A Winner & Loser from the Semifinals, part 2

Related Topics: Randal Kolo Muani

We’re down to the final weekend of the 2022 men’s World Cup. Although we had a lot of surprising results along the way, the two teams vying for the trophy were among the pre-tournament favorites, but first Morocco still has a chance to make one more statement in the third-place match.

Winner

Randal Kolo Muani: Randal Kolo Muani wasn’t supposed to be at the World Cup. Injuries ahead of him on the French forward depth chart meant that he got a reward for his outstanding performances with 2nd place Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt. Kolo Muani, 24, joined the German side on a free transfer after a productive 2021-22 season with Ligue 1’s FC Nantes, where he had 13 goals and 7 assists in 41 all-competition appearances.
