World Cup final; Revenge or Deja vu?

The biggest stage of the World cup is set and two great nations were able to reach the height every country that participated in the competition dreamt of, reaching the final is a step away from glory, and either France or Argentina just has to take that important step to why the world is gathered at Qatar.

The two countries started the competition on different forms but progressed to the knockout round on the same level. Argentina's loss to Saudi Arabia gave a lot of punters a huge doubt about the South American side but they change the narrative of their presence in Qatar by rising above all criticism to reach the final of the 2022 World Cup.

France on the other hand showed lots of potentials from the first match and yet a lot of people doubted their ability to defend the cup. They won the 2018 World Cup in Russia truly but the likes of Portugal, Brazil, and others showing how prepared they came by crushing their opponent before crashing out of the competition made people choose countries other than France to reach the final.

As we have it, the French side is one step away from defending the title and they can join the likes of Italy and Brazil to be among the countries that have won the title back to back.

The semifinal was predictable to an extent and lots of punters were only on the lookout for possible upsets like we have seen in the previous stages of the competition.

Argentina outsmart Croatia by neglecting possession for goals and it paid off for them. They pushed for a goal at every chance they got and scored their highest number of goals in a single match at the ongoing world Cup. The same Croatia side that dumped Brazil out of the competition was expected to give the Argentinean a tough time but it was the other way around.


The French national team also chased after goals because they know how dangerous the Africa nation can be.

Defeating Spain and Portugal wasn't a small task, and looking down on Morocco could cause them troubles so they didn't play the fun game we have seen in previous matches.

Morocco surprisingly dominated the French team but they just couldn't get the job done in the final third.

Among the teams who made it to the semifinals, Morocco pulled the biggest surprises all through the competition, and aside from France going on to win the title if they defeat Argentina, the Moroccans deserve to be the best team that played in the 2022 World Cup.

It isn't completely over for Morocco and Croatia even though they lost the semifinals, they still have the chance to fight for a World Cup medal. The match is unpredictable and Croatia can go on making the same mistake they made against Argentina. If they go on dominating and not pushing enough for goals, the Moroccans might take a good advantage of them.

The challenge in the final is on a whole different level, France and Argentina would be giving nothing but their very best to win the title.

It would be the second time Argentina is meeting a country that humiliated them in Russia. First was Croatia, Argentina lost to Croatia in the group stage of the 2018 World Cup but they took revenge in Qatar.

They will play against France, another country that kicked the South American side out of Russia in the round of 16 back.


Will the Argentina national team take revenge against France just like we saw them did against Croatia or will it be a repetition of what we saw in Russia?

Judging by their head-to-head, Argentina stands the bigger chance of winning the World Cup but that can't be depended on because France defeated Argentina in the last World Cup despite the head-to-head.

They are on both levels judging by their stats at the ongoing World Cup and it will require lots of individual brilliance for either of the countries to win the World Cup. Argentina has scored 12 goals so far and conceded 5 goals while France has scored 13 goals and conceded 5 goals as well.

A lot has changed for the Argentinean squad since they last met in Russia, they have fresh legs that have contributed to their success so far in Qatar and it would be a different challenge for the French side in the final. It wouldn't be an easy one for Argentina as well because the French team has grown from being among the young squad at the 2018 World Cup into a very experience side.

It would be the clash of giants and I hope the best team wins without any form of poor officiating in the match.

I agree with you, Morocco just lacked that end product in their attack, they have nothing to be sad about they gave Africans hope and showed the continent can also compete in the world cup.

That's right, Morocco has shown Africans that we are capable of achieving a lot on big stages like the World Cup and I wouldn't be surprised to see other African countries challenge for the next World Cup

I thought it was going to be the other way round but they (Morocco) did surprise me and probably everyone.

Will the Argentina national team take revenge against France just like we saw them did against Croatia or will it be a repetition of what we saw in Russia?

The game could go either way, revenge or no revenge.

Morocco did the unbelievable and both countries at the final are capable of winning the final.
