World Cup predictions: Back Hakim Ziyech shots in Morocco vs ... (Sky Sports)

The World Cup draws to a close with Croatia vs Morocco in the third-place playoff on Saturday and Argentina vs France in the big one on Sunday; ...

In their three knockout games, France have conceded an average of almost 14 shots per 90 minutes to a backdrop of a per 90 minutes expected goals ratio of 1.72. But in this instance, there is a footballing god at the heart of a football match for whom the stars are aligning for. However, if you stretch it back throughout history, the average goal count in a World Cup final is 3.2 in 90 minutes. A quick, basic draw down of the total match shots in the last 14 third-place playoffs shows that each match is providing 31.2 shots per 90 minutes. That is a bet to consider but my money will be investing in the shots markets where there are some very juicy prices at odds-against to attack. I'll be backing him to have three or more shots at 13/8 with Sky Bet, four or more at 4/1 and two shots on target at 100/30.

We must remember that before the tournament in Qatar, no African nation had reached the semi-final stages of the World Cup before. But that could still be a while yet.

Croatia v Morocco: World Cup 2022 third-place playoff – live (The Guardian)

That was plenty of fun. Josko Gvardiol and Mislav Orsic scored quite brilliant goals for Croatia either side of Achraf Dari's equaliser.

It beat the flying Bono, hit the inside of the far post and rebounded into the net. The Morocco players are fuming that a corner wasn’t given, but replays show the referee got it right. It looked like they had missed the chance by overplaying, but Kovacic won the ball back on the edge of the D and gave it to Livaja (I think). That wasn’t a foul, but we’ve just seen a replay of the Gvardiol appeal, and it was one of the clearest penalties of the tournament. The interesting thing is that he was offside, but play continued because of the change in the law. He flicked it outside to Orsic, who ran round the ball, on the left edge of the area, and floated an exquisite first-time shot across goal with his right foot. He makes a beeline for goal and slashes a long-range drive over the bar. 74 min Gvardiol rampages into the area, onto a superb angled pass from Orsic, and falls over under a challenge from Amrabat. A cross from the left skims the head of Gvardiol and comes to En-Nesyri, whose close-range shot is superbly saved by Livakovic. He made it for himself with some beautiful footwork, shifting the ball one way and then the other to hoodwink a defender in the area. There was a bit of pushing and shoving from the players on both sides before things settled down. Attiat-Allah beats his man again on the left, but this time he stands up a lovely cross to the far post.

Ivan Perisic drops back to left-back in at attacking XI, with Josip Sutalo startling alongside Josko Gvardiol in the heart of defence "It's crazy to be in the world final," he said. 2 hrs from kickoff: This will be the final game of the tournament at the Khalifa International Stadium. They kicked off Group F with a 0-0 draw that saw Croatia control possession but struggle in the final third against the well-organised Moroccans. 30 mins from kickoff: Will be a delight to see this man one last time on the biggest international stage. Stanisic, Sutalo and Gvardiola are the only orthodox defenders in the side. 23rd minute: It's comedy hour in that Morocco defence, with two botched clearances leaving Modric to claim possession on the edge of the box. A set-piece is taken short and the delivery balloons up off Modric's attempted block and into the box. Again, Morocco give away possession on the edge of their box but the Dinamo Zagreb winger still had so much to do as he lofted a right-footed finish from the left-hand side of the area over Bono and in off the far post. Achraf Hakim and Hakim Ziyech exchange passes and the Paris Saint-Germain full-back is away down the right. 37th minute: In-swinging corner from Hakim Ziyech and Youssef En-Nesyri get to the near-post header. Finally we get a break in play and the VAR saw nothing wrong with that!

They came up against Argentina , who had had problems of their own, losing on the opening day to Saudi Arabia and looking like Messi was crashing out in tears. It is actually game 63 of the tournament - have you been counting? As well as that, he can collect the ball from the defenders and start attacks himself, using his fantastic passing and vision to pick out a teammate and get the Moroccan side moving forward. The European side scored an equaliser in the 117th minute after a fantastic Neymar goal, taking the game through the magic portal to the infamous penalty realm, where the Croatians do their business. Yes, I am going to use all the puns that I failed to fit in against France. His defensive ability is years beyond his age and his capacity to play the ball out from the back is unrivalled by many in Europe's top leagues. Livakovic has been outstanding in all of Croatia's games, making outstanding saves in all the knockout rounds and helping his side get through on the multiple penalty shootouts they have endured. The Fiorentina player sits at the base of the midfield, screening the game like a three-headed watchdog, waiting for any moment to jump in and sweep up potential attack from the opponent. Gvardiol: Yes, I know he got his ribcage rotated 270º inside his body (probably) by Messi in the last game, but Gvardiol has still confirmed what everyone suspected: that he is, without a doubt, one of the best young players in world football. As well as the immeasurable levels of pride that are at stake with today's game, there is also a lot of money. If Gvardiol and Bono start, then they will definitely have a higher chance of maintaining the record. The midfielder has been one of the best ballers of a generation, and he somehow does not look like slowing down.

Croatia claim World Cup third place in 2-1 win against Morocco (ABC News)

Croatia beat Brazil in the quarter-finals, but for coach Zlatko Dalic, Saturday's bronze-medal game was the highlight of their tournament.

"We have now allowed children to dream, dream of being footballers and going to the World Cup. As for the impact in our country, we have set the bar high. Tonight's match and the win is the moment of the tournament for us," Dalic said. "We probably will only realise what we accomplished in Qatar after four years, in the next World Cup. If you remember, I had said if we had lost, it would have been a disaster," Dalic said. "In any case, the last match we played.
