The main time of the meeting, which took place at the “Lusail” stadium, ended with the score 2:2. The Argentines turned out to be more accurate in the penalty shootout – 4:3.

Spanish referee Mateu Laos showed 13 yellow cards in regular time which was a record for the 2022 World Cup.

– A lot of joy. We weren’t going to go into extra time, let alone a penalty shootout. But it’s the quarter-finals, we brought them forward, that are impressive.

Argentina play match after match with the same intensity, with the same desire. I was angry. I don’t want to talk about the referee because then they punish you. FIFA cannot appoint a referee who is not up to the task.

Croatia? He is a very difficult opponent. They have great players, they know each other very well. They have the same coach since the last World Cup, and this is the World Cup semi-final, it will be difficult, – Messi Clarín quotes the words.
