The FIFA World Cup winner 2022 will be among Morocco, France, Croatia, and Argentina. Croatia and Argentina had tense matches going into penalty shootouts. Both teams won their respective matches and qualified for the semis. Croatia eliminated almighty Brazil, and Argentina brushed aside the Dutch challenge.

We witnessed a hostile environment in Argentina vs. the Netherlands and will remember the match for a long time. France managed to beat England to qualify after Harry Kane missed from the penalty spot, converting one earlier. Morocco became the first African nation to qualify for the World Cup semis after beating Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal. Morocco has an impeccable defensive record conceding only one own goal in their five matches.
