France striker Olivier Giroud may not play in 2022 World Cup final against Argentina.

Reported by L'Equipe.

The 36-year-old striker has problems with his knee, injured in the semi-final match against Morocco. It was because of her that Olivier was substituted already in the 65th minute of the game.

The source feels that the condition of the forward's knee has worsened in recent days.

Instead, the French coaching staff intends to use Borussia Monchengladbach centre-forward Marcus Thuram. He replaced Giroud against Morocco.

The decisive match of the 2022 World Cup will take place on Sunday, December 18, at the Lusail-Iconic Stadium in Lusail. The game starts at 17:00 Kyiv time. Text online broadcast of the match Argentina - France is available on our website.
