Croatia really are cloggers, just luck of the draw they've got this far. 

World Cup Final and Semi Final in the last 2 World Cups and people think Southgate is great.

Ronaldo is one of the greatest goalscorers of all time, but Messi is also one of the greatest goalscorers of all time and one of the best players of all time if not the best.

 Messi, Brazilian Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Zidane, amazing players.

And? None of the other players in the top 10 are anywhere near him, including Ronaldo who's a good 8 behind him, despite being a more established player in WC 06.

11 goals and 7 assists in 25 games is impressive but he has played more games than anybody in the competition history but his stats are lower than his club record and other players have better stats than him per game.

Tonight was only his 3rd goal ever in the knockout phase and they were all scored this year, 2 penalties

You do realise they knocked out Brazil right?

Japan was a really good win aswell considering they'd just won against Spain and Germany.

Thought Croatia were really good first 30 minutes but just got done by two breakaways, it happens. They have missed a Mandzukic type forward in this tournament though and some more pace out wide which they had in 2018 but 2nd and potentially 3rd in successive World cups is amazing from them.

I still don't think this Argentina side will beat France. I really hope I'm wrong. 

Well, first France has to get past Morocco and their defence!

That said, Argentina is peaking at the right time. The defence was outstanding tonight (don't overlook it), the attack was incisive, and that goalkeeper isn't too bad either. They will have the crowd advantage and they know how to win a major final (not to say that France doesn't). It would be a great match.

None of that devalues the achievement tbh, especially comparing to himself. Penalties in a WC environment are also a completely different beast. He'll have only played 3/4 more games than the likes of Klose and Ronaldo and will be completely clear of them. There's no downplaying that. Only Pele's record is more impressive.
