I have never understood Brazil's preference for weak shots at the opponent's keeper. That is mostly never effective.

It's exactly that inventiveness upfront that I was talking about earlier today.

Cameroon’s blueprint. Hilarious.

Brazil have been brainless tactically, epitomised by Danilo just now. Someone needs to tell them, this isn’t South Korea.

Croatia is probably the best coached team at the WC. They're getting more out of what they have than any of the remaining teams. Croatia is a real contender.

Neymar seems to be slowing down Brazil. Seems he is not 100% .

This was never going to be a walk in the park for the Brazilians. Teams are evenly matched so far..

Croatia slowly coming to form, they are a dangerous side, anyone thinks Brazil will walk over them today?
world cup is about peaking at the right time

At this stage of the tournament, team will likely be [evenly] matched and that's what we are seeing. In my opinion (prediction), this game will be decided by penalties

Again, the inverting Raphina, 36 mins in, proving to be the absolute wrong choice. Brilliant player, capable of the unthinkable, but Croatia are no mugs and cutting in-field into a busy midfield is school playground. With such a porous, understaffed midfield, they should’ve stretched the pitch much more. Croatia bossing midfield and reducing Brazil to Cameroon thus far.

I understand why Tite did what he did, but I would not have left Firmino or Joelinton at home.
