The game is being competed but without clear chances. It gives the feeling that whoever scores first takes the cat into the water
Let’s remember that all the players who have a yellow card and access the semifinals pass clean but if they see the second one today they should serve a penalty match
Yellow to Brozovic
Both the pitcher goes to the source…
Perisic altaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Good change from Juranovic, who finds his compatriot on the other flank but his shot goes wide
Min. 29
It seems that now it is Brazil who dominates the clash, although Croatia is not afraid
He is distributing Croatia now and I don’t exactly play or pass… What a cookie Brozovic gives
I hope someone scores soon and we don’t go to extra time, I have things to do…
Lateral free kick that Modric serves without consequences. Brazil clears it
What a foul by Danilo on Juranovic. The Brazilian raises his foot a lot and hits the Croatian in the face. light yellow card
Casemiro shoots and is deflected by a Croatian defender for a corner
It seems that Brazil is waking up!
Min 20
Play by Vinicius, paired with Gvardiol, makes the wall with Neymar inside the area but his final shot misses the target
Uyuyuyuy what a game and what a chance for Brazil
How scary Gvardiol is with that mask…!
Brazil has a lot of gunpowder but if there is no one to load the shotgun…
Croatia is carrying the weight of the game and is closing in on the goal defended by Alisson. Be careful that Brazil can suffer!!!
Almostiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Croatiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Neither Juranovic nor Perisic manage to finish off a dangerous cross into the area. Dalic’s team has had it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Min. 12
Press Brazil now the exit of the ball
How much color in the stands. The matches in Brazil are a spectacle.
Croatia prefers to command the field
Min 6
Croatia continues to move it but without generating danger
The first for Brasiiiiiiiil
Vinicuis’s distant shot that Livakovic catches without problems
Richarlison goes to defensive help and receives Modric’s foul
The two teams are measuring each other. It seems that Croatia takes the initiative
Lack of Casemiro, why not?
Very serious Tite in band. He knows that the whole country is watching this match
Start the partyoooooooooooooo. Roll the ballnnnnnn. Croatia has it
They are already with the exchange of pennants and field raffle. Oh what a pity, with how good Sergio Busquets looks there and he won’t be there anymore…
What a haircut and what eyebrows are Raphinha’s. If I do that to myself, my mother won’t let me in the house and my father disinherits me…
Now Neymar sings, be careful not to swallow the gum
And Thiago Silva singing, Tite too…
Vinicius looking at the stands…
Neymar chewing gum…
Now the anthem of Brazil is playing
The players with their hands on their chests and the trunk in the background
The Croatian anthem plays
The players jump onto the pitch. How nervous they must be…
Those of Zlatko Dalic also smile. The Croats want to be back in the semifinals of the World Cup, like in the last edition of Russia 2018, where only France deprived them of reaching the final
But not all are smiles in the verdeamrelha. Those of Tite can lose footballers if they go through the round and there are yellow cards. Military, Fred and Bruno Guimarães are on the alert.
The game is about to start and I haven’t eaten yet. I’m lucky that I always have one of those pre-made tortillas in the fridge for moments like this. In the middle part I gobble it up and here nobody forbids me to have a beer…
I attach the preview of this match, by Jesús Gómez Peña. Do not miss it, it will help you understand many things about what happens this afternoon
With Brazil already warming up on the pitch, Reeal Madrid continues to bet on this brilliant South American football
Half an hour until the game starts…
Go late-night football. Because then Argentina and the Netherlands play for another place in the semifinal. A clash that recalls the final of 78.
In case you have doubts about how to place the two teams on the pitch, the experts explain it to us here
Tite repeats the team that thrashed South Korea. DAlic, on the other hand, introduces two changes with respect to the team that defeated Japan: he enters Sosa on the left side and also Pasalic in the attack. Pekovic and Barisic remain on the bench
After overcoming some physical problems, Neymar is already at his best and is the starter this afternoon
What a duel is coming between Modric and Casemiro. Colleagues in Madrid and today enemies…
eleven from croatia
Dalic trusts Livakovic; Juranovic, Gvardiol, Lovren, Sosa; Brozovic, Kovacic, Modric; Perisic, Pasalic y Kramaric
Brazil lineup
This is Tite’s bet: Alisson; Militao, Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Danilo; Casemiro, Paqueta; Raphinha, Neymar, Vinicius; richarlison
Croatia was second in group F, which was led by Morocco. The Croats drew against the Africans (0-0), beat Canada (4-1) and drew against Belgium (0-0). In the round of 16 they got rid of Japan on penalties after the game ended in a draw (1-1)
Brazil arrives after having finished first in group G, in which they beat Serbia (2-0), Switzerland (1-2) and lost to Cameroon (1-0), and overwhelmingly eliminated South Korea in the round of 16 (4-1)
A round in which Spain will not be after being eliminated in the round of 16 against Morocco
