We are nearing the end of the game and Croatia is leading 2-1. Although Morocco tried its best, Croatia played more ball. They can't take advantage of clear goal positions either. It's 87 minutes and the Croats don't look like they're going to score easily. Anyway, being one of the top four teams for Morocco is also a great achievement.

We are nearing the end of the game and Croatia is leading 2-1. Although Morocco tried its best, Croatia played more ball. They can't take advantage of clear goal positions either. It's 87 minutes and the Croats don't look like they're going to score easily. Anyway, being one of the top four teams for Morocco is also a great achievement.
Croatia is now playing very defensively. But Morocco are trying to attack brilliantly so that they can repay the goal. But I think Croatia's style of play suggests that they will play defensively and secure victory.
And that was the very mistake the Moroccans made, thinking they had all the time, not attacking brilliantly right from the very moment the Croatians scored their second goal, because the Moroccans had all the opportunities and chances, but there inability of not targeting the goal post from a distance each moment just like the Croatians did, is what have cost them the chance of not emerging the third position of this year's world cup.. But all the same, congratulations to Croatia for finally winning this game. Those guys really deserve it. 
Croatia led 2-1 at the end of the first half. I all know that the defense is very strong in both teams. And so it will be very difficult for Morocco to score another goal. But the players of both the teams continued their efforts. Both teams are performing very well. So far we have seen only defensive gameplay from the Moroccan team. But today they are not playing defensively. They are counter-attacking a lot. However, the players of Morocco are not able to score because of Croatia's experienced defenders.
Final whistle and final result, Croatia has a second time to end World Cup at a third position, a second time after World Cup 1998. It is big achievement for their country which is small in total area but is big in World Cup history. They are one of few teams can have 1 runner up, 2 third positions in Word Cup. It is more meaningful because the country is very young too.This third position is a good gift and farewell for Luka Modric at his 37 age. He did not say goodbye but we can imagine next four years, he will be 41 years old so World Cup 2022 is his last one. Maybe he can play in Euro 2024 but World Cup 2026 is impossible.
A game for 3rd - 4th place is never fun to play, but once you're playing it you want to win it. A lot of goals at the start of the match. The goalkeeper of Morocco almost scored an own goal. I think Morocco also deserved to finish 3rd after their impressive series of wins, but Croatia is just a very strong team. 2nd in 2018 and 3rd in 2022, that's not a bad result. Tomorrow the final and then the tournament is over.
I would not reduce the confrontation of teams to the confrontation of individuals. Still, this is a team game and no one can win alone without partners. And even more so, I would not talk about who is the best of the players on an individual basis, based on a fleeting tournament consisting of a maximum of 7 games. Haaland is better than both of them, but he does not take part in the tournament.
Everyone can go about making comparison about them both, but in terms of the present I feel like I'll vibe with Kylian Mbappe because of his team work, work rate, dribbles, goals and contributions. I don't Erling Haaland waiting fir his player's to do all the job should be compared to Mbappe who does all round together.
Ten years to come, the problem about Kylian Mbappe is that he may not bring his current level of football to the next ten years else he's club and team mates plays the ball around him.
Currently it's Kylian Mbappe but in the future I think I'll go for Erling Haaland because he'll be doing this back to back scoring goals.
But Haaland is clearly better than Mbappe in the most important indicator for a centre-forward - goals scored. If he paid more attention to dribbling, work in the center of the field, etc. Then maybe he would be like Mbappe but would score less. Individual comparisons in a team sport are always tricky, and that's one of the reasons why it's pointless to reduce teams to individual players.
Croatia won 3rd place at the FIFA 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Congrats!
Croatia 2-1 Morocco
J. Gvardiol 7' A. Dari 9'

Who's Madrid? I don't believe I've heard of that player.

Granted, Madrid is not young, but ...

Both teams have some good players but Modric is world class plus his experience. I'd say Croatia will easily control the midfield and create many chances.
lol just typing this 2 fast goals in
Modric was a world class player but i shall remind you that he is not young again. His stamina might not be the same like the young player who played for morocco. Let's see how old generation from croatia will try to win against young generation from morocco. lol just typing this 2 fast goals in
Croatia may become the most favorite team in this match but we will not see the result until the match will begin very soon.
We are in the last 10 minutes of the match between Croatia and Morocco. The first half ended 2-1 and the match is still 2-1. It should not be difficult to say that Croatia played more dominant in the first half. It was the Croatian national team that had more possession and shots. The second half was a more balanced game, but time is running out for Morocco. I would like it to go to extra time at least.

if you look at the way the two teams play, they are very strong, Morocco replied to Croatia's goal quickly until the score is now a draw, the two teams failed to reach the final, at least they wanted to be the third winner of this world cup, even though they failed in the semifinals yesterday, I think Morocco will win if it happens extra time and penalty shootoutlol just typing this 2 fast goals in
Morocco has indeed been a surprise at this World Cup but that doesn't mean it will be easy for Morocco to win third place but even so, I also hope for Morocco to win whether it's in regular time or in extra time and or on penalties. At least with Morocco being able to score quick replies too, they can prove that they are still capable of providing strong resistance even though the Croatian squad can be said to be better with the experience they have as well.
But while typing this Croatia can score a second goal and it looks like Croatia will win at half time.
With the victory at half time, I will start doubting Morocco to be able to make a goal back in the second half.
Because so far we also realize that Croatia and Morocco have a good defense, so that when one of them has won at half time then it seems like the team that won at half time at this moment is Croatia will likely be able to maintain its advantage until the end of the match.

Fifa World Cup that is being held on Qatar is still impressive. It is first Muslim country to hold FIFA woord cup and also all time high of 220 Billion dollars of investments. And a whole world was shocked.
And also in games Morocco was only Muslim country to win Upto Semi finals and also Saudi Arab was able to defeat Argentina that is so much big tram. And I also enjoyed this FIFA Wolrd Cup 2022.

It's half time already, and I'm really enjoying Croatia vs Morocco game playing right now, because with the look of things Croatia seems to have a better chance of winning this match as they are already one goal ahead of Morocco, have the highest ball possession and plays good team game.. (Croatia 2 - 1 Morocco)... But moreover, you never can tell until the final whistle is blown.
Until the 83th minute Croatia was still winning 2-1 over Morocco, even though I actually favored Morocco more in today match it seems like a bigger chance to get third place is in the hands of Croatia, so far Croatia game looks more convincing in maintaining victory and Morocco is still struggling to equalize as it was very difficult to break through Gvardiol and Perisic denfense who was quite solid, Morocco has made its last substitution and I hope there will be a game enhancement later in the final minutes so that Morocco can scored 1 more to equalize the score.

So far Croatia seems to have a better chance of winning. We had already predicted that this would happen before the game, but we saw that it happened as a result of the first half.
I think both teams can win, we still have half an hour ahead of us. The pace of the game is high and both teams can make mistakes. A 1 goal difference is not a big deal, in just 2 minutes everything can change
I wish Morocco can score so that they will go into penalty shootout and by then we can now confirm the best country to take penalties among them.
If Crotia wins it will be more good history for Africa, so many people would be rooting for Morocco to win in this match.

The Croatia - Morocco match has been really enjoyable so far thankfully. Maybe it is because of being comfortable as of now because of not fighting for the World Cup title anymore. I was hoping to watch multiples goals in 90 minutes and we already have three goals. Orsic's goal was really classy by the way. Bono didn't have much thing to do against that chip goal. The match started really fast as well. Because we watched two goals in two minutes at the beginning of the match.
It was lovely to see Gvardiol scoring a goal as well. His defensive performance has already been impressive and this was a nice way to support it by a goal. He is already on the radar of some big teams.

That's right, events on the ground are unpredictable. Argentina and France both have chances to win, the match will be difficult for both. We will watch Croatia vs Morocco in soon, we can enjoy today's match to watch because they will fight for third place. It will be an interesting match, both teams are equally strong.
Very hard to predict which team that will be winning the game. Im feeling so headache to pick one from both caused by bookies gave almost similar odds. There are no huge gaps with the odds between croatia and morocco. Both have a very good odds at this moment. I have decided to pick croatia over morocco caused by croatia has more experience compared with morocco. Remember that in the last world cup croatia able to be qualified for the final but that's very sad to say that if croatia got defeated by france at final. I think that croatia more capable compared with morocco to winning this game. There are many people have been waiting for another match from the world cup and we will almost reach the end of world cup.
Initially, I thought the Morocco match against Croatia would be very hard to decide, both teams ball possession was not quite different with just a fair margin but after the first half, I am skeptical if the Morocco I once knew will be able to win the third place because after both teams scored their early goals, Croatia change its game and now doesn't want to give Morocco a single chance, Croatia defensive players know how to communicate and the forward are very skilled in pass accuracy, I have this feeling that Croatia will win this match with 3 goals to 1 by the end of the day.
Since from the beginning of the game morocco has been quite nervous in their game but i was surprised as they answered to the Croatian goals immediately after they were scored. Morocco has been a team to watch in this competition and i think everyone over in the African plain wont be dissapointed if Morocco lost the game of the third place to croatia, but not withstanding a game of soccer is still full of surprises so far as the 90mins mark has not been met we might see another wonderful magic from this Moroccan side by maybe equaliser the game and taking it to extra time or even scoring two goals within the minutes that is remaining in the game and winning this match by 3-2 prior to the two goals scored again.
Croatia scored first with a good heading ball, Morocco equalise the goal with a heading ball and the second goal was a shot played in the box. I don't think more goals will be scored in this games since it hasn't been so easy for both teams. Croatia has 12 goals attempt and Morocco has only three with only one on target.
Both teams have some good players but Modric is world class plus his experience. I'd say Croatia will easily control the midfield and create many chances.

Yes, Argentina is a great selection and, if you say that they are favorites, I don't doubt, even when France won the last trophy. But it seems to me that Messi's gamestyle is all about doing his magic, and less about integrating the rest of the team. In this sense, Mbappe is much more a team-player.
That said, both styles are legit, and it is better to see both in a single match than a plain game.
