Bet on Messi or the Modric? Who do you think will get into the World Cup championship match?

The whole world is paying attention to whether the last dance of the Argentine football king Lionel Messi can lift the World Cup in Qatar as he wished. In the top 8 matches between Argentina and the Netherlands, the key match still depends on that man. Messi helped the team get a 2-0 lead by assisting his teammates and scoring penalty kicks in the first and second halves. Although the Netherlands miraculously relied on Wout Weghorst to score 2 goals alone to tie the game and drag the game into a playoff. In the end, under the excellent performance of Emiliano Martinez, Argentina won the knockout battle 4-3 and advanced to the semi-finals.

For Croatia’s top player Luka Modric, this is also likely to be his last World Cup. Against Brazil in the top 8, Modric played well in the regular season and the playoffs, exerting a strong influence on both ends of the offense and defense. Especially in the 117th minute, he assisted teammate Bruno Petkovic to tie the game and bring the game to the knockout game. In the end, Croatia relied on goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic to take the game 4-2. Livakovic also became the third goalkeeper who blocked at least 4 goals in a single World Cup knockout match. 

On December 14, 2022, Argentina and Croatia will meet in the semifinals to compete for tickets to the championship game. This is regarded as a 55-wave duel by the outside world. Both teams are at the top in terms of their strength and status. The key to the difference may lie in the performance of the two stars Messi and Modric. Now the important question is, who will you put your chips on?
