[Notizie sportive]The 2022 World Cup in Qatar hosted a third-place match on Saturday (17), with Croatia’s last runners-up facing Morocco, this year’s strongest dark horse. The two armies opened up to the attack in the initial phase: in the first 7 minutes, two backbones, Huadio and Dalì, scored goals. Subsequently, Croatia took the lead with Oxi’s blow in the world wave, and finally maintained a 2:1 victory and entered the top three for two consecutive years. Modi’s last tango won the third place for the country.
Croatia and Morocco met in the group stage, when the sides finished goalless. When the third-place match came, Croatia took away major players like Lovran, Zulanuyu, Bonna Susa and Posoyu, but captain Modi continued to lead the major election. Moroccan back threes Agoult, Masrao and captain Shars, who missed the semifinals through injury and retired from the firing line, are all absent today, while Bonnu, Imberage and Paul Far are still central to the 11-man roster.
Moroccan goalkeeper Bonnu was the “star” in the exciting scene in the first 2 minutes: he almost kicked his goal with a cross in front of the goal, but the ball went over the goal and went out of the backline on the other side. Croatia opened the record just after 5 minutes. At that moment, a free-throw tactic was cut off in the penalty area by Macha, Pelixi headed a double pass into the center, and Hua Dio dived close to the point from 12 yards. However, Morocco recovered quickly after just 2 minutes, at the same free throw opportunity, Dali took the ball back to his own penalty area from Macha and Hua Gaoyu made a push pass.
This battle is as fast paced as the last few games for third place and there are occasional knocks when both teams let go of the kick. Modi, who last played in the final week of the World Cup, had a 25-minute long shot and was hit by Bonnu in time. Until the 42nd minute Morocco made a rebound and was attacked for the second time by Croatia: Ossie shot from the left to kill Bonnu and rebound off the central post. As a result, Croatia led 2:1 with eight shots and four goals in the half.
Croatia continued to attack Morocco in the second half, but Lihuacha failed to seize both opportunities. However, his frontline partner Kamari was injured in the 60th minute and was replaced by Hua Laxi. Morocco also had Paulfar, Dali and Ayame injured in the aftermath. Lihua Gaoyu blocked Anasley’s close-range shot in the 75th minute, before that Hua Dior was suspected of being kicked in the penalty area and was not sentenced to twelve yards. With Morocco finishing the strike in stoppage time, Anasly’s header was only higher and Croatia held on to a 2:1 win to take third place in this World Cup.
