Most people will only have eyes for the final on Sunday. The 3rd place is much less important than winning the championship. It is true that if you come 3rd you have won bronze and if you come 2nd you have lost gold. France has already become world champion once with the most players of this team 4 years ago. That was then a very one-sided final, I think the difference in level will be a lot smaller now. Especially the elimination of Brazil was very disappointing in the match against Croatia. They owe that to themselves.

This is different for Croatia and Morocco. I think that both countries would very much like to finish 3rd and then you will also close the World Cup with a positive feeling. You should try to forget what happened in the semi-final, but Morocco could claim victory. Croatia lost without a chance, those are also things that can play in the players' heads. I think Modric will also retire after this World Cup. Age is starting to play a role and he is now also around 36. Then you have had your best years as a top player. I don't expect him for much longer at Real Madrid either.

ya.ya.yo!

Before the start of the match at the top of the Final between Argentina vs France. first, tomorrow we will watch the match between Croatia vs Morocco which will determine which team will sit in third place at the 2022 world cup. in the previous match in the group stage. the match between Croatia and Morocco ended in a goalless draw. and I'm quite curious which team will win tomorrow's match. because there will be no draw in tomorrow's match. the match must end in the victory of one of them.
I am just as curious as you are, but I am going to be giving it to Morocco, personally, I think they have improved very much more than they were when they initially faced Croatia.
They have learnt a thing or two from defeating Spain and Portugal and I think that confidence will drive them into defeating Croatia tomorrow to earn their world cup third place title.
So I give it to them because I know they will not want to disappoint their fans at this stage, they've worked really had to get here and would not want to mess up now.

Messi and Mbappe have been the most impressive players of the World Cup so far in terms of their goal and assist statistics. Messi is ahead of Mbappe by only one assist. However if we compare the performances in the last games I can say that Messi has been much more in the spotlight. He has made a big impact on Argentina's reaching the finale.

Messi will have another big responsibility against France as well. Because it won't be easy for them to break France defense at all. Messi is one of their biggest cards they can use to do this here.
Messi and Mbappe are playing in PSG league and are competing in finals this year , both of them are the fastest ,strongest players of this fifa world cup they are unstoppable and they have their unique style of game so everyone is waiting for final day and their competition.

Everyone is looking forward to the power net between these 2 players, but maybe we won't notice much of that on the field? They are both in the offensive line, they may not meet at all on the football field. That wouldn't surprise me honestly. Both also have a completely different functions within the team. But Mbappe's respect for Messi could still cause France problems on Sunday.
Your last two paragraphs are quite convoluting.  👉 "but mbappe's respect for Messi could still cause France problems on Sunday".
Are you saying Mbappe may likely perform below expectations because of Messi's effect on the field? If yes, I don't agree with you. Mbappe is currently at the beginning of building his football portfolio. In other to achieve this, I don't think he will leave any stone unturned while playing against Argentina, cuz himself, he also dreams to be like Messi or greater than that.

I wouldn't be sure there won't be many goals. Of course usually such serious games are played very carefully to avoid mistakes, but Argentina and France are two attacking teams. If a quick goal happens, one of the teams will have to take their chances. And the previous games have been played with an array of goals. France scored two, Argentina three.
Anything happens, remember the final of Germany and Brazil, there were a lot of goals. Both teams are attacking, so perhaps the teams will not be careful for long and will try to score an early goal. This will be a great advantage because the enemy in such a situation will have to open up. I think that both teams will score goals, and there will be total over.

I think so especially now that Messi and Mbappe are competing with each other to become the top scorer both of them have scored 5 goals
They must be trying to get a perfect victory Trophy + Golden shoes and so far only Messi has consistently scored goal in almost every match
I agree with you both teams to score seems an interesting bet in the final.

It cannot be closer than the level of the teams from the final. Both teams have a 50% chance of winning, according to the bookmakers. Okay maybe it's 51-49 in favor of France. I think we're going to see a game with quite a few goals. The last thing you want as a team is to fall behind. Keep the 0 as long as possible and then see if you can occasionally come out dangerous on the counter. The French have more danger in the attack than Argentina, which has to rely mainly on Messi. If Messi is not having his day, there are too few players who can stand up to make a difference in Argentina.

I don’t know why I feel Morocco where so satisfied with what they had already and that’s reaching the semifinals, this makes them the first African country to do so and not just that they also gave hope to other low football continents like Asia.

I feel that contentment made them lackadaisical and the hunger wasn’t there any more. They had very good chances to draw level with France but none taking, the French goals were avoidable especially the first goal. In general I am proud of Morocco but I think they had more in the tank.

I am actually going to keep Morocco ahead in this game. They have surprised a lot of people including me with their performance in the World Cup. And the performance of Croatia against Argentina, on the other hand, was not very convincing. I know that Croatia got a little unlucky in that match. But I expected a better performance from Croatia all around. I am going to say Morocco will be able to win the match. But we also have to remember that Morocco has a few injury problems. I think the match is going to end up in a drawer and finally will be decided by penalties.

With the likes of "En Nesyri" of Morocco, who scored the goal against Portugal, making Ronaldo cry, I'm sure he will likely do better tomorrow against "Croatia", because to me, Africa deserves a space in this year's world cup, and Morocco have been performing excellently well in it's previous matches, of which I hope to see them win tomorrow's game by faith. Because it will be very nice if the world cup ends this way..
First position = Europe (France)
Second position= South America (Argentina)
Third position = Africa (Morocco)

They’re reports that few France first team players have picked up a virus that is sweeping through the France squad. Raphael Varane and Ibrahima Konate are the latest players to fall ill in the French camp, with a bug causing flu-like symptoms spreading through the squad. Both Konate and Varane's absence would be a bitter blow for them. I think it was the same reason why Rabiot and Upamecano didn’t feature in the match against Morocco. France Coach will need to find a way around this to keep the squad safe as they have about 48hrs to the finals.
This is bad news for the French national team which will play the final match. I hope there are concrete steps from the organizers or hosts to quickly deal with what happened to the French players.
If in these 2 days they don't get better or even get worse then this is a very big loss for them. This is a very important final match, on the other hand the health of the players cannot be ruled out either. So once again I hope there are quick steps taken by the organizers.

This news doesn't sound good. However, what can the organizers do in this case? Of course, if most of the French players aren't able to play due to illness, then the organizers will most likely move the final match to another day. Honestly, I hope this won't happen because it would be completely unfair to Argentina. So let's see if France can find the best solution in this situation, although they don't have much time until the match starts.

The chances for Croatia to finish 3rd have increased considerably in the last few days. At first the odds were quite close, but now Croatia is suddenly the clear favorite. Could that be related to a certain aspect? I can't imagine Morocco playing with a B team. They want to conquer the 3rd place at all costs. And if you come 4th you end up with no medal at all. Which African country can ever say they finished 3rd in a World Cup? We will not see that again for decades to come. Morocco had a high favor factor of all African countries.

well, I still think Argentina will win
I have seen Leo Messi very angry and very aggressive in interviews
In my opinion, before retiring he wants to take the world cup with him
and there is, I wish him with all my heart
he deserves it
The problem is not just whether he deserves it or not, but when Argentina's game isn't any better, especially when it comes to scoring goals from France, this obviously won't change anything.
Leo is always ambitious because the World Cup actually completes the collection of what he has received during his career in football but in this 90 minute match it is clear that he will win.
The current odds are quite interesting because 2.80 is clearly the same opportunity, meaning the dealers are also a little confused about the two teams that will play.

I've seen a variety of questions about who will win the trophy between Argentina and France, and the match is now between Messi and mbappe. France has more manpower to win against Argentina, and even if the odds turn in Argentina's favor, I still support France and Messi fans, who are so confident in their goat which I know they will be disappointed. I've also seen concerns about Croatia playing against Morocco again after playing to a draw during the group stage.
Before now I have always feared and respected the France team but after watching France versus Morocco I discovered that the strength of the France team lies on Mbappe and griezman. It also made me understand that France team is playable as Morocco were able to snatch the possession from them both halves. It is just that they were unfortunate to concede an early goal and if you sincerely watched Argentina versus crotia you will understand that the Argentina team can play very good football and the presence of Messi is a great advantage in the middle.
Well, Morocco is also a very strong team, after all, not just on the way they knocked out Spain and Portugal, also two of the strongest teams, world champions and European champions in previous years.
Yes, probably Morocco was a bit unlucky and they should have scored at least one goal, but luck and Lloris, were on the side of France.
Mbappe is one of the best players in the world right now and probably second only to Messi. Griezmann is also in great form, his contribution to the wins is huge, his assists have helped pass more than one opponent.
Yes, France's defense is not the best, as well as Argentina's, so they both conceded quite a lot.
The final will probably not be an exception either. 
There is one last step left for Argentina and Messi and their self-confidence has risen a lot. We can say that they are in the championship mood right now. But either France or Morocco were to make it to the finals, I wonder what will happen against the teams that can force the argentina defense with high balls and physical strength, and what will happen against these teams. Argentina was expected have a hard time for both of these teams. Now they will face the mighty France. They were arguably the best team so far and Argentina surely will have a hard time.

Instead of just thinking about the top scorer, which team will win the third title, first or second title, but have any of you thought about the possibility of who will be the best player in this World Cup?

I think about Luka Modric, he looked like he deserved the title in the end. I think he is the best midfielder in the world right now, even at 37 years old he can still really be expected to make an important contribution to the strength of the midfield game. Croatia should be proud to have a player like him.
Modric won as best player in 2018, but he reached the finals on that Cup. Maybe the best player of 2022's World Cup is going to be Messi or Mbappé, because they are the stars reaching the final game and without them I guess it wouldn't be possible for their teams to reach so far. Modric is an excellent and decisive player for Croatia, like Neymar was a decisive player for Brazil on a same match, although I think both of them showed a similar performance, not being able to take their teams to the next level. Therefore there are better candidates for the award.

That's true Mbappe regard for Messi will definitely be observed in the game and in field but Messi will not leave thus opportunity of his lifetime to lift the world cup trophy.
He'll give his best to win the match so is France they will use same defense and attack strategies to win the game.

Still, the 3rd place is something special in football. It is true that it is less appreciated. everyone would rather become world champion, but 3rd in the world would also be great for Morocco. The bar was already higher for Croatia, as they already came 2nd 4 years ago. Croatia will also not be dissatisfied with the 3rd place. In Morocco it is party anyway, regardless of the result of the match. Most eyes will be on the game in the final on Sunday, that's what it's all about now. Would Messi retire after the title?
