Croatia, Germany, Spain and Belgium in action — Day 4 of FIFA World Cup 2022 has European flavour to it
Nov 22, 2022 9:56 PM

Argentina were at the receiving end of the 2022 FIFA World Cup’s first upset as they went down to Saudi Arabia at the Lusail Iconic Stadium. The upset was followed by frustration for Denmark as they were held to the campaign's first goalless draw by Tunisia. The second goalless draw could not have come quicker as Mexico held Poland at the Ras Abu Aboud Stadium after Guillermo Ochoa saved Robert Lewandowski's near the hour mark. In the final game of the evening, France, aided by an Olivier Giroud brace, got off to a perfect start with a thumping 4-1 win over Australia.

Now let’s see what Day 3 has in store for us.

The 2018 FIFA World Cup runners-up Croatia will kick off the action on Day 3 against Morocco at the Al Bayt Stadium. On paper, Croatia have the stronger squad, but that was the case with Argentina against Saudi Arabia as well. Just like the other upcoming matches, this one could go either way.

Croatia will try their best to capitalise on the momentum they have gathered after going unbeaten in their last six matches. During the run, the Vatreni defeated Denmark twice two and registered a win and a draw against France. The strong Croatian midfield may just be the key that unlocks the door guarding three valuable points.

37-year-old Luka Modrić is heading to his fourth World Cup after being confirmed in the Croatia squad
