Argentina and Croatia kick off the World Cup semis

⚽The first round of the World Cup semifinals: Argentina will play against Croatia tonight at 9pm to battle it out for a spot in the World Cup final match next Sunday. Whoever comes out on top tonight will head to the final against the champion of tomorrow’s semifinal game between Morocco and France. The losers from today and tomorrow’s semis will then compete for third and fourth place.

The two teams struggled in the first rounds of the World Cup: Croatia tied with Morocco, and Argentina lost to the Saudi Greens, which was the biggest shock of the tournament. The “fiery” Croatian team did not compete against the tango dancers much, but the last match together left Messi and his team with bitter memories after they were defeated 3-0 in Russia’s 2018 group stage. The two teams qualified together, but they also lost to France — Argentina lost in the Round of 16 and Croatia lost in the final match.

Today in the Dubai Super Cup: A friendly match between Arsenal and Milan kicks off at 4pm.
