Croatia's results so far:


Argentina XI v Netherlands:


Croatia XI v Brazil:


Apparently Acuna and Montiel are suspended for the semi-final.

The 2 most recent runners-up meet for a place in the final once again. Croatia will no doubt play the same way they did against Japan and Brazil, keep it tight and if it ends up going to penalties so be it. Argentina might want to try and get this won in normal time.

i m going for Croatia, Argentina were bad winners last match.

 

[Protein Junkie]

I hope Argentina win and play France as it’s the best and only chance of an open final.
If it’s Croatia v Morocco May as well go straight to penalties.
That’s my football opinion. I do have one on sentiment which differs.

 

[Bantamgaz]

I hope Argentina win the whole thing off just to put Messi ahead of the prancing pony once and for all

They're always bad winners - even worse losers! But I fancy Hooooooliaaaaaaaan to drag 'em over the line.

Messi is already streets ahead of fake ron.

Want Argentina v France final and Argentina win the whole thing, but think Croatia are wily old bastards and will get through

Croatia older starting eleven than Croesus, and about as much experience. They've got a settled playing style and have graft as well as talent.

I know Argentina have got Julian and the General, with Don Sergio and Zab cheering them on from the sidelines. But even with Messi, they've made very hard work of getting to the Semi final. Macallister has caught the eye, the rest have been non descipt/cunts, see di Maria!

Argentina/ France would arguably make a better spectacle than Croatia/Morocco but whoever gets to the final deserves to be there.

This one's gonna be tighter than a fish's sphincter!

 

[Xhavenjoe]

3 of the semi finalists have played in one of the last 2 finals.
Thought France would get this far but surprised by the other 3.
Don't think Croatia or Argentina are that strong.
Messi and Modric are still the stand out players.
Whichever of these has the superior performance tomorrow will dictate the result

Want the Argies to win it. We’ve had our fair share of Argentinians over the years and they’ve all been good servants (that’s an understatement). I want Messi to finish of Ronaldos career in style.
