Argentina – Croatia | Summary and result of the 2022 World Cup semifinal

Argentina 3 – 0 Croatia, live | Full Time

Very good!! Welcome to the first semifinal of the Qatar World Cup 2022 that will dispute the selections of Argentina and Croatia. The clash will be played from 8:00 p.m. PST (10:00 p.m. in Qatar) at the Lusail Iconic Stadium. This same meeting already took place in the world Russia 2018 in the group stage, in which Dalic’s team won 3-0.

Leo Messi and Luka Modric they have won it all throughout their career as club players. And yet, surely if you ask either of them, they admit to having the thorn of having lost the final paths of the world Cup (2014 and 2018) with their respective teams. Soccer gives them a rematch today and places both one step away from the final… which is not little.

This is how both teams reach the ‘sixth game’:

  • This is how Argentina arrives: The Argentines ended up suffering to place themselves in the semifinals. They had the match won, but a bit of strategy from the Netherlands at the last minute ended up taking the contest to penalties. There the figure of Dibu Martínez appeared. The South Americans have enormous pressure behind them, but also the confidence that Leo Messi will pull the car.
  • This is how Croatia arrives: Nor was Croatia’s qualification for this semifinal lacking in epic. The Balkans were eliminated at halftime in extra time… but football is wonderful. Petkovic forced penalties and Dalic’s team ended up eliminating super favorites Brazil. The biggest surprise so far in a World Cup in which we have had a few. With the satisfaction of having made history, but with the hunger and desire for revenge for what happened to them in 2018, The Croats arrive at today’s meeting with a dagger between their teeth.

Once the main ingredients of the match have been laid out, we can only hope that both teams give away a big shock and we will tell you here, in Marca.com. Let’s start!
