The players of the Argentina national team celebrate qualifying for the World Cup final after a 0:3 victory over Croatia (Instagram)
Argentina secured their place in the 2022 World Cup finals in Qatar with a crushing 0:3 victory over Croatia, but who will be their opponent in the battle for the World Cup?
Tonight (Wednesday, 21:00) the world champion France and the surprising team of Morocco will meet at El Beit stadium in the second semi-final.
While Morocco already made history by becoming the first African and Arab team to qualify for the semi-finals, now they want to register another sensation, perhaps the biggest in football history.
However, its opponent is the French team, which aims to repeat an achievement that currently belongs only to Italy (1934 and 1938) and Brazil (1958 and 1962): a second consecutive World Cup victory.
From now until the opening whistle, here are all the updates for the second semi-final in Qatar between France and Morocco.

"Following the recent restrictions imposed by the Qatari authorities, Royal Air Morocco (RAM) regrets to inform customers of the cancellation of their flights operated by Qatar Airways" - this is how the national airline of Morocco announced today, thus leaving thousands of local fans with a ticket for half The final against France - and without a flight.
Royal Air announced after the qualification that they would set up 30 new flights to transport the public to Doha, but in the British "Guardian" it was reported that only 14 were scheduled, and the aforementioned announcement heralded the cancellation of seven of them. The airline announced that it would refund customers their money.

In the French newspaper "Laquip" it was announced that striker Olivier Giroud, who during the World Cup in Qatar became the French national team's all-time goalscorer with 53 goals to his credit, may soon enjoy a tribute that only the greatest have received - a stadium named after him.
The small tour, currently in the fifth division in France and who gave it the stage for two years to show itself in the minor league in France (in the 2008/9 and 2009/10 seasons), is considering the possibility of changing the name of its stadium and calling it after Giroud, the son of 36.
This is a proposal led by the former mayor of Tours Christophe Boucher, who in the past also served as the president of Marseille.
In Tour uniform, Giroud scored 38 goals in 69 appearances and thanks to those two years he was upgraded to Montpellier.
