FIFA 2022 world cup

[ginsan]

Today's match is a big one between the defending champions and the first African team in World Cup history to reach the Semifinal stage. Morocco will want to make history by becoming the first African team to win the World Cup, while France will try to win the World Cup for the second time in a row, so the match will be interesting but difficult to predict.
Morocco's prayer is to continue their luck in the World Cup, while France's main goal is to win the trophy again. Let's see how today's game goes.

Interestingly, if Morocco can qualify for the final, this is a history that will always be remembered in their country and even the world. the unseeded dark horse team will be able to beat the defending champion team, isn't this a surprise for us to enjoy. I myself will choose Morocco in the match later but just for fun there are no special bets for the match later.

france which is dominated by high quality players like mbappe and giroud will be the stage for them in the match later, no doubt many believe that france will win easily in today's match.

There were no surprises in yesterday's semifinal match. As I expected, Argentina won and in a way avenged the 3-0 defeat in the previous world cup. Thus, Argentina became the first finalist in the world cup. Finding 7 hits in 9 shots, Argentina won the match with 3 goals. Today, the other semifinal match will be played. I don't expect any surprises in this match either. France will be the winner.

Last night I watched in disbelief that Croatia would lose easily against Argentina, an absolute victory for Argentina since the first round match and it was very difficult to pursue because the ball possession was completely controlled by the Argentinian players. Argentina against France is everyone's dream final, while Argentina against Morocco is a new final for everyone. Apart from all that, I hope Argentina can win the world cup this time and of course as a good career ending for Lionel Messi.

Yeah, it's surprising that Croatia was able to defeat Brazil but couldn't beat Argentina. Anyway, if we compare the remaining teams, France seems to be the favorite, and I think they have a good chance of winning this World Cup. At the same time, France shouldn't underestimate its upcoming opponent because Moroccan players have already proven that they can beat such strong teams as Spain and Portugal.

[Igebotz]

The penalty truely ruined the whole game, we were having a very strong contented game that both sides were looking determined to win with Croatia having a little more momentum but everything changed after that early penalty that was givens to Argentina, and frankly speaking that wasn't a penalty. What do you expect the keeper to do at that point when he came out to block the ball. He didn't make any attempt to foul the player instead the player saw him and went towards his direction then they both collided.

If the keeper had touched the ball, it would not have been a penalty, but in this case he didn't and he obstructed a goal scoring opportunity. If the keeper had touched the ball, regardless of how hard or soft the contact was, it would not have been a penalty. It's a basic rules

From the way the world cup has been going I won't be surprised if Argentina wins it, they have been the most favored side in this world cup with 5 penalties in 6 games and that has been the most at any world cup.  What's even the function of the VAR if decision like this can't be reviewed. The keeper stood his ground, the ball wasn't even hit with enough force to go into the net and was easily clearable. Tha penalty spoiled the whole game yesterday and took out all the energy from the Croatian players, they didn't deserve such treatment just to favor Messi.

Argentina are not the most favored team, they have been the most in-form team and they have been a level above everyone else, the only defeat in two years came in the first game against Saudi Arabia, so I don't think they are favored when they have controlled all of the games they have placed so far. For the record, they have only had four penalties (scoring only three of them), two more than Portugal and England, both of whom have had two in four games. And for VAR, I believe it has been effective thus far; Argentina had three goals disallowed against Saudi Arabia due to the smallest offside margin.


Croatia's only 90-minute win came against Canada, when they came back from a goal down to win 4-1. Croatia was without a doubt the worst team in the semi-final, as they had no game plan yesterday and controlled the game for only 20 minutes with zero shots on goal. We've seen the Netherlands come back from a two-goal deficit to tie the game at 2-2 against the same Argentina team. BTW, why are we all acting like the PK goal was the only thing that got them to the final? They scored two more goals, Croatia was no match for Argentina, and we should not make excuses for failures. BTW, the VAR officials were Portuguese, and if they didn't think it was a PK, they could have asked the ref to rewatch it.

There has never been a world cup without controversy it's a 4 years gap competition so it's always painful when a team gets knocked out. Complaints like this are common but it won't matter after the final result.

An African country is playing its first semi-final in history and if it makes it to the final, it will be history.  Because no one has ever thought of Morocco as a favorite team.  But everyone thinks that France will go to the final with the kind of famous footballers France has.  But this assumption may be wrong.  Many unexpected results can be observed in this World Cup.  Where teams like Brazil and Germany are knocked out.  If France were knocked out, it would not be a surprise.

If you follow Croatia more closely, you wouldn't be that surprised. I'm Croatian so I always follow our national team matches. The problem with Croatian national team is that they tend to fall apart in situations like yesterday's penalty and especially after the second goal. After that goal it was pretty much all over for Croatia. They tried attacking more in the beginning of the second half but that only opened them to Argentina's counter attacks which resulted in the third goal. Luckily there weren't more goals scored by Argentina because that would make very hard for a Croatian team to rise up for the bronze medal match.

I think that Morocco is more dangerous for France than Croatia was for Argentina. They play super defensive football. It's not easy to attack against a team that is concentrated only on defense. However, one goal in Morocco's net should be enough reason for them to open up and then I guess we will watch an interesting match.

[indah rezqi]

The stage is set for the Almighty game between France and Morocco, and this match will settle a lot of assumptions and give direction to we're the cup is going since the finals are just a few days ahead. It's hard to predict the team that will win tonight's match even as bookmakers gave Morocco high odds and that doesn't limit the possibility of them winning tonight's match.

Morocco for all Arabs and Africans, it is possible. I will support Morocco to reach the final regardless of the quality of the players. France is really in top form and there is no doubt about the ability of their players. Mbappe, Dembele, Giroud are very dangerous attackers and have been very difficult to stop so far. However, I hope Morocco can still play their luck against France and I think more than 50% of users here are also expecting it in the final.

It's now 1 hour go to match and Morocco has @5.80 odds to win. France are the favorites where the odds are very low but either way I expect some miracle for Morocco at this World Cup.

I don't expect any surprises in this match either. France will be the winner.

What's more, Messi has succeeded in shifting Mbappe's position on the list of top scorers for the time being, so of course Mbappe will not hold back from scoring goals in today's match against Morocco. With that said, I personally have no doubts about France and it looks like the surprise for Morocco will end here.
Although indeed, we will never know what will happen, but I really don't think I doubt the record on paper for France's victory.

But yes, I also believe and still admit that Morocco will still be able to play well and after all, nothing can really guarantee a team will win or lose.
So even though this is a match between a seeded team against a non-seeded team, this match is also a very interesting match to watch because basically, Morocco still has a chance to be able to provide unexpected resistance in this match.

[famososMuertos]

It is no secret that FIFA is corrupt from top to bottom, but the fact that VAR is not used in this situation speaks volumes for the fact that Croatia had no chance in that match. According to all valid rules that apply in football, there is no question of a penalty kick but a foul on the goalkeeper - although most of you shit spammers have no idea what that means.

../image/...,,*

"An important detail for which a penalty kick should not have been awarded: The goalkeeper's right foot is on the ground, and the contact is inevitable due to inertia. There is no foul, the contact was inevitable" - wrote on Twitter the Mexican with refereeing experience at the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan, who currently works as a referee analyst for ESPN Deportes and ESPN Mexico.

That penalty and an opening goal for Argentina changed the match. It's hard to say that if there is no penalty, will Argentina win the match. Maybe they will win it at the end too but we might feel doubtful that what will happen if they were not given that penalty. Will we see another drama from referee to give advantage to Argentina?

Is it true like Zlatan Ibrahimovic said "This World Cup was reserved for Argentina and Messi". Believe it or not, soon we will know in the final match.

I get your point but at Majer's current age, Modric was already the Croatian best player twice. Honestly I don't think he could be as top as Modric someday.

I agree Majer does not have good talent and skills like Modric and he looked like too stressful and less confident in this World Cup.

Majer did not show well with some substitutions in this World Cup. He and Modric are like Messi and Julian Alvarez as these young players used to consider Modric and Messi as their idols. In this World Cup, they have chances to play with their idols. Another one is Rodrygo and Neymar in Brazil squad.

Even if Croatia would have done all they could to hold Argentina down to penalties at the end of Extra time, that penalty awarded changed everything it changed it all entirely.
Croatians came out attacking looking to recall Argentina back to make it a tie but that opened them up and Argentina utilized the chances they had.

The Second goal of the game was brilliance from Alvarez and the third was brilliance from Lionel Messi who dribbled and created that chance for Alvarez to score.
So far Messi and Argentina has come and done well, that penalty was rigged no arguments but they deserve it, what Ibrahimovic says and Rooney doesn't matter. Argentina deserve the  World Cup.

No, no and no.

 Croatia couldn't do what they did several times coming from behind, that is, they know what it's like to overcome an adverse scoreline but they couldn't.

Three goals ahead and a performance that does not highlight any clear opportunity on the part of Croatia on goal.

Argentina's second goal... an amateur football goal, they let a player stumble from midfield, Croatia!  there is no forgiveness, that they score a goal like that,  please, let's discuss how the great defense of Croatia allowed to score that goal.

They third goal, come on!  Messi signed it, a masterpiece... so ok... Argentina won with that goal, so... it was that good?

It seems to me that giving an analysis based on that idea of ​​the Penalty or the referees, really! Argentina was forceful, won and Croatia lost.

It is the schizophrenic equivalence of any Spain or Portugal fan to say that Morocco reached the semi-finals with luck.

However, one goal in Morocco's net should be enough reason for them to open up and then I guess we will watch an interesting match.

Both Morocco and Croatia have almost similar pattern in this world Cup, there strongest position have been the midfield and defence, although Morocco are slightly better in attack than them. But i see Morocco finding it hard to defend there goal today because an electricified Mbappe will cause the defence some problem.
Where Morocco might have an edge today is the midfield because of the absence of Rabiot, he has been instrumental this world Cup so I see space opening for Amrabat to exploit in the match

It's hard to predict the team that will win tonight's match even as bookmakers gave Morocco high odds and that doesn't limit the possibility of them winning tonight's match.

I think today could be a repeat of yesterday's game. France will probably win and Morocco won't be able to score. Although a win for France is even more obvious than yesterday's win for Argentina. Morocco have played well against Portugal and Spain, but France are much stronger than those teams. I have no doubt that Argentina and France will play in the final.

I think so too, it will be similar with yesterday match, the favorite will win with a score of more than 2 maybe. France is much more capable to win, France with Mbappe will go to the final against Messi with their Argentina national team. If this is true, the final in this world cup will be an unforgettable memories match for this two PSG strikers.

Argentina sealed their place in the final with a thrilling 3 nil victory against Croatia last night. It was one of the preceding winning for Leo Messi and his teammates, the game was easy for the Argentines and the their opposition didn't record a goal and Martinez kept a clean sheet in the semi final. Leo Messi have equal Diego maradona's record for tally of eight assists in the world cups. He's brave and there are rare players like him, he's always there to deliver his team and Argentina are very lucky to have a player like Leo Messi.

It was a very good game, I watched it in a public place while having some food and there were a lot of people supporting Argentina.
in spite of Argentina loose beginning Against Saudi Arabia, they turned it around very well yesterday as a reminder to the world why they are considered among the best ones in this world cup.

In my opinion, Messi looks and performs very well as player even though he is 35 years old.

Argentina played their best game yesterday. Many said Croatia's defense and midfield were too strong, making it difficult for other teams to score against them. But when Messi is at his best in a match, the opponent doesn't have much to do. France is definitely strong in today's match, but I think Morocco will also play well in France. Let's see how well Morocco can play in this match and how much luck will help them to fight against strong opponents like France.

Messi really wants to win this trophy, he will do anything to win it. At last night's match, everyone respected him once again. Despite his advanced age, he continues to run as if he were in his 20s, the 3rd goal was scored entirely thanks to him. I'm sure he will show a similar performance in the final match. Argentina is really lucky.
I'm looking forward to the results of tonight's match

The world cup is the only trophy that the living legend has not won and he will be looking forward  to correct the error that happened the one time he was so closed to winning it at the hands of the German side in 2018. Messi has virtually won everything as a  player except for the world cup which he will be once again given a shot at it this time around in this Qatar world cup. Messi and his teammates have really done well in this world after a shocking defeat at the hands of the arab country @Saudi Arabia and after that loss the Argentine have really buckled up and play their best and have really deserved a place in this years final.

But one obstacle still remains in messi dreams of winning the trophy this year which i think is really going to be the Frenchmen and thats if they manage to conquer the Moroccans in their semi finals meet up. The france can really poss a serious treat for messi and his teammates if they are to meet in final.

[iamsange]

Ikr. Comparing to Rodrygo and Alvarez who playing in big clubs, Majer is not that good. Honestly Croatia don't have great young generation.

We really understand Croatia's situation, especially about the quality of the players. Modric and Perisic and other players have helped Croatia reach the semifinals, but their failure to reach the final isn't too bad if we compare the quality of the two teams between Croatia and Argentina.

I don't think about the referee's mistake in leading the match which then benefited Argentina got penalty for their first goal. I don't want to criticize him even though his decisions can impact a lot of things. Croatia didn't really excel on the basis of quality even though they had high possession throughout the match. Argentina have sealed their fate in the semi-finals and they have given their best so far in the World Cup. Now Argentina in the final, and we will wait for the opponent.

Argentina deserved a ticket to the final after beating Croatia. The Argentinian players played very well and were organized. Rodrigo De Paul and his colleagues in the midfield managed to dampen the Croatian midfield led by Luca Modric. Despite losing statistically, Argentina played very effectively, so they were able to score three goals. Lionel Messi successfully led his colleagues to the top match and he deserved to get man of the match in that match.

Argentina not only won yesterday game ,they have also showed their best performance specially Messi the way he helped his team in scoring goal is outstanding.  Now today's game is the deciding one Morroco bs France a difficult game and that will decide who'll join Argentina in final.
France has higher chances of winning and Morroco has surprised the world with performance and game .

Croatia plays different football against Argentina. The players tend to lose track of their positions and lack anticipation when the Argentinian players counterattack. Alvarez managed to threaten the goal and also managed to make a mistake from the goalkeeper for Argentina's first goal of the game. I agree Argentina deserved to be in the final, after all Croatia struggled to find goals to score with only 2 shots on target in 90 minutes.

The key for Argentina's victory in that match was a well-organized defense and Alvarez and Messi were eager to score. These two striker succeeded in destroying Croatia's hopes of reaching the final, the contribution of these two players managed to make Croatia lose 3 landslide goals.

[Die_empty]

I think so too, it will be similar with yesterday match, the favorite will win with a score of more than 2 maybe. France is much more capable to win, France with Mbappe will go to the final against Messi with their Argentina national team. If this is true, the final in this world cup will be an unforgettable memories match for this two PSG strikers.

I also have the same feeling that the beat team would win today. France would control this game from the beginning to the end except there are issues like injuries or red card. But I am sure this match would not have more than two goals like yesterdays match when I regretted Croatia's win against Brazil. I am sure that Brazil would have performed far better than Croatia. Nevertheless, every football match is unpredictable, just one mistake can give Morocco victory.

Argentina played their best game yesterday. Many said Croatia's defense and midfield were too strong, making it difficult for other teams to score against them. But when Messi is at his best in a match, the opponent doesn't have much to do. France is definitely strong in today's match, but I think Morocco will also play well in France. Let's see how well Morocco can play in this match and how much luck will help them to fight against strong opponents like France.

It was very clear that Croatian defense and midfield were not at their best in that match. They allowed the Argentines to punish them for their defensive blunders. The Argentina side made use of the counterattack to penetrate the once very solid defense. And the magical moves of Messi was a vital ingredient that led to their victory. But today's match might be different. As an African, Morocco is our hope to prove to the world that we have really developed in the area of football.

in spite of Argentina loose beginning Against Saudi Arabia, they turned it around very well yesterday as a reminder to the world why they are considered among the best ones in this world cup.

In my opinion, Messi looks and performs very well as player even though he is 35 years old.

The defeat in the Arabia-Argentina match was purely a coincidence. They missed too many goals because of offside, which was a loss when a lot of things went wrong. Messi has not lost any of his tribes, and he can do whatever he wants very easily, as in the past. It looks like he can play at this level for a few more years. I had a lot of fun in yesterday's match, I think it will be fun today in the France-Morocco match, it's almost time for the match to start and I'm excited to say that.

[longyenthanh]

In this case I have no elements to underestimate Morocco btw because indeed with their current achievements of course they are extraordinary and can even beat Portugal and Spain but we can also say a comparison about the squad isn't it even though in this case the squad won't be too made an impact in the 90 minutes but we also have to be aware that France's statistics are definitely better.
Their chances are still very big and indeed, if you look at the final, my ideal version is indeed Argentina and France.

Of course, if France can escape with a victory then the meeting with Argentina will be a historic meeting. The France vs Argentina scenario is definitely highly anticipated, becoming the biggest meeting venue. Or conversely, if Morocco is the one who makes it to the final, this will also be a big party for the African continent, which will certainly be history because Morocco is the only African representative at this time.
Beating Spain and Portugal is a fact that needs to be watched out for, even though Morocco's defensive style is quite tight, maybe there will be a rotation of attacks that will be focus this time.

The stage is set for the Almighty game between France and Morocco, and this match will settle a lot of assumptions and give direction to we're the cup is going since the finals are just a few days ahead. It's hard to predict the team that will win tonight's match even as bookmakers gave Morocco high odds and that doesn't limit the possibility of them winning tonight's match.

For this match, it is clear that Morocco path will be very difficult, after all, France has positive points, namely in terms of an attack on a fast scale, and Morocco's position is always defensive. Most of the games I saw when Morocco played were to defend and then if there is a chance to take advantage of counter-attacks then that's all they have. Here, of course, France must be prepared by layering a solid backline.

Morocco has always played a conservative game.  He scored when he got a chance.  They try to minimize their chances.  And after scoring, goes completely defensive.  But France is no less.  France is the champion of the last World Cup.  Where M Bappe, Griezmann, Dembele are the fastest players in the attack.  And it is very difficult to stop them.  They can produce results in the blink of an eye at any moment.  Not only that, but France's entire team is agile and fast.
