and now we will all have to wait and see who will take the other ticket in France vs Morocco.
can't wait for this match to see France slaughter Morocco for more than 1 goal like Argentina did against Croatia earlier, I think many people make predictions for the final later Argentina vs France because France is seeded in the semifinal match later even though there could be a surprise Argentina vs Morocco in the final also not bad, looks like it will, but i hope morocco loses against france because i bet on france
I believe Morocco will take a lesson from what happened to Croatia today.
So basically Argentina let Croatia play in the first 15-20 minutes then it surprised it with a goal then came the second one to destroy Croatia hope, then the third one to end the Croatian dream prematurely.
Morocco will play more defensively and count on counter attack. The problem they have is the presence of Mbappe. They should find a way to stop him and France power will be reduced considerably.
Overall, I am counting on France - Argentina final unless Morocco could lead France to play penalties.
It's true that this should be used as a reference because regardless of anything, even if their current performance has exceeded expectations, they still have to try harder and I feel that the steps taken by Morocco should not follow what Croatia did.
They were overly optimistic by taking the initiative from the start so of course this wasn't great even if Argentina were more restrained.
On the other hand, don't let Morocco do the same scheme tomorrow, especially since we know that France's style of play is always fast, especially on both sides. Don't let them get carried away with the rhythm and have to stay disciplined so they have a little chance.

I don't think a 3-0 was all about getting lucky, they played their might to be on the Finals again but I hope they won't fall short this time just like in 2014. They might not be the favorite in this World Cup but they have the chance now and they're just waiting on who will won on another bracket. More chance to practice and to study opponents that they'll up against in the Finals.
The score from the 3-0 win is certainly not something lucky except for the score of 1 goal from a penalty kick, Croatia's performance has decreased in this match and I didn't expect them not to do anything potential to score goals even in the second half they seemed to be playing in the friendly league without thinking about losing 3 goals . Brazil should have deserved to face Argentina in the semi-finals but Brazil was unlucky on penalty kicks.
Croatia didn't anticipate this loss like this. They were initially controlling the middle and gaining control of the football. Argentina's penalty kick goal altered the course of the game.

Unfortunately, Croatia had a difficult time in today's game. They simply lacked the courage to take chances with their shooting, and their entire defense is weak.

In today's game, Croatia displayed a good midfield, a subpar defense, and an ineffective striker. Am just disappointed by how they performed against Argentinian
I am very happy to see Argentina in the final round which just proofed who the Goat his. I am very happy for getting into the final round why Ronaldo his unable to qualify or take his team to the final round. It is not as easy as we think scaling through the final round without been defeated.
This world cup final is going to be very serious because we are getting to the final stage that many persons had been waiting for to see who is going to reach the final level. It is not an easy journey for the Argentina and I hope Messi is going to do another football wonders as

I understand your point of view, but the GK went out for the ball, missed it, and took the man down in the process; how is that not a penalty? Running into a striker without making contact with the ball is a straightforward penalty. Didn't you notice how quite the GK was? He never protested because he knew what he did was wrong; if VAR had intervened, it could have resulted in a red card, which is why the Croatian players did not push for it. They were aware that it was a penalty and accepted their fate
He didn't run into him, he actually stopped just before Alvarez reached him. Anyway, I don't think it would have been the same decision if it wasn't Argentina on the other side.

Regarding players not protesting, I don't know how you missed bunch of our players complaining to the referee and Kovacic even got yellow card because of that.

As I said before, they were better side and our team didn't show much this game but before that penalty they did nothing and if it weren't for that it would have been much closer game.

But croatia played well against brazil, much different against argentina tonight. Croatian players seem to be losing performance. In the early minutes, Croatia had 54% of the ball, but could not attack. They only played in the back and midfield. Meanwhile, Argentina only took advantage of counterattacks. Messi and Alvarez are quite dangerous for Argentina's front line. Both of them can run fast, making it difficult for Croatian defenders to stop their attacks.
Croatia played well when Argentina haven't scored their first goal, immediately Messi scored the first goal through penalty croatia performance changed and they started playing with pressure to equalize the game. The first goal disorganised Croatia,  this was the reason why it was easy for Argentina to score more goals. Alvarez really tried for Argentina,  if not the two goals he scored for Argentina it would have look as if Argentina won by luck.

I wouldn’t exactly use the word slaughter but yes, I also can’t wait to watch the match between France and Morocco. It would be a very tough game as the Moroccans aren’t a walk over as we’ve seen with their recent games. Though, France is a more better team on paper. France is seen as the likely candidate to win and they’ve got the players as well as the techniques to pull off a win. France is favored to win the World Cup again but would face a worthy contender for the cup, Argentina.
I know I as well as millions of people and fans out there would like to see France vs Argentina clash at the finals of the World Cup. It would be a final to remember!

I earned my bet in Argentina classification  Cheesy
I thought the match would be harder for Argentina with a great chance to go to extra time, but it was a surprise to me

I'll be honest, Croatia can be the 3rd or 4rd, total merits to the players and coach to extract the maximum of each one, because they got there with a single victory against Canada.
Seriously, they did a remarkable feat with the available team.
In my opinion Japan deserved the victory on round of 16, but this is soccer, this is the magical thing.
I was sure Brazil would win against Croatia, but Argentina did the job better than any other team.
It is true, with the players the coach had made an awesome progress. Croatia being the runner of the previous world cup sits as the underdog in all matches. The team got its rewards, but nothing magical happened in the match against Argentina. The team predicted to win the World Cup have left and the popular ones weren't able to make a goal. In such situation it is good progress from Croatia. This time Japan missed the chance and in the next time I believe few Asian countries to progress to the the semifinals.

Croatia got a stalemate on the front lines. although they control the midfield well they are not good enough up front with poor finishing.

Argentina is more favored to win. but beyond my expectations, if this semi-final Argentina will get 3 goals without conceding. Argentina was very successful in making its strategy. revenge for Croatia who also beat Argentina with the same score.

The biggest problem of Crotia is that they left their usual defensive style and tried to posses the ball with Argentina. They seems to have forgotten who Messi is and when I noticed that I saw their downfall coming so quickly. It wasn't long before they conceived twice.
You cannot leave the tactics that brought you this far and begin to experiment another thing.

But after the penalty things started to change.
I am maybe biased since I am Croatian, but I don't really think that was a penalty. Alvarez ran into Livakovic, there was nothing he could do really. But I agree that goal shook us way more than it should have as up until then Argentina didn't create nothing really.
I understand your point of view, but the GK went out for the ball, missed it, and took the man down in the process; how is that not a penalty? Running into a striker without making contact with the ball is a straightforward penalty. Didn't you notice how quite the GK was?

They were aware that it was a penalty and accepted their fate

All in all, Argentina was better (and smarter) team tonight, no question about it. You can only reach so far without a quality striker, so far us even semifinal is a success. I just hope our team can recover from this loss (Modric was extremely disappointed) and prepate for Saturday and game for the 3rd spot so we can at least repeat the success from 1998.

Modric and Kovasic had a good game , the rest were below average today.

I take the same thing like. My prediction for argentina has destroyed croatia was real but it seems like that morocco with france gonna be a very interesting thing. Will messi meet mbappe in the final of world cup? we know that even though mbappe was messi's friend in the PSG but mbappe was very arrogant with him. I do like to see the competition between france and argentina in the final of world cup. Croatia can only defense and controlling the ball until the end of game but it doesn't have way to attack argentina. Argentina can use counter attack to give surprise attack.
Alvarez was doing so well in this match

As expected Argentina was able to press from the start and it was proven by their aggressive tactics. lionel messi et al were able to lead 2 goals in the early rounds which made the situation on the field easy for them to control. croatia seemed weak in this match they lost concentration after the first goal scored by lionel messi where they seemed to have lost strength in defense. Argentina strength in the match was quite impressive, they were able to work well together from the bottom to the front lines. No doubt Alvarez also found something special in this match. He really found his best form.
Argentina will wait for the next opponent between Morocco and France where one of them will accompany Argentina in the Qatar world cup final. messi is one step away from winning the world cup trophy, that's extraordinary.
I would not say that Croatia was weak in this match and controlled the ball for quite a long time, and as far as I know the final figures on possession of the ball in favor of Croatia. Another question is that, nevertheless, Argentina was lucky to score its goal first after a penalty kick, which still would not have been put by every referee and, accordingly, thanks to this, it is relatively comfortable to control the course of the meeting and arrange quick striking counterattacks. It is also worth noting Messi, who scored a penalty and made an excellent assist, and Alvarez scored a double, especially his first goal when he rammed through half of the football field.

well matches in the semi-finals are becoming increasingly difficult to predict. but based on statistical data and seeing from the many predictions that are circulating, of course in the match between France vs Morocco, France is the favourite. and i think there will be a lot of betting on france. However, Morocco cannot be underestimated. So the worst possibility could happen to France. but I hope France is not off guard in the game later.
I couldn't predict today's match right,I thought the match will be a draw till 90 minutes,and will lead to PK after extra time but I was wrong,the Croatia that played Brazil don't have the same spirit in  tonight's match. I guess the Argentines are better than Brazil and didn't allow Croatia to be able to score any goal. They played well but not good enough for qualification to the finals. France should be very careful with Morocco team as they are unpredictable, Morocco has made superstars to shed tears in this world cup. Win against Brazil,Neymare shed tears and against Portugal,Ronaldo also shed tears. Mbappe shouldn't shed tears tomorrow. France is going to be more serious in tomorrow's match so that shit wouldn't happen

I think that the Croatian team that played against the Argentine team today had something missing in them. I do not know if they played out of fear or they came with a defeatist mindset because what I watched from the Croatian team play was beyond pathetic. Obviously the Argentine side we're better and stronger . Now they are left to compete for the third-place position in the tournament they have done so well so far and I hope they leave with something.

Never mind, we all have to admit that Argentina is a better team than Croatia after watching this game. Maybe some pre-match hesitation is understandable as Croatia had the luck and success to reach the semi-finals, but in the end Argentina showed their quality.

I think that in this match it was quite the opposite of the matches of Croatia before. While they were pretty lucky in the match against Brazil and it was kinda undeserved that Croatia advanced into the semi final, i think that today the croatian team was very unlucky. For me they were the better team in the first 30 minutes today and the goals of Argentina came pretty much out of nowhere. Of course with 2 goals for Argentina scored withing only a few minutes it was almost already over at that point for Croatia. Even though they were the better team up to that point. After that Argentina played it very smart and in the end they deserve to be in the final.

I agree. because at the beginning of the first half croatia played very well. but after argentina managed to score a goal through a penalty. from there the turning point occurred. Croatia seems to have lost their good game. and Argentina put it to great use. so Argentina can get the second goal. Mentality is an important role in world cup matches. because even a strong team can lose if their mentality falls. I'm still looking forward to Argentina in the final. which team will they compete with? morocco or france? let's see.
