This year's world cup clearly gave a big surprise because Morocco entered the semi-finals, when the 2018 world cup, Morocco had to go straight home because in the group stage they were unable to win even once, in contrast to the current group stage, Morocco was able to win the group.
will morocco make a surprise return and be able to beat defending champion france to appear in the final? of course there is high motivation from all the players for that because they are only one step away from getting it. Let's wait for their match, for sure it will be presented as the match we have been waiting for, because France also wants to win so that they can repeat themselves as World Champion.

I don't think Morocco can make France come home and beat it in the semifinals, France has struggled so far to reach the semifinals as well as Morocco struggled to get rid of many great teams until it reached the semifinals, I hope France can win against Morocco and don't let Morocco keep the match a draw and there must be another penalty shootout because France will lose on penalties
But if you think the Moroccan team is weak, you are living in a fool's paradise. The Moroccan team in this World Cup defeated Belgium, Spain and Portugal. And all three of these teams were title contenders. Each had a strong squad. Morocco then managed to send all three teams home. And so I would say Morocco has a chance to win against France as well.
But personally, I support the France team. I really want France to win this match. And I am eagerly waiting to watch France vs Argentina final. Hopefully these two teams can qualify for the finals.
After beating Spain Morocco defeat Portugal in the quarter-finals in the second round, fans are now expressing, 'Why can't we win the World Cup?'' There is no team in the world cup who score against us but one. As they expect the next World Cup, their chances of winning are very high. They slowly rose so high that no one could ever imagine. In any case, the opponent is France again in the semi-final. Though France colonized to Morocco for a long time. The France-Morocco semi-final here takes on a greater significance than just a football match. It remains to be seen who will win this battle field at the end.

It's hard to predict because when it's on the field anything can happen if it's just a guess I would guess Croatia vs France meet again in the final like in 2018.

In my opinion, the semifinals of the 2022 World Cup will be an interesting match because two different teams are teams beyond the predictions of many people, including me. Morocco, which will face France, is the underdog. Croatia will also be the same as Morocco which was beyond prediction against Argentina.Because England have failed to qualify, I have no team to excel other than just enjoying every semi-final match. France will be overwhelmed against Morocco as the African side have played a different strategy in their last two games.
I don't know why the coach felt Ronaldo was unnecessary in the last two games. Coach Fernando Santos did not give Ronaldo enough opportunities to play against Switzerland. Even then, Portugal played well against Switzerland. Perhaps this is the reason why coach Santos does not want to give Ronaldo a chance against Morocco. Morocco's defense is very strong. Coach Santos needed to have players like Ronaldo on the field from the start to break such a defense. I don't know why Santos made such a stupid decision.
That's why I said the coach took too big a risk, so that Portugal had to be eliminated in the quarter-finals against Maroco. The presence of Cristian Ronaldo in the early minutes will actually make it difficult for the Maroco defense to guard him, so that he has free space that other players can take advantage of in attack.Because if Maroco played openly and without guarding against Cristian Ronaldo, the match could have ended differently, although we need to appreciate Maroco's steps to reach the semi-finals.
The worst error Portugal's coach made was not playing Ronaldo during the first half. How could you start the game without starting Ronaldo when you know full well how his presence will affect Morocco's defense
Ronaldo has given Portugal's national team his all. We are aware of his prior contributions to their victories. He's not at his best right now since he's receiving criticism from people all over the world.
His decision to finish his football career in this way is very tragic. The effect he had and the history he contributed to football will go on forever.
And finally the coach had to accept a bad result against Maroco, even though Fernando Santos put Cristian Ronaldo on in the second half, but I think it was too late for them to put pressure on Maroco's defense, admit it or not Cristian Ronaldo is a perfect player. So that his presence in the early minutes will have an effect, especially in important matches that are quite crucial, such as against Maroco.Ronaldo has given Portugal's national team his all.

His decision to finish his football career in this way is very tragic. The effect he had and the history he contributed to football will go on forever.
But unfortunately the coach saw other conditions, so in the previous two matches Cristian Ronaldo played off the bench, moreover this was the last World Cup for the mega star, now he can concentrate on playing in which league, or ending his career in football.
Croatia got very lucky that Brazil, after their first goal they keep attacking and got caught with 7 men in the attack when the Croatians made their counterattack.
Morocco was lucky too, they got a shot on the post(as Schwarzenegger said on predator: if it bleeds, then it can killed) and their back has some injury.
We know that luck one day ends, but both teams need only two more days of luck to be the champions.
Would be nice to see what a meeting between the most defensive teams would be, specially if one team gets an early goal.
Now saying that Morocco will win the world cup is not really that weird.
So many strange and unusual things have happened in this world cup.
Portugal, Brazil, Netherlands, Germany, Spain, all gone.
Maybe your prediction is right because Morocco is the first African country to reach the semi-finals. And with that some good teams like Brazil Portugal Netherlands England all got eliminated from the World Cup. Now if Morocco can beat France then Morocco will go to the final and I think if Morocco qualify for the final they can face Argentina but I have doubt if they can win against Argentina.So many strange and unusual things have happened in this world cup.

To be honest, Morocco really impressed me at this World Cup and they deservedly made it to the semi-finals.
It is interesting that two national teams from the same group at this world cup, in which no one believed and everyone underestimated them, Croatia and Morocco, are now playing in the semi-finals.
Once again, it was shown that the individual quality of players like Ronaldo or Neymar is not enough for victory, but that the quality of the team, team spirit and their mental strength are more important.
Regardless of the fact that everyone is again betting on the favorites, that France and Argentina will play in the final, the real truth is that all these four national teams deserved to play in the semi-finals and that each national team has a good chance to reach the final , and small details will decide.
I believe that Brazil only has Neymar as an elite player and one of the best in the world, another example, Portugal only has Cristiano Ronaldo.
It's not that Croatia is a team with hight quality like Brazil, the crucial point is that the whole Croatian team played well, it was the whole team, they had chemistry and knew how to manage the game and made few mistakes, we can say that they did what "basics" of football, but well done.
A few minutes after Neymar's goal, he shouted several times to his teammates, "don't move forward, let's pass the ball more and hold the game"
Some players did not listen what Neymar said, several players from Brazil were on the attack, Croatia managed to intercept the ball and performed the counterattack, most of the players from Brazil were on the attack, they were unable to return and with that error, Croatia scored, tying the game
This was a grotesque mistake of brazilian team, and Croatia took advantage of this opportunity and managed to tie the game! Totally merit of the Croatian team.

Game the is over they still talk about what Neymar said and the reason why they were not listening to him is still unknown to me, many people believe Croatia didn't do well enough to win that game but they had their own strategy to focus on counterattacks and use their opportunities.
This one was the most tragic moment of this world cup for me, the Brazilian players were very good and Neymar performed well enough to win this game.

The semi-final will be played between France and Morocco. Spectators and history are in dilemma because everyone is talking about France because France striker Mbappé is now one of the very young generation and one of the fastest complete strikers in the world of football. But Morocco has reached the semi finals but if Morocco can beat France then I think they will win the FIFA World Cup. Because all the teams that Morocco defeated to secure the semi-finals were very strong. But history is only in dilemma which of the two teams will win.I also really think about it that the Moroccan national team is really able to reach the final by defeating France, although I support the French, but after watching the Moroccans play, I have serious concerns about the victory of the French in the upcoming match on December 15, and for some reason I also see that Croatia and Morocco will be able to meet in the final, although of course I don't even know how you can predict anything at all at such a World Cup.
This was the last World Cup for Cristian Ronaldo, even the player left the field with very moving tears, I think the Portuguese coach was not quite right to include Cristian Ronaldo in the second half, consciously or not Seleccao das Quinas quite needed Cristian Ronaldo's presence on the field, because it has the potential to make opposing players will make a double defense to guard it.

Cristiano Ronaldo has been wanting to win a World Cup for decades, since 2006 he has been doing his best to get this achievement, but unfortunately this was his last cup.
Portugal had an easy chance of qualifying for the semi-finals. But they missed the opportunity. Portugal lost against Morocco's extraordinary match strategy. After conceding a goal in the first half, Portugal could not get back on track. In the second half, Portugal's players attacked a lot. In the second half, we only saw the dominance of Portugal. Even then, Portugal could not score any goals in this match. The team that scored 6 goals against Switzerland was miserable after not scoring any goals against Morocco. However, Morocco qualified for the semi-finals on their own merits. Their match strategy is really good.

Adding 4 years to the age of Ronaldo will make him 41yrs which is considered old for World Cup. But as a legend the country might decide to call him up even if he will need to sit on the bench till the glory will come it will be fine. Portugal will only be able to do that if Messi eventually wins the world cup with Argentina this year because the rival between Ronaldo and Messi has not been seen in football before.
What is the point of taking a 41 year old player to the team? Ronaldo understands everything, that's why he was so disappointed after the final whistle, for him it was the last chance. He said he wanted to win the cup for Portugal, but I think he was a little cunning, he really wanted to become a world champion, and that's okay, he deserved to achieve this title like no other, but sometimes it happens that dreams remain dreams...

this will make the tension of the match even higher and make the match more interesting.Morocco has now shocked the whole world with the many surprises they have done, and there is also a big advantage in Qatar because there are many fans who support them here, because religion and also the interest of many people towards this underdog team makes many fans make them play even more excited about the match.
but if you look at the team's play, of course Morocco has lost since the time against Spain but they can win the match in their own way, the same is true at this time against France, I don't think there is a more favorite team here because anything is still possible to happen.
I was sad, the whole world imagined that Portugal would be able to beat Morocco easily, but that didn't happen.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been wanting to win a World Cup for decades, since 2006 he has been doing his best to get this achievement, but unfortunately this was his last cup.
Football is a team game when there is a star player trying to chase the title so he must have the full support of all the players in the team, Ronaldo got it only he was unlucky this time if only one of his kicks in the Quarterfinals became a goal Portugal would have been able to make the game through 2x15 minutes extra time and it might have been a penalty shootout but unfortunately it didn't happen, and Ronaldo's shot at that time became one of Portugal's golden opportunities to equalize. He is so sad with the fact that his national team will have to face because it will be his last World Cup, if 4 more years he is still playing and called up coach of Portugal it is very likely he will be bigger as a reserve playerCristiano Ronaldo has been wanting to win a World Cup for decades, since 2006 he has been doing his best to get this achievement, but unfortunately this was his last cup.
