France then booked their spot in the final and gave themselves a chance to make it two World Cups on the bounce when beating Morocco 2-0 in the semi-finals on Wednesday. That was a match they were expected to win, and one they did, easing to the victory more convincingly than the bare result suggests. It was a show of strength from the champions, and we’re excited to say they haven’t yet hit top speed. There’s more to come from this team, and their experience will allow them to reach their potential in the final.
After coming through the group as winners, France met Poland in the Round of 16, which was an easy outing for Didier Deschamps’ men. They won that match 3-1, and the margin of victory could’ve been even more comfortable had they not taken their foot off the gas in the final few minutes. They had proven their points and backed them up with another quarter-final win. This time they defeated England in a thrilling match, going through thanks to a 2-1 scoreline last Saturday. Tchouameni broke the deadlock that day with a goal on 17 minutes before Giroud added a winner after Harry Kane had leveled things up from the penalty spot. The same player then blasted another penalty over the bar to make it 2-2, sending England home.

Argentina, like their opponents, also lost a match in the group stage but progressed to the next round without fuss. That defeat was inflicted by Saudi Arabia and will be remembered as the year’s biggest upset. It would go down in Saudi football history if they were the only team to beat Argentina on their run to become the world champion. And it could happen too.

They look to have every chance and enter the match backed by many respected television pundits.
