Argentina takes on Croatia in what promises to be a keenly contested first semi-finals at the FIFA World Cup 2022 at the Lusail Stadium. Both these teams are known for grit and determination and they do not give up however tough the situation might become in a match. Argentina have been one of the best international sides for the past two years and remain the fan favourites to lift the cup. They started off on a terrible note by losing to Saudi Arabia in the group stage but they moved on quickly from that result and although they have not been at their very best in Qatar, they keep getting the job done. Opponents Croatia play a brand of football that is tailor made for knockout football. They remain as compact as possible in the game and have very little to no appetite for risk. Will Lionel Messi Play Tonight in Argentina vs Croatia, FIFA World Cup 2022 Match?

Gonzalo Montiel and Marcos Acuna missed the clash for Argentina as they are suspended following the yellow cards received in the highly volatile match versus the Netherlands. Enzo Fernandez has been brilliant ever since he featured for the side in Qatar and will once again be the main man in the midfield. Nicolas Tagliafico will come in place of Marcos Acuna and he is well capable of handling the pressure of a big game. Lionel Messi is the heart-beat of this side and every attacking play is orchestrated by their skipper.

Dominik Livakovic has been the hero for Croatia in goal, playing a critical role in two penalty shootout victories. Ahead of him in defense is Josko Gvardiol, who is touted as one of the best young defenders in world football. Luka Modric in midfield is the enforcer and the one that makes the side tick. Ivan Perisic has been relatively quiet so far but he will need to be more potent in attack against Argentina. Argentina vs Croatia, FIFA World Cup 2022 Semifinal: Key Players to Watch Out for from Both the Squads.
