Ukrainian coach Myron Markevich expressed his expert opinion on the 2022 World Cup, which will end tomorrow in Qatar.
Miron Markevich- In the bronze medal match, the players who received less playing time will get a chance to play. I would not hold such matches at all, but would give bronze to both teams. It's more of an exhibition match. Morocco has already jumped above its head, there will be more motivation than in Croatia.
The final will not be a confrontation between Messi and Mbappe. Both teams have high-level performers who help them. The team that plays more accurately in defense and finds its chance ahead will win. If Argentina plays like in the semi-finals, it will be hard for the French.
What has the 2022 World Cup changed in terms of tactics? Nobody needs that football anymore. Control for the sake of control sooner or later leads to mistakes. Nothing surprising for me. I love it when the team controls the ball, but it has to be within limits. You need to play more forward, sharpen, and when you roll the ball, it's hard to do anything. Where there are clear leaders in the teams, they play in the final, because they can decide the matches on their own. Mbappe in France, Messi in Argentina.
Biggest disappointment? I thought that Brazil would achieve more, but their foppishness killed them. In Metalist, the Brazilians were not allowed to play tricks like that, they kept discipline, but here they danced, - Markevich quotes fan day.
