Representatives of one of the republics of the former Yugoslavia tried to play open football against the South American team led by Messi. That is, they responded with their own attack to someone else’s. Looking ahead, the adventure failed, the mission turned out to be impossible.
The Croats, who challenged their formidable opponents in the first half, exposed their rears. And they ran into two sharp attacks from the Argentines. One of which ended with a penalty scored by Messi, and the second goal was scored from the field by another sharp and skillful forward – Alvarez. In the second half of the match, he also scored the team’s third goal with a pass from the same Messi after his cool individual pass, an elegant pass. 3:0 – Argentina is the first finalist of the planetary tournament.
Thus, the Argentines fully returned the favor to their opponent for their defeat with a similar result four years ago at the Mundial in Russia.
What about the Croats? They never created anything at the gates of Argentina. They were simply not allowed to do this. Despite the fact that Croatia has a high passing culture, it is still noticeably inferior in individual skill and technique. All other things being equal, this was a decisive factor in Argentina’s success. Now on December 17, the Croats will play for bronze against the loser in the semifinals, France – Morocco.
…And the Cheka-OGPU continues to “stamp” its fairly accurate assessments and forecasts. We foresaw, for example, that Argentina would defeat Croatia – 2:0, the South Americans scored more goals.
Today we are watching the second semi-final France – Morocco.
