The 2022 World Cup qualifiers have kicked off at this time with a number of interesting games. In the 4th World Cup France hosts Ukraine, while Finland meets Bosnia. In the 8th place the world runner-up, Croatia, meets Slovenia, while Russia faces Malta and Cyprus hosts Slovakia. In another match, Latvia hosts Montenegro (House 7).
France – Ukraine 0: 1 (House 4)
The world champion wants to open the title defense campaign with his right foot, while Didier Deschamps wants to once again lift the most coveted trophy in the football world. The star-studded tricolor hosts the intriguing team of Andrei Shevchenko, who is trying to create a surprise. Killian Ambape marks his 40th appearance in France, the youngest to reach that amount in his squad, when he was only 22 and 3 months old.
19th minute, France took the lead 0: 1: Antoine Griezmann snatched the ball on the right side of the extension and from 16 yards out spun a wonderful diagonal ball to the left corner of Giorgi Boschan.

Slovenia – Croatia 0: 1 (House 8)
A boiling battle between two teams with a long history. On the one hand the Croats who reached their biggest achievement in Russia 2018, then qualified for the final (where they lost to France), will want to continue to impress on the way to further immigration. On the other hand, the Slovenes host at home and try to collect points if they want to be the surprise of House 8. Meanwhile, Luca Modric clings to Dario Sarna as the top scorer in the Croatian national team with his 134th appearance in the national uniform.
15 minutes, Slovenia took the lead 0: 1: Sandy Lubric took advantage of a bad clearance from the Croatian defense and from 16 yards kicked sharply to the bottom left corner of Dominic Leibakovic.
