristiano Ronaldo following Portugal’s quarter-final exit from the 2022 World Cup.

The French international helped guide Les Bleus to the competition’s semi-finals after beating England 2-1 on Saturday night.

However, Portugal weren’t so lucky at the same stage of the tournament, and after losing 1-0 against Morocco, Fernando Santos’ Europeans will now head home, and for Ronaldo, this weekend’s crushing exit will likely be his final appearance in the prestigious competition.

In history, these people who wanted to stop a star and a legend will be remembered as the most villains, or as those who wanted to silence the shine of others so that they could do it.

OP, why is there a choice in voting for France vs Morocco in the final? because these two teams are unlikely to face each other in the final. because morocco and france will face each other in the semifinals. and one of them will fall and the other one will advance to the final. maybe the OP meant France vs croatia. or the OP is joking. and it's funny because apparently someone voted for it.
