I've got:

Argentina 2 - 1 Croatia
Morocco 1 - 0 France in extra-time.

Morocco 2-0 Argentina in the finals.

That would be something and a half.

But I really want Croatia

I have got
Argentine 2 - 1 Croatia
France 4 - 1 Morocco

But will be very delighted if Croatia beat Argentine and Morocco beat France as this means the WC winner will be a country which has never won before

New ball for the semi finals and finale. I might have to buy it. I really like this World Cup and the new color scheme for this ball looks sick. It'll be a nice souvenir for this memorable world cup with still 4 games to be played (if you include the 3rd place game).

If you are wondering, the left means "The Journey" and the right means "The Dream"

Argentina 1 - 1 Croatia for 120 min.
Croatia wins it on penalties. Again.

Morocco 1 - 1 France in regulation.
Morocco scores winning goal in regulation and wins it 2 - 1.

Croatia - Morocco world cup final - that's a prediction for another day.

Now, time to bet some money ... and lose it.
Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

If Croatia wins it, I'm happy for the country and for Modric. Fond of Croatia and I spent a memorable summer there back in 2007.

If Argentina wins it, I'm happy, as a Benfica fan, for Otamendi, Enzo Fernández, and Pablo Aimar who is part of their coaching team.

If Morocco wins, I'd be happy for a solidly assembled and breathtakingly well coached team winning it for a new continent and language, and giving multiple traditional footballing powers their comeuppance in the process. We'll all learn how to say "World Cup Champion" in Moroccan Arabic.

If France wins... Meh. :dontknow: I don't care.

Yeah, I think a lot of people feel the same way about that.

Rooting for Croatia, for Modric and Perisic.

Do the yellow cards from the previous rounds carry over?

If a player got a yellow the last match, getting another yellow would eliminate him from a possibLe Final match?
