Third Place-Playoff: Croatia vs Morocco
| Date | Fixtures | Time (in PST) | Venue |
| December 17 | Croatia vs Morocco | 8:00PM | Khalifa International Stadium |
In comparison to the World Cup final, which will feature Kylian Mbappe vs. Lionel Messi in Argentina, there is clearly a notion that the third-place play-off is really an exhibition game.
Regardless of what others may think, the match between Croatia and Morocco on Saturday at the Khalifa International Stadium is really important to them.
Argentina prevented Croatia from competing in back-to-back World Cup finals, and Morocco competed admirably against the defending champions France despite losing 2-0.
