    • FIFA WC: Argentina storms into finals, after beating Croatia

    By on December 14, 2022

    Doha: Lionel Messi and Julian Alvarez were on target as Argentina put on a clinical performance to beat Croatia 3-0 at the Lusail Stadium to book their spot in the final of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.

    Messi got the ball rolling from the penalty spot just past the half-hour mark for his fifth goal in Qatar to tie with Kylian Mbappe as the top scorers in the tournament.

    Alvarez extended the lead six minutes before the half time whistle and made it three in the 69th minute as Croatia crumbled to a devastating defeat. This will be Messi’s second World Cup final for Argentina, and the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner will hope to clinch the elusive trophy after falling short in 2014. On the other hand, Croatia failed to make it to back-to-back finals, losing to France four years ago in Russia.

    Argentina will now wait for the winner between France and Morocco in the other semi-final to be played today at the Al Bayt Stadium.
