Day 18: Croatia vs Brazil | Netherlands vs Argentina (QF 1&2)

He should be changin Neymar, not Vinicus. There goes the vertical threat down the left.
Neymar has looked scared the whole game, not taking on his man like he usually does. Clearly reminded of his injury. Vini looked a threat at times.
Liking what I see from Livakovic - someone will be in for him in the summer
After the first game of the WC, or perhaps during, I wrote about Livakovic and Bounou of Morocco. Class the both of them.
This Croatian team missed Mandzukic. A Dzeko like striker right now would be an instant upgrade.
Saw Mandzukic on the bench and also saw Olic on the bench. Both Assistant coaches nowadays?
 
Needs to defo do that more. Hes shown he can do it.

He does a little skill that gets him nowhere then comes back inside way too often for my liking, but then again Raphinha does exactly the same thing.
 
When are we gonna admit Croatia haven't actually been trying to play since the Canada game?
 
Oliver doesn't give anything to Brazil
 
Oliver has decided who he wants to win this game.

Brazil are going to have to do it the hard way.
 
Neymar slows the Brazilian attack down. too many touches
