FIFA 2022 world cup

Agreed, Morocco will try to give the best. Because we don't know whether it'll get an opportunity similar to this in the upcoming World Cup. Moreover I find the win of Morocco against different teams were also a tactics. Most of the players aren't playing for any clubs, so there games weren't known to the opponent. About the popular players, the opponents were well aware of their ability and tricks. Let's see how Morocco is doing in its do or die situation.

We are very excited for the final 3 matches. But believe it or not I can't get over with Neymar and Ronaldo
They were so upset on losing the match that the world cried with them.
Such are the legends. They rule the hearts and minds of the people forever

Neymar is only 30 year old and most probably will play ine more world cup and fight again for his dream to get the WORLD CUP, but unfortunately Ronaldo will surely leave the national team after this defeat against Morocco especially with the fact that his situation is very bad right now with clubs so he will focus on looking for the right club to end his Career with

Reports from the media say that Argentina is one of the favorite candidates to win the 2022 World Cup. There are many factors that support Argentina to win this prestigious trophy, including the existence of the superstar, Lionel Messi.

Imagine, so far Messi has proven to have played a very important role in Argentina's steps to the semifinals of the 2022 World Cup. La Pulga has scored 4 goals.

Not only that, Messi also plays an important role as the creator and captain of the team. Messi's movement on the field has helped his team-mates to find space in the Argentinian attack line. Therefore, there have been accusations that Argentina is too Messi-centric, too dependent on Messi. Interestingly, the Argentine players did not seem to try to refute the accusations.

It was not luck, but hard work and great strategy for Morocco. I guess the big teams just assumed Morocco would be an easy win, and then got a surprise defeat.

Indeed. The big teams probably assume Morocco is an easy opponent since Morocco has no superstar and most of them are just average players. Even Bono and En-Nesyri are Sevilla players which are in the relegation zone in La Liga. In theory, these players are not in the best form to play in this world cup tournament. Only Hakim Ziyech and Achraf Hakimi are strong players on this team.

Cristiano Ronaldo was absolutely shocked when they scored and when Portugal lost. He couldn't believe it.

It is probably the last time C. Ronaldo plays in a world cup tournament. He must expect much to reach the final round and win the title. Especially with the current squad of Portugal that has many talented and famous players, it is actually quite strong to reach the final at least. Sadly, Morocco surprised them with En-Nesyri's goal. And Ronaldo can't make a single goal until the match was over. He must be very disappointed.

So I think France has to take them seriously, otherwise Morocco will continue to destroy superstars...

Sure, France must be careful. Morocco isn't a weak team anymore.
I believe France won't make the same mistake as Spain and Portugal. They know how to reach the final since they are the finalist and the winner of the previous world cup tournament.

Argentina team looks very solid this year, it's true they don't have many good players but i always feel something special when i see them playing, the spirit of the team make theme look stronger and that is the thing that make me feel Argentina will finally get this trophy, it will be a fantastic epilogue for messi career with Argentina

Because their teams are good enough to lift the title, yet they lost vs the underdog teams which was shocking for them, their fans and citizens! Additional reason for CR7 is the fact that this is his last chance to play World Cup and lift the Cup. It ended as a catastrophic end for him and his team. Less than 24 hours for the match between Argentina and Croatia. I wonder if Croatia will add another surprise in this World Cup.

Croatia may well present a surprise, because Argentina does not look so invincible and its success is based on the efforts of only two players, Messi and goalkeeper Martinez. But Messi's contribution to the team's success at this World Cup is still much greater. It's hard to imagine what the Argentine national team will be able to do if this day is not Messi's day. Therefore, Croatia has a fairly real chance to reach the final of the tournament again.

All the players of Argentina team play very well but if we say that Messi plays very well in Argentina team then it will be wrong for us because if all the other players play bad then Messi can never do anything by playing well alone. I mean  All players play a big role in a team but I see above all if the goal keeper is bad then the team can never win.

I totally agree with you. The performance of the Argentina team is completely dependent on the performance of Messi and goalkeeper Martinez. At least that's what we see in every World Cup match. And so, if these two players do not perform well, it will be difficult for Argentina to win.
On the other hand, Croatia's main strength is their midfield. Croatia's midfield is one of the strongest in this World Cup. And they are able to counterattack very quickly. This is why Argentina's defenders have to perform very carefully. Conceding a goal against Croatia will make it difficult to equalize the match.

Argentina are currently in a good position so far.  In the past matches Argentina have faced Croatia, Argentina have won more matches.  But now Argentina is relatively stronger than Croatia because their defenders are arranged by Messi.  Lionel Messi's team is also very experienced as a hero due to which they can attack very easily.  And they can create goals themselves without having to think too much about what to do at the gold post.  In this aspect, Argentina is stronger than Croatia.

Please don't forget in their latest match in World Cup 2018, Argentina got a big defeat at 0 - 3 against Croatia. Caballero made a mistake which gave an opportunity for Ante Rebic to score a first goal. Later Modric and Mandzukic finalized that match with other two goals.

World Cup 2018 is a milestone for Ante Rebic and helped that young striker to move to AC Milan. Unfortunately, after the first two impressive seasons, now Rebic lost his position in AC Milan and failed to convince Dalic to call him for World Cup 2022. Not only the missing of Ante Rebic but also other strikers of Croatia in this World Cup are worse than Mandzukic and Rebic four years ago. Anyway, Croatia still shown their combined strength as an united team so that they won against Brazil.

If Argentina can not make difference than Brazil and Croatia play just well enough, they will be able to beat Argentina and have a second World Cup final in history of the small country. Argentina are more depended on Messi than Brazil depends on Neymar and it is their Achilles for the semi final.

The way Argentina made a comeback after the loss against KSA in the first match is really commendable. Argentina has played brilliantly in every match since the debacle against KSA. They even performed very well against the Netherlands. However, in the match against the Netherlands, it was well understood that their defence is still not strong enough. Pakistan defender Acuna will be absent against Croatia. Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni will definitely need to strengthen his defence. If the defence is weak, it will be difficult for Argentina to win.

[Sithara007]

Why there is still an option for France vs Morocco final in the poll? The second semi-final is between these two teams. So only one of them can proceed to the final. Right now there are four possible combinations, with Argentina vs France being the most probable one, and Croatia vs Morocco the least possible. And if there is only one upset, then it can be either Croatia vs France, or Argentina vs Morocco. Anyway, it was surprising to see a team from the CAF featuring in the semi-finals, along with 2 teams from the UEFA and one from the CONMEBOL.

Well, the whole world was expecting Brazil to win the world cup, until Croatia won against them.

I think France does have more chances than Argentina to be honest.

Or maybe even Morocco, whoever wins in that Morocco vs France match will probably end up winning the whole thing.

[Sithara007]

Croatia If they can play well from the beginning to the end, then Croatia team will have a big chance to win. But I think Croatia may not play very well in this match. Because Argentina is number 1 among the 4 teams that are still alive. In position. If Croatia can beat a team like Argentina then I think Croatia will win the final this time.

I guess there are about 50% chances that this match will end up in penalty shootout. And when it comes to shootout, Croatia has an obvious advantage as we have seen till now. But for the other 50% (i.e the match ending without a shootout), Argentina will be having an advantage. My guess is as follows:

Match lasts only for 90 minutes: 75% chance that Argentina wins
Match lasts for 120 minutes: 60% chance that Argentina wins
Match ends up in shootout: 60% chance that Croatia wins

This time, it has been very difficult to make predictions. There have been so many upsets and it was very tricky to place bets.

Brazil had the strongest squad in this World Cup. But unfortunately, they could not win against Croatia. I would say tactical weakness was the reason they lost against Croatia.

The Argentina team is not weak. Especially the performance of Messi and Martinez is very good. And these two are the main heroes of every victory of Argentina. So I would say Argentina's ability to win against Croatia.

The Moroccan team is completely unpredictable in this World Cup. No one imagined that they would qualify for the semi-finals. They are playing very well. And I will not be surprised if the champions of this World Cup are Morocco. Because they have already shown several surprises.

Croatia If they can play well from the beginning to the end, then Croatia team will have a big chance to win. But I think Croatia may not play very well in this match. Because Argentina is number 1 among the 4 teams that are still alive. In position. If Croatia can beat a team like Argentina then I think Croatia will win the final this time.

If your reason Argentina has higher rank among the other clubs, then I could give an excuse on the quarter final if Brazil is on top 1 position among the other clubs, but when the match happen Brazil is lost to Croatia, what you take on this?

Most popular clubs will play to pressure their opponent and to score many goals, Argentina also did this when they faced weak club. Croatia never play with attacking strategy, they always do counter attack.

I don't expect their will score many goals, so I will bet below 1.25 in this match.

For both teams to get to this stage in the competition, it shows that they are good teams. The last time Croatia faced Argentina, it was Croatia that won but this time,  I see a hard game. The dynamic may have changed to Argentina's advantage because of the great form but Croatia are so compact this time, I see penalties. Also wiith Croatia reaching a successive World Cup semi-final virtue of back-to-back penalty shootout victories, Argentina have understandably been installed as favourites ahead of Tuesday night's game.

LOL.. Morocco winning the world cup? The joke is that, with all these upsets we had till now, I can't even discount that possibility. And they are just two wins away from lifting the trophy. But then, that would be an earth-shattering event. No CAF nation has ever managed to enter the semi-final of the world cup. And here we are taking about the possibility that an African nation may end up winning the world cup, defeating all these high-profile teams from the UEFA and CONMEBOL confederations. Well.. this world cup is really going crazy.

Wow, it's interesting I think if in this match still only get a final result that is even below 1.25 because I think this match will probably have a few goals and I believe Messi can provide a good pass and or Messi's movement can open up gaps to be converted into goals. If at normal times, whether it's in the first half or second half, Argentina managed to score a goal, then of course the match would be more open and that would make them have another goal in normal time.
I think the gameplay in the semi-finals will be very different from their gameplay in the quarter-finals, because ending the match faster without extra time will of course be better for them to get maximum rest time.

Indeed, it is not correct to say that one of the teams is the best team, because even Brazil, which is basically the best team with great potential to win the title, can still be beaten by Croatia.
Therefore, I personally only consider them with the gameplay they have, even though so far the non-seeded teams have only played defensively and only rely on counterattacks to score goals. But if the seeded team can make better penetration, then of course the non-sedeed team's defense will also be penetrated.

I don't think, Argentina can win this FIFA world cup title, because there are teams that are more solid than them in this semi final which will be difficult for them to cross to final. We have saw the performance of Croatia from the beginning of this tournament and till now they are still doing wonders which will be some of the advantages they will use to roll out Argentina not to achieve this title. Argentina didn't achieved a lot from Messi in this season, because he really missed many opportunities in this FIFA world cup competition that made many people to believed that Argentina can only drag for second or third position not first position in this season.

Losing Ronaldo and Neymar at the World Cup is like a meal lacking salt, but this is competition, some win and some lose. Now that there are only Four Teams left and there are three more matches to be played, Morocco, Argentina, France and Croatia want to be the best in this world cup. Argentina, who received a challenge from Croatia, really wanted to advance to the final to fulfill Messi dream. Now that Messi is 35 years old, this is the last chance for Messi to achieve his dream before he retires from the Argentina national team.
