Qatar - Host the twenty-second World Cup, in 2022.

When FIFA executives met in Zurich to decide on who would host the 2018 and 2022 World Cup Finals, Qatar was probably the biggest surprise to many outsiders.

The Qatar bid finished above those from Australia, Japan, South Korea and USA.

Kick off times (Central European Time)

Saturday, 3rd December

Netherlands Netherlands vs USA USA
Khalifa International Stadium

Attack and counter attack was the overall theme for the first forty-five minutes of the first Second Round game in the Khalifa International Stadium at Qatar 2022.

Goal After falling behind to a Memphis Depay goal in the tenth minute, the Americans weren't shy to give it a go and get back on level terms before the break.

Goal Unfortunately, this played into Dutch hands as Daley Blind doubled the advantage seconds before the half-time team talk.

Total Football was back.

Second Half

USA continued to search for a goal after the break.

Goal With plenty of passion and a lucky flick, the Americans were back in the game, with a quarter of an hour still to play.

Goal The game was turning into a classic; as another goal for the Dutch followed, just five minutes later.

Could this finally be the year for the Never won the World Cup Land?

Final Score:
Netherlands Netherlands 3 - USA USA 1
1:0 Memphis Depay (10)
2:0 Daley Blind (45 +1)
2:1 Haji Wright (76)
3:1 Denzel Dumfries (81)

Argentina Argentina vs Australia Australia
Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium.

It's the AA match in the ABA Stadium; Argentina vs Australia in the Ahmad Bin Ali.

With no real direction and no sense of urgency it looked like we were in for a long evening of stalemate, extra-time nothingness and nail-biting penalty misses.

Goal That was until Lionel Messi - playing his thousandth match - sent a grass-cutter through the outstretched leg of an Australian defender and the stretching arm of a bemused Mathew Ryan, in the 35th minute. Australia tried to keep it tight but couldn't do it right. Switch off and Messi switches on.

Second Half

Goal A more pressing Argentina doubled their advantage in the 57th minute when Julián Álvarez pounced on a mistake by the seemingly sleep-walking Matt Ryan.

Goal Sometimes you need a little bit of luck, and Australia got just that with thirteen minutes to go. Craig Goodwin will take the deflection any day of the week.

A crucial Lisandro Martinez tackle blocked Aziz Behich's attempt to equalise shortly after.

Then it was the turn of Emiliano Martínez to deny Australia right at the very end. A much better second-half by far.

Final Score:
Argentina Argentina 2 - Australia Australia 1
1:0 Lionel Messi (35)
2:0 Julián Álvarez (57)
2:1 Craig Goodwin (77)

Sunday, 4th December

France France vs Poland Poland
Al Thumama Stadium.

Goal Scoring his 52nd goal, Olivier Giroud became France's leading goalscorer when he took the initiative against Poland, just before half-time.

Second Half

Sometimes you just have to keep plugging away and believe that the opening will come.

Goal France did that to good effect with a free-flowing move that caught Poland square; Kylian Mbappé showing his class yet again to add the haute couture finishing touch.

Goal Kylian Mbappé just scores for fun and makes goals out of almost nothing. Totally in a class of his own.

Goal Robert Lewandowski scored a consolation penalty, at the second attempt, after alnost 100 minutes on the clock.

Final Score:
France France 3 - Poland Poland 1
1:0 Olivier Giroud (44)
2:0 Kylian Mbappé (74)
3:0 Kylian Mbappé (90 +1)
3:1 Robert Lewandowski (90 +9 pen)

England England vs Senegal Senegal
Al Bayt Stadium.

As the game slipped slowly towards half-time, it looked like Senegal could have felt they had the edge.

Goal Indeed, they did; until a swift break down the left saw the ball pulled across low into the Senegal area and Liverpool captain, Jordan Henderson gave England a lead they might not have deserved.

The Senegal players obviously felt the same and couldn't believe the situation they were in. So much so that they struggled to start the ignition and release the hand-brake.

Goal In the last action of the half, England captain Harry Kane finished off another swift England attack from the edge of the box, to get off the mark in the Quatar 2022 World Cup Finals.

Second Half

Goal Nerves were settled after Bukayo Saka made light work of England's third goal, shortly before the hour.

Final Score:
England England 3 - Senegal Senegal 0
1:0 Jordan Henderson (38)
2:0 Harry Kane (45 +3)
3:0 Bukayo Saka (57)

Monday, 5th December

Japan Japan vs Croatia Croatia
Al Janoub Stadium.

Goal A well worked corner on the right resulted in a muchl-deserved lead for Japan just before the break.

Second Half

Goal Croatia levelled ten minutes after half-time. An important header from Ivan Perisic; to take the game to extra-time and penalties.

Final Score:
Japan Japan 1 - Croatia Croatia 1 (aet) (1:3 penalties)
1:0 Daizen Maeda (43)
1:1 Ivan Perisic (55)

Croatia won on penalties; Dominik Livakovic saving three.

Brazil Brazil vs South Korea South Korea
Stadium 974.

South Korea were given an education in the art of football at the Stadium 974.

Goal With Pele watching from his hospital bed, Brazil put on a four-goal, first-half extravaganza to remind the Brazilian legend of the good old days.

Final Score:
Brazil Brazil 4 - South Korea South Korea 1
1:0 Vinícius Júnior (7)
2:0 Neymar (13 pen)
3:0 Richarlison (29)

Tuesday, 6th December

Morocco Morocco vs vs Spain Spain
Education City Stadium.

No goals in ninety minutes.

No goals in extra-time.

No goals for Spain in the penalties either.

Well: the first. from Pablo. Sarabia hit the post; the second from Carlos Soler was saved and so was the third; from the experienced Sergio Busquets.

Morocco take the prize; a place in the quarter-finals.

Final Score:
Morocco Morocco 0 - Spain Spain 0 (aet) (3:0 penalties)

Portugal Portugal vs Switzerland Switzerland

Quarter-Finals

Friday, 9th December

Croatia Croatia vs Brazil Brazil
Education City Stadium.

A lively start from Croatia and Brazil gave the first quarter-final at Qatar 2022 a promising feel to it; a great feast of attack and counter-attacking football for the appreciative fans.

No playing around with the ball at the back, just get the supporters on the edge of their seats.

Second Half

Without a goal to show for all the action in the first forty-five minutes though, the second-half continued in much the same vein.

Substitutes from both sides couldn't break the deadlock either.

Not for want of trying. Both sides fought for every ball, pushed for every chance, robbed each other of half-chances and didn't take their foot off the pedal once.

It would be unfair to say that Brazil had the edge; but they probably did.

Brazil were frustrated, not by the negativity of Croatia but by Croatia's total ambition and perseverance.

No dance routines for Brazil this time out; and a second game of extra-time for Croatia at the Qatar 2022 World Cup Finals.

Croatia had the best chance towards the end of the first period of extra-time.

Goal Then tragedy struck for Croatia, as Neymar came to life and managed to hold off his defender before rounding Dominik Livakovic to level the record 77 number of goals scored for Brazil, with Pele, at the end of the first period of extra-time.

Goal Croatia deserved their equaliser with a break down the left; a low cross into the middle finished off with a deflected left-foot shot from Bruno Petkovic.

And on to Penalties.

Croatia's Dominik Livakovic saved Brazil's first penalty and Marquinhos hit the post with their fourth one.

Having gone first, Croatia scored all four of their penalties. Neymar didn't get the chance to take a penalty at all.

Final Score:
Croatia Croatia 1 - Brazil Brazil 1 (aet) (4:2 penalties)
0:1 Neymar (105 +1)
1:1 Bruno Petkovic (117)

Netherlands Netherlands vs Argentina Argentina
Lusail Stadium.

Nothing like the same intesity was shown at the start of the second quarter-final.

Goal The deadlock was finally broken in the 35th minute when Lionel Messi's left foot through ball was gratefully received by Nahuel Molina.

Goal A sublime spot kick from Lionel Messi doubled Argentina's lead and looked like enough to seal a place in the semi-final for Argentina, against Croatia.

Netherlands brought on the big men and looked for long balls and crosses to get back in the game.

Goal A powerful header from Dutch substitute, Wout Weghorst, seven minutes from time gave Netherlands a glimmer of hope.

De Jong almost equalised with minutes to go. Argentina started to look worried.

Goal Then the Dutch did the unbelievable, in the very last minute of the ten extra minutes added on to extra-time, due to heated encounters from the sidelines, an inspirational free-kick by Teun Koopmeiners was rolled into the Argentinian penalty area; for Wout Weghorst to slip the ball past a stunned Lautaro Martínez.

Into Extra-time.

After all the excitement in the final minutes of normal time, the return to a passing game was like watching milk turn to cheese.

Lionel Messi started to look tired. What was Argentina without an engine in the engine room?

Then the intensity returned to Argentina's game with five minutes left and Enzo Fernández saw his shot hit the post just before the dreaded penalty shoot-out.

Penalties

Emiliano Martínez saved Virgil van Dijk's lead attempt.

Messi made no mistake.

Then Martínez saved again; from Steven Berghuis.

Lautaro Martínez made it two for Argentina. The scene was set.

Final Score:
Netherlands Netherlands 2 - Argentina Argentina 2 (aet) (3:4 penalties)
0:1 Nahuel Molina (35)
0:2 Lionel Messi (73 pen)
1:2 Wout Weghorst (83)
2:2  Wout Weghorst (90 +11)

Saturday, 10th December

Morocco Morocco vs Portugal Portugal
Al Thumama Stadium.

Cristiano Ronaldo was again on the bench for Portugal, at the start.

Goal After forty minutes of whistling encouragement from the Moroccan fans, Morocco finally registered the goal they so desired; Youssef En-Nesyri leaping above Costa's flapping hands to head in a high ball from the left.

Bruno Fernandes could have leveled for Portugal, just before the break, had his cross shot from the right of the area dipped enough instead of glancing off the crossbar.

Second Half

In an attempt to get back on level terms and stay in the tournament, Portugal made a double substitution in the 51st minute; Cristiano Ronaldo and João Cancelo on for Rúben Neves and Raphaël Guerreiro.

Hat-trick hero against Switzerland, Goncalo Ramos, had been pretty quiet for the first hour.

A big save by Yassine Bounou to thwart João Félix in the 82nd minute kept the North African dream alive.

Then a block save from a determined Ronaldo in the 90th just about sealed it. But with ten minutes added on, anything could still happen.

Two yellow cards in the space of a few minutes for Moroccan substitute, Walid Cheddira, added yet another twist to what was turning out to be a real helter-skelter tournament in another 'injury time' moment of pain.

Yet Morocco continued to attack; determined to succeed.

Ronaldo finally left the field in tears. Congratulations Morocco.

Final Score:
Morocco Morocco 1 - Portugal Portugal 0
1:0 Youssef En-Nesyri (42)

England  England vs France France
Al Bayt Stadium.

England and France last met at a World Cup Finals when Bryan Robson's England played Michel Platini's France in Bilbao on the sixteenth of June, at Spain 82.

Bryan Robson hooked England in front, with just 27 seconds of their opening game at the tournament played, after Terry Butcher flicked on Steve Coppell's long throw-in from the right.

That was forty years ago. I was at the game but these players were not even born. Now the world is at their feet.

But they have to beat the World Champions first and that wouldn't be easy, especially at a goal down at half-time.

Goal Aurélien Tchouaméni had given France the lead in the 17th minute.

Harry Kane was later denied by his Tottenham team mate, here playing in goal for France.

So it would now all rest on Gareth Southgate's team talk to turn things around.

Second Half

Don't panic.

A solid start down the left for England, and Hugo Lloris was made to work to keep England out and help prove that he wasn't France's weakest link.

The sustained pressure paid off when Bukayo Saka managed to draw a penalty for England.

Goal Harry Kane thought twice, struck the spot-kick firmly past his club goalkeeper, equalled Wayne Rooney's England goalscoring record and brought the fourth quarter-final back to life.

Jordan Pickford made a crucial save from Olivier Giroud in the 77th minute.

Goal A minute later and France's record scorer was back, to head in Antoine Griezeman's cross from the left.

The referee was called to look at the VAR and a penalty was given to England for a barge in the back of Mason Mount.

The pressure of a second penalty against his club goalkeeper might been too much for Harry Kane; as he blasted the ball high, with six minutes left to play.

Even with eight minutes added on, the gulf seemed too wide for England.

With England's last chance, Marcus Rashford's free-kick just missed the target.

Final Score:
England England 1 - France France 2
0:1 Aurélien Tchouaméni (17)
1:1 Harry Kane (54 pen)
1:2 Olivier Giroud (78)

Semi-Finals

Tuesday, 13th December

After taking the lead through a Lionel Messi penalty, in the 34th minute, two more goals from Julián Álvarez made sure there was no way back for Croatia.

Wednesday, 14th December

France France vs Morocco Morocco (2:0) - Al Bayt Stadium.
1:0 Theo Hernández (5)
2:0 Randal Kolo Muani (79)

2022 World Cup Final

Sunday, 18th December

Argentina Argentina vs France France (3:3 aet 4:2 penalties) - Lusail Stadium.
1:0 Lionel Messi (23 pen)
2:0 Ángel Di María (36)
2:1 Kylian Mbappé (80)
2:2 Kylian Mbappé (81)
3:2 Lionel Messi (108)
3:3 Kylian Mbappé (118 pen)

From the start, Argentina looked like they wanted the World Cup more.

A dubious penalty decision got them off and running then Angel Di Maria, Argentina's best player in the first-half, added a second.

With Angel di Maria taken off, just after the hour, Argentina's threat on the left was greatly reduced.

It took a penalty in the 80th minute to bring France back to life, Mbappe could believe again and equalised just a minute later.

A vital save from Hugo Lloris prevented Lionel Messi giving Argentina the trophy in the final minute of time added on.

The Argentina bench wept in the 108th minute, when they thought Lionel Messi had given them a final victory, but ten minutes later the whole of Argentina were in tears as Kylian Mbappé levelled from the spot; to claim his World Cup final hat-trick.

Probably the best World Cup Final ever, with the winner decided on penalties.
