We are done with the semifinals of FIFA World Cup 2022. Argentina and France qualified for the finals by beating Croatia and Morocco respectively. Now, Croatia and Morocco will play in the third-place playoff. The match will be held at 08:30 pm today at Khalifa International Stadium in Qatar.

Morocco has been fantastic throughout the tournament. The players have put on a speculator show and helped their team in reaching the semifinals. Morocco created history by becoming the first African nation to qualify for the World Cup semis. However, France was too good for them in the semifinals. The defending champions defeated Morocco in the semis by 2-0.

On the other side, Croatia has been equally good throughout the tournament. After being runners-up in the 2018 World Cup, Croatian players have put up a stunning performance in this edition as well. But they were outclassed by Lionel Messi-led Argentina in the semifinal and lost the game by 3-0.

Considering the current form of both teams, this playoff match is going to be an interesting one for sure. We have to see which team will have the last laugh. Meanwhile, the final between Argentina and France will be held tomorrow (December 18) at 08:30 pm.
