WELCOME TO THE 2022 WORLD CUP MEDAL WEEKEND! After one of the most memorable four weeks in the history of the biggest tournament in sports, it’s time to find out who lifts the trophy. But first, we have to decide the order in which the two semi-final losers will finish.
Which brings us to the Khalifa International Stadium in Al Rayyan where Croatia and Morocco will fight for the bronze medal in what promises to be a very fun third-place playoff. These games are almost always a guarantee for entertainment as both sides have nothing to lose and want to leave the tournament with a victory after the disappointment of the semi-final defeat.
Morocco have already clinched the highest-ever finish for an African nation in the World Cup, but Barça loanee Ez Abde and his teammates would no doubt love to end a dream month in Qatar with a top-three finish. Croatia would also like to finish third and follow up on their second-place run in 2018 with yet another deep run against all odds, and after the poor performance against Argentina in the semi-final they will surely look to play better and leave the tournament in high spirits.
