Whether you are a fan of soccer or not, the FIFA World Cup 2022 is an event that you should be watching out for. Not only will there be a lot of great games, but you will also get to see some of the most talented athletes in the world.
Brazil vs Argentina clash
Among the eight teams vying for a spot in the FIFA World Cup 2022 final, the Argentina vs Brazil clash will be a tough one. Both teams have star power and fans from all over the world. But their rivalry is also frosty.
It has been 37 years since Argentina last clinched a World Cup final. Back then, they were one of only eight nations to have held the trophy. In 1937, Argentina beat Brazil 2-0 to win their first title. But they would eventually go on to lose to West Germany.
Argentina and Brazil have only met four times at a World Cup. Their last meeting was in the final of the 2021 Copa America.
Argentina and Brazil have both won two matches apiece at a World Cup. They have both drawn one match and lost two. They have both made it to the round of sixteen. They are drawn in Group G. But the Netherlands are standing in their way of a dream semi-final against Argentina.
Morocco vs Spain
Despite a 2-2 draw in the group stage, Morocco and Spain still managed to play out an exciting game. Ultimately, it went to penalty kicks. In the end, Morocco won and qualified for the quarter-finals for the first time in their history.
Morocco’s first goal came early in the game. After a stout defensive performance, Morocco finally broke through. Goncalo Ramos converted a penalty kick after 16 minutes. In the second period, Spain tried to break down the Morocco defence. However, they weren’t able to create many chances.
Morocco also had the opportunity to score with a penalty. However, Yassine Bounou did well to save Carlos Soler’s spot kick. Then, Bounou saved Dani Olmo’s free-kick.
Morocco had two great chances in extra time. In the first, Walid Cheddira was close to scoring but his shot was saved. In the second, Abdelhamid Sabiri hit the post.
Spain dominated the first half, but they struggled to create chances. They had five minutes of good chances without creating a goal.
