FIFA 2022 world cup

[Die_empty]

Neither team could score a goal in this match between Brazil and Croatia.  But either team will turn to attack after the break and goals can be scored at either site.  45 percent of the ball for Brazil and 40 percent for Croatia.  However, Brazil's attack numbers are higher.  Be sure to tune in to watch the game after the break.

The first half was kind of boring as both teams played defensively and there were almost no shots on goal.

The second half started with a bit of intensity and brazil has some good movements. However, there was a clear handball by a Croatia player and the umpire checked for VAR but it was denied. I wonder why plenty was not given when it was a clear handball by the Croatian player.

The second half is quite entertaining than the first half. I never expected that the Croatian team would be able to hold the powerful Brazilian team for these minutes. The Brazilian team have gotten six shots and four were on target, while the Croatian side have no shot on target. It also seems that the Croatian team are having more ball possession than the Samba boys. If Croatian side holds the Brazilian team till the end of the second half, there might be a possibility that the match would go to penalties. This is because the Croatian defense would be able to hold the Brazilian team throughout the extra time because they look very fit.

If it was a handball, it would have been awarded. The Croatian Goal keeper has saved some good chances that Brazil has gotten, a goal from any team will open up this game. Some fresh legs for Brazil can affect this positively. Tite has removed Raphinha for Anthony, and removed Vini Jr for Rodrigo. Richarlison has not had many opportunities in this game but the coach still leaves him in because he recognises that Rricharlison does not need to touch the ball a lot to be on target, he already has a good record of goals in this world cup with very few touches to his name. Martinelli is another player that will be good for this game.

Both the teams are trying but neither CRO nor BRazil has been able to make a goal - the time is passing
If the ends is done by penalty shootout than it will be a pure luck - Both team are showing good defense.

Both teams are very careful because with defense of Croatia, it is a mountain challenge for Brazil if Croatia score first. For Croatia, they will get trouble and have to change their defensive tactic which they don't want to.

The second half looks more exciting with more dangerous opportunities for Brazil. So far, Croatia still luckily keep their goal safely. The VAR rejects a penalty for Brazil and the shot of Paqueta was safe by Croatia goalkeeper.

The coach of Brazil replaced two wings, Vinicius and Rafinha by Rodrygo and Anthony. Will these new players make moments to change the match for Brazil?

[BRINIRHA]

Several times the Croatian goal almost conceded. but it seems croatia have luck in this match. but in the second half Brazil appear more attacking. and the tempo of their game has become a little faster. croatia's counterattack was also very fast. But still, Brazil's defense was really extraordinary in this match. and possession of the ball is still mostly controlled by Croatia. But croatia found it difficult to break through the brazil defense. the competition got really intense.

both teams are just running and running and getting nothing in return - 74 mins has passed and both the teams have not been able to score a goal
I think the decision will be made on penalty shootout. or my sixth sense is saying it will be Brazil win

This is a predictable type of quarter final as both teams are using defense mechanisms more than attacking , both of them are trying to strike on target but other team is strong in defense . Now almost time is about to end and I think we are going to watch extra time if this match if any team couldn't score any goal.

Few minutes left for this match - no goals yet.
The match will be decided on the penalty shoot out - CRO will surely win - their goalkeeper is in full form

[yahoo62278]

I'm awaiting England vs France tomorrow. Does anyone else feel like this is going to be 1 of the better matches of The World Cup? I was really impressed with Mbappe during the Poland vs France match and rooting on France to win The World Cup this time around.

[arallmuus]

the competition got really intense.

Exactly, which is also fun at the same time because this is 1/8 finals and any one sided match is pretty lame for world cup. Imagine having to go through the extra time just to win or penalty shootout instead of scoring 5-6 goals on a one sided game. Anyway, I bet on clean sheet on 35th minutes for Croatia because I thought this will be a stalemate between these two

Today match was boring - No team has been able to perform goal
Anthony made a disappointing hit on the corner - near the end of the game. The time is about to end. And no goal yet.

Livankovic is quite good, he is able to save kicks from opponents and is always in his right position, I think the dominance of possession still remains with Brazil, it's just that it is quite strong as well as this Croatian defense looks like it will end in a draw from the normal time of 90 minutes.
Croatia can only rely on fast attacks but their striker position is not so much up front so the ball is thrown back into the middle of the field and Brazil still continues to put pressure on Croatia. It was quite tense in the final minutes.
Maybe there will be an extension of time it seems.

[aylabadia05]

Brazil's midfield support has not been maximized for 45 minutes, unlike Croatia. Brozovic and Modric performed quite well in the first half. Croatia's only good chance was through Juranovic's action from the left sector of Brazil's defense which Perisic failed to take advantage of.

Brazil's chances to score goals are still there, maybe in the second half.
A very careful match because the slightest mistake would be fatal for them.

I am pleased with Croatia's performance thus far. Despite their strong defense, they are giving Brazil far too many opportunities. If caution is not exercised, Brazil will score a goal in the second half from the opportunities. Croatia played really well in the opening stages. We should anticipate more effort from their end.

Croatia and Brazil played well. For me this match is a match that demonstrates high technique. Brazil is still lacking in finishing.
89 minutes have passed, the player who stood out the most in this game was the Croatian goalkeeper, Livacovic. Almost all of Brazil's chances were saved by the 27-year-old goalkeeper of Dinamo Zagreb.

Livacovic's first half thwarted several opportunities for Neymar and Vinicius. In the second half the action continued to save Croatia's goal.

[hyudien]

Livakovic is a nightmare for Brazil, Brazil repeatedly gets golden opportunities and at the same time Livakovic manages to counter the opportunities created by Brazil. If the Croatia goalkeeper wasn't at his best then I think Brazil would have been ahead by at least 2 goals. The Brazilian was completely frustrated by the 27 year old goalkeeper. Entering the extra round, Brazil was still trying to find a way to beat the Croatian goalkeeper.
If this match ends in a penalty shootout, Croatia will have the upper hand because of their goalkeeper.

Both the team only defended - no one really played they way they used to
So many Brazilian fans in the stadium - the match will end with penalty shootout for sure

The Croatian goalkeeper has performed admirably and has not allowed the Brazilians to score a goal, with so much pressure on them so far. If the game goes to penalties, Croatia may be able to claim victory today. But I expect some adjustments in the game in the extra time, if any at all today. I hope the winner is determined before the penalty shootout.

Full 90 minutes and extra 4 minutes is over . no team are not able to score any goal yet. Now 30 minutes extra will be given.  This is the last time, if no goals are scored during this period, a penalty shootout will be decided.  Both teams are playing very well.  The game has a lot of hard fighting that is more than expected. Croatia is performing much better than expected of them . I appreciate them

30 mins extra - Brazilian players are over acting to get a plenty hit.
But seems like both the teams are trying hard nothing is working yet.

I do not agree that the match is boring between Brazil and Croatia.  Brazil has so many attempts to goal, but Croatia denied them all the time. The match was a high voltage one and Brazil had attack after attack on the Croatian goal, but didn't find one.

The full time did not bring any goal but still i enjoyed the game. Extra time is in progress, and it seems that eiter Brazil may make a decisive goal or this match may go into the Plenty kicks.

Just for the information, both teams have good plenty records and it will be anyone's game if we see the match goes that further.

The game becoming more tense as we are hoping for the best side to win the match. Brazil getting harder on Croatia as they're very good with defending the ball in other not to concede a goal. There's extra time and this is football, anything can happen in the game, but I'm fully in support of Brazil to qualify to the semifinal of the world cup. The both countries have their specific playing pattern, this is the time for Brazil to prove if they're worthy to fit in the semi final or not. They players agree to win the wordy cup for their legend, Pele who's currently ill.
