FIFA World Cup 2022: Croatia and Argentina will clash in the semi-finals, players decide strategy
The FIFA World Cup 2022 is now inching towards its conclusion with each passing day. The semi-final race is about to begin in the FIFA World Cup. The first semi-final match will be played between the team of Argentina and Croatia, which will be held on 14 December. After this, on the 15th, the teams of France and Morocco will face each other for a place in the final.
The Croatia team is engaged in special preparations before facing the Argentina team. In this regard, the player of the Croatia team has said a lot. He told that he will not try to stop Messi during the match. Croatia footballer Bruno Petkovic said he thinks Messi should not be stopped alone. Petkovic said that we have not made any plan yet to stop Messi. Usually we don’t try to block any one person. The team’s plan is that instead of focusing on one player, a whole group should be stopped and many players should be attacked. He said that’s why he will not make any plan keeping only Messi in mind. Petkovic said that focusing only on Messi will not solve anything.
Croatia says that apart from Messi, there are some other good footballers in Argentina’s team. In such a situation, the important and performing players of the team have to be stopped. If our team attacks the Argentine team, then a single player will put a lot of pressure on Messi. On the other hand, if the team only keeps Messi in mind, then its result can be reversed.
None of Croatia’s footballers will have to sit out because of any card before the semi-final against Argentina. Coach Zlatko Dalić will get the full team in this match. The Croatian players are our strength in the midfield because Messi also creates games from the midfield. Gottarlby has it that Luka Modric, Mateo Kovacic and Marcelo Brozovic are the three best midfielders in Croatia’s history. On the other hand, regarding the penalty game, he said that when a player scores a penalty goal, he has to be very strong mentally. Actually, there is a lot of pressure on the player during the penalty shootout, in such a situation, mental strength is very important.
