List Of Argentina Suspended Players For World Cup 2022 Semi-Final vs Croatia And Yellow Cards Rule
After Brazil, the Albiceleste are one of the favourites to win the tournament. It was thought that the two South American rivals would play each other. But Brazil lost to Croatia in the quarter-finals in a penalty shootout. After losing the title to France in 2018, the runners-up want to get to the finals again.
Who Won’t Be On The Field For Argentina When They Play Croatia in Qatar Semifinals In 2022?
In the Qatar Semifinals, Luka Modric and his team will try to do the same thing to Lionel Messi and Argentina as they almost did to the Netherlands in the last round. In what is likely to be his last World Cup, the star of Paris Saint-Germain once again carries the hopes of his country on his shoulders. As he tries to reach a peak that neither he nor his main rival, Cristiano Ronaldo, have yet to reach.
Argentina, on the other hand, will have to prove that they deserve to be in the championship game without two regulars. Gonzalo Montiel and Marcos Acuna will not be able to play in the semifinal game against Croatia. Because they both got yellow cards in the last game against the Netherlands they will not be able to go to Qatar Semifinals.
Both Already On Yellow Card
The two defenders, who both play for Sevilla, were already on a yellow card when they went into the match against the Dutch at the Lusail Stadium. They both got another yellow card, so they won’t be able to play in the next game against Croatia.
All in all, seven Argentines (L. Martnez, Paredes, Messi, Otamendi, Montiel, Pezzella, and manager Scaloni) got yellow cards on Friday. Only Montiel and Acuna had been warned before, so they will not play in the match that will decide the winner.
All of their other cards have been wiped clean, so they won’t have any yellows when they play Croatia. Scaloni will have to switch his wingers and go with Nahuel Molina and Nicolas Tagliafico, who both started against the Oranje.
