In his post-match press conference tonight, Deschamps was asked: "There's a report today that Benzema could come back to Qatar. Whoever manages to do that will win the match." On Sunday's World Cup final, Deschamps continued: "Lionel Messi has been in scintillating form at the beginning of the tournament. It will be up to key players to make a difference, and maybe the team that makes fewer mistakes will win the game. "We saw a very strong Argentina team against Croatia but in previous matches they haven't always been as strong. They are so calm, so composed and they know what they have to do. Mbappe and Lionel Messi will understandably dominate the build-up to Sunday's World Cup final. Morocco had beaten Belgium, Spain and Portugal in a series of gutsy performances en route to the last four. We know they are going to have a lot of support from the crowd. In an apparent move of desperation, the world champions turned to Griezmann to fill the chasm vacated by two stars of their triumph in Russia four years prior. "Of course, there isn't only Messi, they have a strong side around him, so we know it's going to be a tough game. "Any team with Messi in is a totally different proposition," Griezmann told his post-match press conference.

The team reached the World Cup quarterfinals in 2014 and then played in the 2016 European Championship final, losing to Portugal at home in Paris. The spine of this team — goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, center back Raphaël Varane, Griezmann and striker Olivier Giroud — has been a constant presence. The French followed that with the World Cup title in 2018, and they’ll get a chance to win a third in their history on Sunday against Argentina at Lusail Stadium. Griezmann then went to console some of his opponents, seeking out goalkeeper Yassine Bounou, who also plays in the Spanish league. Griezmann had exceptional moments in both penalty areas — and all parts of the field in between, really — to help France beat an impressive Morocco 2-0 in the FIFA World Cup 2022 semifinals at Al Bayt Stadium. It was a compete showcase of a gifted player who has reinvented himself at this year's World Cup.

Argentina should get physical with stylish Antoine Griezmann to shut ... (The Guardian)

Neither World Cup finalist look to dominate the ball but denying Griezmann possession is vital for Lionel Scaloni's side.

France have the experience of winning a World Cup and have progressed through the quarter- and semi‑finals despite not being at their best. It will be interesting to see the effect an opening goal has on the opposition and how they adapt their tactics. The finalists are not dominating the ball or pressing teams, but they have players capable of magic moments, and plenty of them. France did not Morocco in the semi-final; they went round the deep-lying midfielder and were quite happy if the ball went into him. They will need their back four and midfield to be perfect against Argentina and a certain Paris Saint-Germain forward. France had 39% possession against Morocco and 43% against England and Argentina were on the back foot until they scored the opener against Croatia. [France](https://www.theguardian.com/football/france), allowing him to drop deeper to collect the ball so he can affect the game more. In addition to natural talent, players at the top require that level of drive and determination to help their team. Mbappé has the No 10 on the back of his shirt but his teammate is playing the role to perfection. The aerial threat of Wout Weghorst highlighted that Argentina can struggle with the direct approach and that is something Giroud could make the most of. He still operates as a No 10 but he has the freedom to roam for He has a slightly different role to the one at club level.
