2022 World Cup third place competition, Croatia 2-1 died Morocco . The two sides contributed a wonderful showdown. Morocco never gave up the game, and was worthy of the biggest dark horse in the 2022 World Cup, and was worthy of losing.
At the beginning of this game, both sides had a strong desire to attack. In the 7th minute of the game, Perisic assisted Gvadior to score a goal. Two minutes later, Moroccan central defender Dari scored a goal and entered a tug-of-war with a 1-1 draw. Morocco gave his counterattack attitude, and Croatia continued to cooperate in 42 minutes, and Livaja assisted Orsic to score the winning goal.
Although there is still a long time to go in the future, Croatia sticks to its goal and does not give Morocco a chance. Morocco's Ennesri missed the chance to head the ball in the last moment, Croatia won the victory, and Morocco is still honored even though he lost, because Morocco made history.
Morocco is the purest dark horse. He eliminated Spain in a penalty shootout, defeated Portugal, which had C Ronaldo 1-0, entered the top 4 to create the best record of the African team in the World Cup, and became the third non-European and South America team in World Cup history.
Yes, this is Morocco's best record in the World Cup history, and it is also the best record of African teams in the World Cup. Morocco has proved their own value. It is always a pity to lose the third place battle, but Croatia is also a strong team in the past two World Cups, the runner-up of the last World Cup and the third place of this World Cup. Morocco lost very well and they fought to the last minute of the game.
did not reach the final and compete with the French team for the championship again. It is indeed a pity for Croatia, especially the 37-year-old Modric . Although he does not think this is his last World Cup journey, we never thought that Modric could return in the next World Cup. He is 37 years old and is already an over-age player for football players, but Modric still maintains his peak performance.
The masterpiece of the last game of the World Cup career, Modric did not score or assist, but he was still the core of Croatia's offense and defense. He succeeded 67 passes and 62 passes, with a 93% pass success rate. You can tell how strong Modric is. Croatia's team combat ability depends on Modric as the core axis. After winning the third place, Modric hugged coach Dalic to celebrate winning the third place. The same is true for the entire Croatia team. Although it is the third place in the World Cup, it is worth celebrating for Croatia, because in the eyes of many people, Croatia has never been a strong football team. Modric expressed his dissatisfaction in the interview: Croatia should not be considered a dark horse, but should be considered a super power in football.
Europeans love football is deeply rooted in their bones. Modric's love for football is also worthy of recognition. As a midfielder at the historical level in football, Modric is an artist on the green field. Winning the third place is both happy and regretful for Modric and Croatia. Is the 2022 World Cup really the last journey of Modric's career?
We should not believe that 41-year-old Modric will still play in the World Cup. Even if he can still play, it is probably not the peak level. For Modric, it is a torment. Modric, who both the runner-up and third place already have, still wants to play in the World Cup, and perhaps still long for the highest Hercules Cup , but even Croatia is a super powerhouse of football, Modric is destined to miss the Hercules Cup in this era. Now he wins the third place. Modric and his teammates do not cry, but still celebrates emotionally. It can be seen that Croatia in the Modric era has regrets, but more joy. This is the best memory of football in their generation.
Modric participated in the World Cup 4 times and won 1 runner-up and 1 third place. Croatia has indeed worked hard, and Modric's World Cup is also brilliant, because Croatia's level depends on Modric's emergence, but geniuses always say goodbye one day. Just like now, Modric completed his curtain call.
