audience nature is so much more than income for shareholders. if the library of my people explore in abundance of world class programming on al jazeera, ah, this is al jazeera ah hello, i'm adrian finnegan. and this is that he is alive from doe hoff. coming up in the next 60 minutes. people are back on the streets in peru, as a court orders for the president federal castillo be detained until trial. another day of strikes on ukraine's energy facilities. russia targets at least 5 cities. the e u threatens ellen mosque with sanctions up to twitter abruptly bound several journalists from the platform, plus and the lift up, lift off and swap. our 1st,

the global survey of a global view of the climate crisis. nasa launch is a new satellite to conduct a major survey of the world's oceans. also, everyone was contributed to make this world come, the best world come ever t 1st. president, thanks the organizers of cut our 2022 just days ahead of the world cup final. ah, it is just after 1500 hours g m t. that's 10 am in lima peru, where the government is to create a 5 day curfew in 15 regions across the country. that's after the supreme court decision to keep impeached. president pedro castillo, in detention for the next 18 months. castillo has been charged with rebellion and conspiracy. after trying to dissolve congress,

at least 14 people have been killed in week long protests sparked by the countries political crisis. john holman reports now probably more. what tends to happen is that the process shake off in the afternoon going into the night, especially here in the capitol in lima. so that will become more apparent later on in the 1st day of the state of emergency, it almost doubled the number of deaths here. and a lot of those were in the i a show proven starts in the south of group, and it's a real bad scene of support from federal castillo the now ex president. so we'll see a little bit later today what the reaction is, especially to the fact that the federal castillo being imprisoned, has now been extended to 1818 months, not before. he gets a trial to decide whether he is guilty of those terms. now in terms of the curfew as well, just to say that in lima we are now there is no curfew that square. just under

a 3rd of the population of 33000000 people live. it is quite targeted. 15 provinces, in which most of the protests have been seen in the south of the country, in the mail, where petro castillo has been popular in rural areas, especially in which, as someone raised from room to room. he has a lot of support in ukraine, at least 5 cities, including the capital key, has been hit by as many as 60 missiles launched by russia. people in parts of kiva being urged to take shelter off the city was shaken by 3 blasts. ukraine says that russia's military has targeted critical facilities in cashier's, creevy, and stuff of his year already. challenge reports now from keith. been another tense and wearisome day in the campaign that russia is launching against civilian life in ukraine. another day where people had to run to the race shelters all look to the

skies as cruise missiles whistles over their heads. at least 60 were launched by russia. now defense had significant success in shooting many of those down, but at offense is not infallible, particularly when there's so many missiles law. so here's the damage. as we understand it so far, khaki have a big city completely without power, that we know of increase the re, central city to people killed 5 wounded when a residential building with hit there. a death in the south are power shortages here and key if the capital, as you can see, the low cloud cover meant that when i was looking around early, i tried to spot see the, the trails of air defense or plumes of smoke on the horizon of successful strikes, i couldn't all i could hear was the boom boom boom, reverberating around the city as they tried to shoot the missiles down quite airy,

i have to say there are power issues in parts of the capital. the metro system was shut down so that people could use those stations as bomb shelters. and the mayor, we thought kids go, he said very severe water running water disruptions around the city, but they're trying to get that back up and running. the e u has threatened sanctions after twitter suspended the accounts of more than half a dozen journalists who write about the company at its new owner, ellen musk. they include reporters from the new york times cnn, and the washington post mosque treated that he couldn't accept that his real time location could be shared in what's known online as docking. saying that it endangered his family. he said the twitter would release a feature indicating the reasons for any suspension. and that rules banning the publishing of personal information also applied to journalists. esco lived out in

new york out as he was gay but his own though his ass in the wind, the rain of the cold gave. what's been the reaction to this at the suspension of the journalist? well, there's been a lot of shock, quite frankly, because this was very unexpected. and it wasn't really announced in advance at all . and all of the journalists that were had their account suspended, as you mentioned, are all very prominent journalists from very large news organizations, cnn, the washington post the new york times. what they all had in common or have in common is they were all tech journalists that were covering twitter as a company and covering ellen mosques, takeover of twitter. this year. a few of them had been somewhat critical of the takeover and of iran musk, but nothing that would cause any sort of red flags. it would cause you to say that they would need their account suspended at all. so this certainly is come as

a surprise not only to those journalists, all of whom have said that they got no warning of this, and we're not given any reason whatsoever on why their account was suspended. as a certainly calling into question. now a lot of free speech issues as well. people are saying, you all must have bought twitter in his own words to make it a more a place of more free speech. but clearly this move of suspending. these journalists seems to defy that. so okay, boards, twitter, and more importantly, what is, what is e long mosque saying about these suspensions? well, twitter no longer has a public relations department or immediate relations department that responds to questions from journalists. he law must fire those employees shortly after taking over the company. so it's very hard to get information about what's happening in the company. and it really runs through one personnel, and that's ellen musk himself. he is the so controlling power of the company. he is

only said publicly, of course, via twitter that insinuating that these accounts were suspended because they were dock seeing him or they were releasing real time information on his whereabouts and recent days. musk is tweeted that he thought that someone was stalking him. he's also suspended the account of someone that was at a twitter account. there was a real time showing where his private jet was in real time. he said that was a risk to him and his family. so it, it's believe that this is why i, he suspended that account and also suspended these journalists because he claims they were releasing information on his whereabouts. putting him in danger. cable is on a live in new york. many facts indeed gave or concerns about free speech had been raised frequently in the lead up to yellow mosques acquisition of twitter. but the suspension of journalists accounts are sounding alarm,

bells. germany is foreign. ministry is tweeted saying the press freedom cannot be switched off on a wind. and the british prime minister spokesman says that regardless of ownership, social media platforms must balance protecting their users while upholding free speech. in response to the criticism mosque tweeted, a poll asking people whether he should on suspend the accounts of people who tracked his location. julius now is front mother marrow of ich, he's the executive director of the international press institute and joins us now live from piano goods. have you with us so much for free speech. then what do you make of these suspensions as he long must done this all when i did really the point of the problem. we don't know what the basis for the decisions how they be taking off. what are the criteria criteria? i think the problem is a platform such big classroom as twitter platform which is essential for manager

were should be ready. they just know when somebody has to be with all the rules and procedures i handle that needs to have strong action menu, constantly speech a pass. you heard me say the japanese foreign ministry has treated criticism of this the u. k. prime minister's spokesman as well. lots and lots of criticism of, of water on mosque has done here. what damage, what further damage is this doing to twitters reputation? i think clear. so what is being done? and i see personally many journalists, many members of our organizations are. ready using a platform for promoting that they're not looking for

and this is clear in the regular space. so we need to have regulation, how things are being done in order to protect the speech. we need rules and procedures protection each can using anything. and these journalists, tweets that would have warranted the action that long last took against them. i don't know if any entity extend that again, the problem is we don't know which basics or band deactivation accomplishing the information. my understanding was the publishing information which was already published. so this is nothing particular yes, there are some, there should be taken into account whatever doing something which is anyway with it always. so there is absolutely no reason in

any restrictions to be really good to talk to so many thanks for being with us front of it's in vienna. thank you here what the knees are from al jazeera, still to come on the program, demanding answers in south korea. families of the victims of the halloween crowd crush. call for government accountability. 49 days after the disaster. in kosovo, a former rebel commander is convicted of war crimes and sentenced to 26 years in prison. ah, at least 10 people, including 5 children who died in a fire at an apartment building in southeastern france. the fire started on the ground floor of a 7 story block of flats overnight in the city of leon. at least 14 other people were injured. thousands of people are demonstrating and belgium's capital

lou ah, ah, welcome to world cup today on far as small and we're live at our studio and don't waterfront in the house nation katara. it's last rough day at the tournaments as we

count down to the biggest match in world to football. presidential approval, katara 2022 was hailed as the best world cabin ever by the boss of fif leno matthews, carrying the hopes of a nation vans back home or loving his new approach that is taken argentina to the final with france and finishing on a high note to morocco squad, hope to end their historic tournament with the bronze metal. ah, joining me in the cdo as former u. s. international ambien sports analysts, christopher sullivan, and our football analysts. jemma sellers will get their thoughts in just a moment, but 1st fee for president johnny tino has haled, cut our 2022 as the best a world cup ever. he was speaking at a press conference in doha, where he also won out some more big news for morocco after they reach the semi finals. but country has now been chosen to host the club world cup in february.

with an expanded 32 team edition set to launch in 2025 at richardson was at the fif, a press conference. well, on the eve of this world cup in this same conference, whole faith of president johnny and van sienna, delivered an hour long monologue in which she rounded on. critics of castle in particular, western countries saying they were in no position to be handling out moral lessons . what a month on he was in much more positive mood emphasizing the quality of the football at this world cup of world cup where teams from all consonants reached the knockout rounds for the very 1st time and have caused highlighted the exploits of morocco becoming the 1st african seen to reach the semi finals and is now the world's best footballers, the fans and immediate get ready to leave cattle. he insists a meaningful legacy will be left behind. many people from around the world hash come to gutter and have discovered the outer world,

which they didn't know or they knew only forward us portrayed to them. and these people, when they go back home, they will speak about their experience. the people who stay here, they will speak about that experience and they will open up more to the other. and i think this is really an important non football legacy which this particular world cup has, has brought in francine. it also gave an update on the format of the club world. kathy says it will be expanded to include $32.00 teams from 2025 in the short term, a smaller version of that. for them, it will be hosted by morocco early next year. the number of cars have multiple bits in the past. the host the mens will cut none so far successful. but everything that country that team has achieved here in tech back has no home there. it's the one they take. the mens will come back to africa in francine,

also facing the complexity of the expanded world cup in 2026. that will include 48 countries, rather than 30 to the size of the groups, the number of gangs, the length of tournament all questions that have yet to have definitive answers. fee for he says, be revisiting all those topics early next year. well let's bring in christopher and jemma now and christopher. i want to start with you. do you think that main benefit of having the 4018 format will bring more opportunities for africa and asia? yeah, i like the idea. i mean, it was very controversial when it 1st came out, obviously because many of the purists were saying we went from 24 to 32. and what is this now? the answer to a tournament was 64 in the us. but i think we're seeing unique stories of countries that have been overlooked in the past that have closed the gap as far as the margins of quality players play an important clubs all over the world that are

bringing that back to the national team players that had played and world cups before national teams that have brought back the technical document in coaching. that you need to bring these teams in these tournaments and you look no further than morocco. how good they are, the quality of a team that was a revelation in the tournament, the way that they played football, the fluidity, the resilience, and they took it to france. and i think that if we do go from $32.00 to $48.00, there will be another story in the united states. much similar to this general. what do you think you know more teams, more games is i better? ah, we'll see. i mean, i don't going to be the kind of person that we always complain like, no, let's not change it. i mean, it's true that we had the best group stage ever. i mean, it's been so exciting, but let's see how they decide organize. i mean, at the, under the dogs have been the big surprise that we have seen so many shock defeats. so the avia gen tina with the don australia have seen so many surprises. so get

role if there are a more teams that moral port unit is to enjoy better games. so yeah, i have an open perspective to that. ok with just one more thing on that as well as there's always a flight to quality like there's always pains as you try to improve. but as a games evolving and we see around the world, small, even though it's, it's the global game in the planets game. but i see in 10 years from now to work up from now, 3 walk ups from now that you'll see 4800, where the countries the quality is even higher. so to get this experience and play those type of tournaments, then i think the gap will be bridged and christopher in 15. 0, there is saying that it calling this the best world cup ever. what's your take been on it? why i certainly think is the best organized world cup and this is my 5th woke up that i've covered, you know, one as a player 2 as well. and i think having been in brazil where football is the mecca and italy where football is religion, it's very unique,

a bet participated are being a part of that kind of woke up. the meticulous attention to detail that i've seen in katara is like not none other i've ever seen the thoughtfulness to prepare. i mean, it's just stunning. it's incredible. even the players have set the field impeccable stadiums. and then the fan experience has been just amazing. so i think the whole cultural experience and then the way that it was put together, i've never seen one is good. alright, well, chatting a bit, but let's turn our attention to sundays final. now, argentina and france preparing for their match at the sales stadium summer, saying there is a new little messy on the field during this world cup and an urgency that people are loving it, or isabel report from when osiris. oh, a freeze my unit. macy has made it to people's hearts in argentina. what are you looking at fall? it's being printed on t shirts. mugs and even tattooed on people's bodies and allow me to sell dollars

and dinner. tony will face, he works at this shopping when aside as well. and says the growing demand for t shirts with a free shows support for the football star little bit. okay. laughing to the louis area. i think people wanted a messy who's more spicy and in this world cup, he has shown it during the matches. he shows his argentinean, he gets angry like we do and that's why people want these t shirts. alex, it all started during the quarter final between argentina and the netherlands tension was running high. oh, from it. oh, i love us. oh. in opposed to match interview a fired up messy, cleared at dud striker vowed their course and said in slang, what are you looking at for clear off for clear off the catch phrase. he softened, combined with an image of the plea, cupping his ears, and louis van gull the dutch coach, who had earlier questioned macy's abilities. oh, it struck a chord back home and has been used in commercials,

music and even on wine bottles. people here are in love with the leona massey, most of the people you talked to said that he had been extraordinary during this well come the low, his career, not his leadership and hope that he'll be able to guide argentina to victory on sunday. many have compared macy's attitude to the eagle matter, lorna, whose sharp mouth constantly got him into trouble. little bit of january, but writers who at young fair says, likening messy to marianna is a mistake. this missy, i mean, we tend to comprehend it to marijuana all the time. and you can compare message to melanie because there are different types of personalities and 10 people, they laugh at the outspoken style of metal, and now they're risky style. i would say if murder gone and messy, he's now been like this. people's reactions have a lot to do with food, were rivalry, but also challenging authority. and that's the beauty of football. i mean,

we have some problems here in the south and europe is much more developed area. but when it comes to the game, we are equal teens are excited for the world cup final, hoping that finally, unique, messy, will bring the trophy to latin america. once again, i see that one sided. all right, so jemma argentina made it to the final in 2014, but they lost to germany. yeah. do you think there is a different mood around this team? yeah, definitely. it is even though that finally might i cannot. they had a chance in that, in that game, it was a close game, but i think the energy of the national thing was not the same now. messy was definitely not that much was to run their us, he's filling now. and i think he's really feeling much more comfortable in this role of being the leader having the team on his shoulders. but at the same time, having so much energy from the youngsters that the connection he has build with

julian already. and so fernandez, he is really amazing. and so i think the approach he's having in this woke up, i've never seen it, i remember talking to him just before russia and you can feel that team lead something was missing. now i think we're talking about another argentine, about a different chris for is france a more scared of messy or argentina, more scared of him. bob bay. i think both equally have have, have the protagonist as the catalyst says they're on the radar. but going back to brazil, i was there and medic, and, and that origin tina was different because they had alejandro. sophia is the coach, bella and he was a little more cautious like under belie those style rather than minority. and i think that, you know, the best plan, the 1st half was patrol of se they took him out. could i go ahead? okay, man, he wasn't full strength in that match. and i think you're right when you look at

the composition of the players that they have with youth, invigorating certain elements that are a little more dynamic dynamic. lillian alvarez is amazing and he could end up being the golden boot. he could definitely and then you look at any fernandez or go above the river players, but the defense is only allowed 6 shots on goal per match averaging. so i think that this argentina stacks up having said that, germany was a little bit stronger in the final than this france as far, even though they have in germany was a machine in brazil. you know. ok, well talking about france and them, bob bobby is on the brink of possibly winning his 2nd world cap. everyone says he's still going to get better. so could we see him eventually surpassing messy as you know, the best player only time can tell us not. i mean, messy one would talk about messy. we're talking about the player who has been amazing for 15 years. who has one seeks of all under. i'm not sure if we're going to see these again, maintaining the site level for so over the day could so. so many times,

but in but there's so promising is using the verge of winning. the 2nd woke up, that's a lot. and his numbers in the, in the work up are very equal to messy and he's more than 10 years younger. so yeah, i think he's one of the promises of this. i mean, he's not the promise. he's a reality already, but yeah, he can be different players different there. yeah. even i there always debate mother, i don't a messy. they're totally different players. you know, they'll never be, diego might have on a bus that he's like a cartoon is almost a fantasy from another planet just like ronald dino is different as well. so when people love to compare yeah, players and i think at his use what he's doing is phenomenal. it's just unbelievable. ok, well we'll chat about that later. but croatian morocco will be playing for the bronze medal in the 3rd place. play off 24 hours from now, morocco has been one of the best for the team, is the 1st african or eric country to get this far. in a world top,

nicholas tax sat down with moroccan journalists, vehicle for key he to discuss the importance of their performance, no matter whether they win or lose on saturday. be on the football. how significant is the success of the moroccan team? said, could you move this world cup has created the story and narrative that feels like a hollywood movie, but with a moroccan twist better yet really an african resonance. and that's why this will come to kept the imagination of so many on the continent. and even those who wouldn't normally watch football. now, a lot of the members of this team are not born in morocco. and yet a lot of them chose to represent morocco. how does this have an effect on people here? excuse junior, and what's amazing in the story is that they are those moroccans born and bred here with his own mentality. it but like me and then you have these moroccans who

a jewel citizen who grew up away from morocco and have such a different mentality with a rainbow of vessels with i don't need to find themselves as arab muslim or african, but of all. and this was embodied in a magnificent way, by the coach. he was born in france and has come to morocco for opportunities. what can football do that politics or war leaders can to acoya? it's incredible to see the joy that was repressed because of the tough economic and social times. difficulties of world politics. and somehow we all forgot what it's like to experience joy, to be joyous people, not all the time, but at least sometimes. and what is this lesson learned between arab nations here in this world cup, in which an arab nation has gone so far in a world cup that's taking place in the middle east. and so would you mind just the

has been a change in perception as a moroccan. i want to get to know those in the gulf a little more. i want to meet those living in the rain. he white guitar and we are lucky that took place and it is the media power which allowed us to live something magical or the 3rd place match is a chance to and the tournaments on a high note and morocco coach wants to end this historic few weeks and style its, you know, as women next up come to that as we produce you, i guess that's the worst game that we have to play. but we still excited to play it . despite the disappointment, we'll just, the would have liked things to go differently. we would have liked to be in the actual final, but this is a 3rd place to play for. we want to be on the podium. we want to finish out told of beautifully. no, i think it's a good mr. play because he can and there was in the world. something never happened for african then this theme of america. after the loser, friends,

of course were disappointed. like i said, we played a good what is the same, the final of the worth of. so after the game day later, we can be happy. okay, so the 3rd place, playoff between morocco and croatia, jama, how motivated our players get at me for this match? i'm, i mean, i'm sure it has been a difficult 3rd to experience that the feeder is that they were in the burge of billing something. i mean, it was, it started go what they achieved, that they were so close to a final. but as they were talking just now, they need to take, tends the mindset and being in the poll, you miss something amazing her. so i'm sure that the coach and the stuff that it would have probably worked with a players like making him understand that this 3rd for place is also very important for him. what winner lose morocco have been fantastic here, christopher? have you been surprised at how far they guy i'm not really surprised because i been

such a huge fan of african food born in football from this side of the world have. i've always felt that they've produced amazing players. like you think in egypt with our both rica, they've had so many arm top players from africa, it's just taking the final step. normally they start out of the gates. and at that point in the earlier rounds, they make surprise results. we saw nigeria, we saw cameroon, and 9 d, you know, against camera room with her francois or mine big against argentine lead, you know, from madonna in 1990. and you have guy who's always played extremely well. but now for morocco, they've always produced amazing players. and i think a lot of it has to do with a transformation from this mister walid that came in 3 months before. yes. and i think that he invigorated this team. yeah. and i want to ask you about croatia because this is very likely to be luca march is last world cup. what has he done for world cups? i like in him. and you can correct me if i'm wrong because i know you know him very

well as i think that look, a mortgage represents to football. what andras in the to does if he goes to any stadium in the world, people stand up and applaud him, you know, he's one of those players that you just love to watch with a blessing and a gift to have him in our game. yeah, yeah, yeah, he's it, he's like this in the spain even rivals with arrivals they. they club with him. ok . well fans are gathering across katara for the last 2 matches of this world. cup soup walk is in dough has been a central gathering point for supporters. alexi o'brien is there for us. i lexia is a rest day. the calm before the storm had about 3rd place. place to morrow, and the final and just 48 hours from now. how's the atmosphere there? i have to say there are a bunch of people fill out, asking about walking around the but you bang on with that. com before the story because when i been wandering around and talking to people,

people definitely have seem to be a bit higher, but well laid back. possibly preserving the energy for what is going to be a big weekend. not only that could play off which is very closely watched because morocco are involved, the payments capture, not just the imagination to people across the african continent, but across the arab region as well. but then that big final between argentina and i'm actually going to bring in with me and i just got done who has phone and actually from a different what was an important for you to be here for this match, obviously, to see the game. most importantly, to support our team. thank them for the joy and happiness they gave us. i thought about it like if i came here and think so well, well, i would be really, really happy to be here obviously. but also feel that they don't work well. i wanted to be here to thank them and, and to let them know that we are with them, with some more than that. they give us a lot of happiness. i know that the young people are really happy about only able

to find them. do you have tickets for tomorrow night's manage or on it? what are you prepared to pay? i don't have events as events was something fine, whatever. i mean, we're, we're looking at it and if we don't get them, we'll, we'll watch the game here also and be able to, to be with our people. think that when i'm really cheering for this, it was, it's a party antarctic, as you can say, party atmosphere, old crypt for a big weekend to hitch back to you guys. all right, thanks so much for that. let's see. now as the middle east, 1st world cat draws to a spectacular and female fans, they're talking about their experience here in cats are during the tournament. it's actually a name has more. oh, it doesn't take a statistician to figure out that men dominate the stands of cut are 2022 just as they have at previous tournaments. fever says that the 2018 world cup about 25

percent of the spectators were women. it expects the same. this year, well long mad with wanted to cut our ranks as one of the safest countries in the world according to several lists. you feel very protected, you know, the security everywhere and like as a woman, you know, i don't think you can feel like a difference. mean, if you were a man like every want to say, i made friends with people around the muslim country also prohibited the sale of alcohol in and around the stadium. we've been in england and matches and you can not imagine with alcohol. what would they do? so yeah, it made a big difference. if a debuted a human rights volunteer program at katara 2022 more than $100.00 volunteers are positioned at every match and fan zone. they're here to observe. engage with fans and workers and record any grievances such as sexual harassment, discrimination,

and disability access issues. fever is hoping the program raises awareness and ensures a better fan experience. you actually have your rights because most of the time people feel like ok, that's it. and it is like, ok accept whatever it is, but actually it's not because you have the right of the week. you have the right to express, you had the rights to be a human l g b, d q vans and their supporters who wore rainbow t shirts or carried flags into the stadiums and cut our might dispute that there is now a means to formally file a complaint with the thought it plans to share lessons learned with the center for sport and human rights off the pitch. the goal is to create a human rights program that could be used for other sporting events, such as the olympics. natasha name al jazeera,

alcor cutter. let's go back to the world, cal final who will be celebrating on sunday, 8th as legends a tournament is currently going on here. and katara gave al jazeera so how malick the chance to catch up with some of the stars from the past and find out who they think. well when they trophy with the world cup is coming to an end. but right now we have a legend tournament. going on. busy and kicked off, it's not petune to find out who some of the 1000. yes thea think are going to trial on sunday, but i'm hoping that we were the weekend to one for for us. i think it will be

difficult because they are strong. we are strong and they've been growing into the competition. they, they with a lot of passion. and i know we were face amount of attention and funds in the stadium. i will say argentina environmental area, and i will tell you that i'm missing. i can be no impudent boshamp with near complet eli complex with winning the final come on i am friends. so obviously i will say france knowing that the the other side with too much attention and so sure that they would have him to win the coffee up to morrow. i know even 6, both grade teams but slightly fudging senior. why i don't because they wanted. so much better mission up on the approval for what

a 2nd on what am i supposed to get us without in this moment? no, i get it. i don't know that until they don't want to say that if with or go out on the interview, i could be enough to okay, well look him, i must have football a job. i'm in all new mcquaid is i've been i me see christine in 2nd. contina gibbs game. messy point, and then i go by monday. well, the legends have spoken now or we need to do is wait, but kick off on sunday and do sales argentina versus frank, who wants to call it? it's unpredictable. we shall see who ends up. well, champion okay, now before i get predictions for the winner from you too,

i want to just say that before the tournament even started, i said, france, i said, france, i don't know. i, i know what you're going to say jama. i know another record on the opening day. i say they, i said does my 3 country that's where but i sealed friends and argentine and that argentina will go in. so i think i have to stick with that. even though i think france has a better to be a team, i think the energy of argentina will help them. okay, chris christopher, now we don't know what you said, but did you predict argentine would be here? i originally had brazil in friday getting through towards the final, but i, i think that listen, argentina doesn't have a mile, raquel mame, the ali sandover on those quality midfield players. but they do have messy, they're very solid, they're very you needed. the united is the best match that they're coming off against croatia, so they have that going for them. france is very complete. they're winning even when they're playing in 2nd gear. and so it makes for an incredible final i can't

pick a winner. honestly, i think that it's either way ha, ha, ha, ha god, i will give a slight edge slighted because i think the football gods are looking, donnelly, no mercy. okay, do you think massey, i like that messy, messy has had like an up and down kind of tournament because he didn't have a great start. diddy. he's yeah, was indifferent. yeah. and i've interesting though they, they augmented a few changes after that. first match against saudi arabia, and i think that was the difference. you know, i think kaloni has been an amazing job recovering the team. argentina also has another day rest. and then they performed, they flew through the game, they were flying through the game against croatia. so they have that going for all right, well, we will see very soon thanks to jemma and christopher for joining me. well, this is what we're all building up to the climax of cut our 2020 to you, the world cup. find out between argentina and france, which will take place at least sales stadium on sunday. we'll have more from here
