FIFA 2022 world cup

[Lillominato89]

About 23 minutes into the Argentina vs Croatia semi final match, so far, no goals yet, no significant goal attempts yet from both sides, but Croatia seems to be really playing well tonight, the ball seems to be on their possession more often than it is for the Argentina team.

Right now, it is kinda hard to predict which team is likely to win this match, I was actually expecting Argentina to win but from the way Croatia is playing, it seems they are well prepared for the game, hopefully, as the game progresses, it will become clearer and easier to predict the winner tonight.

yes! you are right! I'm watching the game and I have to say that both teams are studying each other, most likely we will see something more in the second half of the match, obviously both teams play carefully, after all there is always access to the cup final of the world. I thought this Argentina would start attacking right away but apparently I have to change my mind

Argentine has advantage 10 mins to the half time.
The goalkeeper should not have given up - to have the foul. But Referees are giving more side to Argentina

Argentina scored their first goal by Messi (penalty). So Messi scored goals in all matches of this fifa world cup. This is a record and what an achievement by this player.
Now waiting for Croatia to respond to this goal.

Argentina are now leading 1-0, after the goal keeper fouled the Argentine striker, Alvarez in the penalty area. Messi have just secured a goal for them after scoring the penalty. So far, the match have been in possession of Croatia but they haven’t created any good chance of goal while Argentina keeps converting their chances on goal.

[DaNNy001]

The first semi finals game is ongoing now and Croatia seem to bed  well composed in this early part of the match and will be looking forward to outsmart Argentina and secure a place in the finals and hopefully this time they can cover up for their flaws in the previous Final they lost to the french men. Croatia is very strong side to play and looking back to the previous games of Argentina with european teams, they have struggled to find a win and this game also will be another tough game for them.

On the other hand Argentina have really struggled for a World Cup final Victory, they have been quite consistant in reaching this round in the last 8years but have failed to secure the trophy and Lionel Messi is really eager this time around to win this trophy for his country and add this specular award to his cabinet of never ending feat of awards

Croatian goalkeeper is lost today - Now Argentina has advantage by two goal
They are surely going to win the game. Croatia is losing the hope and moral now - their head are spinning and they are getting more favour from the referee that is my opinion

[GxSTxV]

Argentina is ahead with two goals already in the 38 minutes of first half against Croatia, did anyone notice that Argentina totally changed their strategy of game play while they were playing in full attack they became a totally defensive team even Messi is coming back to defense, and depending on counterattacks that seem to be so effective for now.
Croatia was dominant with the ball and statistics but Argentina is better in scoring

[Majestic-milf]

I never saw this coming, Croatia side are forcing the attack but the goals are not coming. Argentina are just absolving the pressure and now they are the ones calling the shots. Croatia can't even come back from this one.

Is a big win to the Argentina side no penalty this time around.

Another goal by Argentina now they are 2-0 ,what an exceptional game by Argentina they are unstoppable today. This match is going more in favour of Argentina.  
Second goal scored by J. Álvarez at 39 minutes.

Croatia even reached this stage perfectly.  Their comeback against Brazil was unforgettable but I can't believe they could do the same against Argentina.  Argentina will eventually make it to the final and their opponent in the final will most likely be France.  I don't know who will win this final, but both teams are very strong.

[snipie]

Argentina 2 - 0 Croatia.
Croatia played the first 15 minutes good then all changed. Messi scored a goal from penalty then Alvarez run almost 60% of the field alone to score the second goal. Now it is almost an own goal by Croatia.
It doesn't seem good for Croatia at all this match..

Is a big win to the Argentina side no penalty this time around.

That is correct - Croatia cannot ever come back from this.
This is huge - Argentina is high morals and Croatia losing all the hopes. But goal is a matter of second.

[ZAINmalik75]

Hurrah whao whao Argentina are on fire, they are 2 goal lead against the crostia team of old man's, such amazing chemistry shown by Argentine two goals in just few minutes.
First goal from penelty by Greatest of All time  Lionel Messi, which has been created by Alvarez. while second goal by the young striker Alvarez too such a phenomenal young talent, I know that Argentina can do it and  they done it, Now Croatia are under pressure and can't control Thier nerves for strike, Argentina break The whole Formation of Croatia by his beautiful passes, I think 2-0 lead is far enough for Argentina to hold Croatia and kick them out of World Cup , I am sure that more goals are on the way come on Argentina..

[bitzizzix]

Julian Alvarez played really well and he scored an amazing second goal because he got the ball from under the ground into the Croatian defense and got past it, even past the Croatian keeper and a goal in the 39th minute.
juya first goal thanks to Julian Alvarez he should have scored two goals because Croatian goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic had committed a foul in the penalty box on Julian Alvarez, and Messi executed it perfectly in the 34th minute, and now the score is Argentina vs Croatia 2-0 and difficult for Croatia in the second half because I think Argentina will prioritize a very tight defense.

The game is very much over for Croatia as Argentine has scored 2 goals in 40 mins of play. Argentina are lucky to get a plenty and Messi doesnt miss much. Croatia took the pressure and gave Argentina some openings Alvarez was the one who scored the second goal. A solo run from Alvarez and perhaps the best goal of WC so far. The first half is about to complete and Croatia have a big task to do in second half. We have seen some stunning goals from Netherlands in there match against Argentina. Lets see whether we see some similar stuff today.

[Docnaster]

I think the Argentina - Croatia game is really likely to end up with penalties. Croatia seem to have the strength to have another similar game to the Brazil one. Brazil were also a very powerful attacking team but they had big problems on dealing with Croatia defense and their goalkeeper at the same time. Livakovic was even the man of the match.

Argentina will need to play a very effective game in attack. They need to be as precise as possible to break the lock of the game early. The more time they don't get ahead the better for Croatia to keep the game balanced.

I agree with you on this. There is a clear tendency that Argentina will do everything possible to register an early goal, seeing that Brazil was out of the win because their best wasn't good enough to afford them an early goal. Their late-hour efforts were just a fight of hope against hope. An early goal will be beneficial and important in this fierce battle.

[Smartvirus]

That is correct - Croatia cannot ever come back from this.
This is huge - Argentina is high morals and Croatia losing all the hopes. But goal is a matter of second.

I don't know of any better team in this world cup that could attempt a come back in this world cup and succeed better than Croatia. With few minutes on the clock after Neymar Jnr found the back of there net in the Extra time of the quarter final, they awoken with a fighting spirit and won back a chance for a penalty shootout. I don't imagine that happening in this game but I think, they could make 2goals. Perhaps Argentina might get to score again but, 2 goals for Croatia is possible.
I don't know how they managed to have such bad defence line in this match and they are paying badly for it at the moment. In the next 45minutes, the might miss there chance to another finals.

[yayayo]

In a few minutes Argenitnie has already decided the game. And 2-0 is still a comfortable lead. They also stood against the Netherlands, but Croatia has not yet had a chance. They will have to play all or nothing in the 2nd half. I suspect that Argentina - France will be the final. Nice clash between Mbappe and Messi. Messi needs 2 more goals to break the next record for most goals ever for the Argentina national team or involvement.

ya.ya.yo!

If they had to show this poor performance they should have let Brazil play the semi final
I still can't get over how the Neymar went crying from the field.
Croatia has to score a goal at least one.

The Game is very much in  Argentina's favour now, they have made their victory confirm by scoring 2 goals on 6 minutes . Now Croatia have to be fierce and active to score goals in second half.
Argentina have made their way to the finals .
