France reached the final of FIFA World Cup 2022 on Thursday after a 2-0 win over Morocco as they set up a date in the summit clash against Lionel Messi's Argentina. Theo Hernandez scored the opening goal against Morocco, while Kolo Muani scored late in the second half to seal the contest.
Had Theo's elder brother Lucas Hernandez been fit, chances are that the AC Milan left-back wouldn't have even started the match, however, the elder brother sustained a rupture to his ACL on his right knee in France's opening group game against Australia which they won 4-1.
Theo wants to win the World Cup for his brother, who is set to miss out on at least six months of football after suffering the injury.

Speaking to the media after France's win over Morocco, the younger sibling stated that he's been in touch with Lucas every day since he left Qatar to recover from the injury.
"His injury was very bad news for us. It’s not easy for him, either, because it’s also a really long injury," said Theo Hernandez.
He added, " I've been talking with him on the phone every day since he left Qatar. I want to play in every match here because I want to bring the trophy back for him."
