On the road, except for the three goals conceded in the last match against Argentina, the rest of the matches were all conceded within one goal, and the key core of the game is the control of the tempo of the game by the midfield composed of Modric, Brozovic and Kovacic. Against Argentina, Croatsia's solid midfield put a lot of pressure on the Argentinean side before the defense was breached. In the first match of the preliminaries, Croesusia also held more than 60% of the ball, it can be said that in the control of the midfield, Croesusia is an advantageous party, however, as mentioned in the previous analysis of Croesusia's text, the biggest problem of Croesusia in the powerlessness of the front line, Croesusia's front line performance to break through the defense of the Moroccan defense of the well-disciplined defense is a big problem.
On the other hand, Morocco, which has the best ranking of any African country, faced France in the last match. As mentioned in the pre-match analysis of [Cada World Cup] France vs Morocco, Morocco wanted to limit France's powerful midfielders Mbappe, Giroud and Griezmann, so they adopted the 541 change of formation and made multiple tackles on Mbappe. But it gave Griezmann, who has a high reputation for the Golden Ball, room to play, and the ball was dropped too early in the first half and the match was lost. The biggest issue for Morocco to win this third place match is how to break through the Croats midfield, Croats don't have a powerful striker like France, Morocco is expected to return to the 4141 formation defense, although the defense can be stabilized, but can't break through the defense of the midfield, it will also be a situation of being suppressed, coupled with the fact that Morocco doesn't have a high-speed striker like Argentina and France to break through, the pressure is relatively high on the Croats' defense. In addition, Morocco does not have a high-speed striker like Argentina and France to break through, so the pressure on the Crocodile defense is relatively small.
To sum up, the defense of both sides in this game is very good, so it can be expected to be a low score or even PK battle, how to break through the opponent's defense will test both sides.
