Argentina are in the World Cup final against Qatar. Thanks to a 3-0 win against Croatia, the South Americans and their supporters can continue to dream of a third World Cup title. Player of the evening was a brilliant Lionel Messi, who scored Argentina’s opener with a penalty (34′). Julian Alvarez scored the other two goals, the second of which came after a solo run over half the pitch (39′). Messi prepared the third goal by Alvarez with a brilliant solo run (69th). The Croatians were the better and more dominant team in the Lusail Iconic Stadium in Doha in the first 30 minutes, but without creating any real chances to score. Only with the opening goal did the Argentines take command of the game, while Luka Modric’s team had nothing to add.
