It will be Argentina-France final of the World Cup. If Messi tired a little to overcome Croatia's resistance, Mbappé's task was more complicated for his teammates to beat an indomitable Morocco thanks to goals from Theo Hernandez and Kolo Muani. On Sunday at the Lusail Stadium, not only the World Cup will be at stake, but also the top scorer title, as both Messi and Mbappé are the two first in the ranking with 5 goals each.

The challenge started well for France, who found the advantage goal through Theo Hernandez in the 5th minute, while then there were 3 good scoring opportunities with Giroud and Mbappe, but without being able to materialize them.
On the other hand, Morocco was stopped by Lloris and the post in two attempts at the end of the first half. The second half had a lot of nervousness and little pace, as the Mexican referee was quite sparing with the cards for the Moroccans.
And when the tension was growing, Deschamps threw the striker of Eintracht Frankfurt, Kolo Muani, who, after an action by the duo Thuram-Mbappe, sent the ball into the net with the first touch for this meeting, sealing France's qualification to the final.
Both finalists have won the World Cup twice and on Sunday evening they will seek the third trophy in history, as all eyes will be on the Messi-Mbappe distance duel, with one of whom will celebrate in the end.
