3rd place play off and WC FINAL

Page 1 of 2

3rd place play-off is pretty pointless, but usually full of goals - averages about 4 a game I believe.

Going for Morocco ...2-1.

Messiteama 3 France1.

Morocco 2-3 Croatia
Argentina 1-2 France aet

I think the 3rd place play off will mean more to Morocco than Crostia, so I'm tipping them to win 1-0.

France to beat the argies 2-1.

I'm sure its not a friendly and that players really fight forbgetting a bronze medal instead of nothing

Certainly not pointless to the Moroccans.
Beating Croatia is no mean feat.
And the Croatians won't want to lose this game either.
Might be a better game to watch than the final!

Yeah, I have noticed the Moroccans being fully engaged with all previous 3rd place play offs. They love it more than the final itself. They probably chucked the semi to play in it.

Deffo Argentina 2-1

In 90.

3rd/4th game is generally a better spectacle as it gives a few new faces a run out and teams lose the shackles of the pressure of it being a must win.

You reach the last 4, credit is due 👍👏🙏

Messi wins a world cup as FIFA wanted
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm just wondering when Argentina will be awarded their customary penalty in the final tomorrow.
I predicted on here that Argentina would get a soft penalty against Croatia if they're struggling to break them down and sure enough they got a pretty awful penalty for Messi to score.
Seen it a few times in this world cup with Argentina and we might very well see it tomorrow. FIFA seems to know what they want in this world cup it seems

*stonewall penalty.

Would like Morocco to win today. Simply because they've tried to win games to get this far. Whereas Croatia have tried to draw games to get this far.

The final is a tough one for me. I've wanted the Argies to win the whole thing from the first minute. But I feel like the achievement of the French has been massively understated throughout this tournament. The number of injuries and the illnesses etc have been insane. Griezeman has had a great tournament but he's done so in a role he would not have been playing had it not been for the circumstances that necessitated it.

Still, I hope Messi gets the big one tomorrow. Just won't be too upset either way

If FIFA know it, defenders know it too and need to stop fouling those pesky Argies in the penalty area
