Tell me how Brazil lets Croatia get a break like that with 5 min to go? I know they’re an attacking team but that was just dumb.
thought they had won it already but croatia never gave up. at that point in the game brazil should've done everything to hold off a few more minutes.

it's a gut punch for the brazil fans but if you want to win the world cup you need to be on your absolute best performance and brazil weren't.

Once they made a goal they could just chew time and play defensivelly. It was clear that if this was going for penalties they would lose. Brazil is dumb as fuck, only knows how to attack(and badly because only one goal). Look how poor the penalties were, 2 missing goals.

It's too bad we won't see Argentina vs Brazil, but happy for Croatia, I really hope there's a fresh new World Cup winner this tournament, a team that's never won it.

croatia, portugal, netherlands, morocco. it would be cool to see one of them win.

i don't think portugal or morocco can do it. netherlands MIGHT and croatia just might too.

i don't care who wins as long as it's not England. we'll be hearing about it for the next 6 decades at least.

agree, but i still think one of the big teams remaining will snatch it, probably france at this point, althouh i pointed to argentina in the pre-tournament

Kudos to them.

They did an amazing homework. The Croatia coach got a load of backlash from social media just for saying the oblivious. Beat Brazil and no one will remember what happens besides this match.

On the other hand, a loads of opportunities from Brazil in the first time totally wasted. Shame.

you don't really get football then... at least not from a fans point of view. if you casually watch football and don't have a particular favorite team then of course you won't understand. i mean i wouldn't be crying cause brazil went out but if i was from brazil and wanted to see my national team do well i'd probably want to cry. i'd be seriously upset and deflated.

Well done Croatia, that is some serious tenacity.
Game was hella boring to watch though, not a lot of entertainment in it.

I said it from the start to friends/family here: Croatia will become world champion. Kinda sucks, because if we do manage to beat Argentina in a few min, then well, it's Croatia next. Fuck me. Tonight's going to be tough enough as it is.

It wasn't Brazil that lost a lot of chances. It was the Croatian goalkeeper did frickin incredible match from the beginning until the penalties shootout.
The guy is doing a really good world cup.

I don't care if it will be an Eurofest, we are all "Holland" now.

No yellow for Messi for hands is just BS though, sweet jesus
