This game will be a tough one. Croatia played well against Japan and they deserve that place in quarters. I do think that Brazil has more quality and I'm sure that they'll do everything to win this game. But, I think that Croatia will be a tough opponent and it won't be an easy match for the Samba boys. Croatia will not make it easy for them and anyone expecting a one sided game, then you are in for a surprise. Croatia is a team that has been underestimated by many, but they will know how important this game is and they will not give up easily. I think Brazilians will have more chances, but you never know when can happen in football...


The match for Brazil against South Korea was a cakewalk, Brazil was the favorite in this match and everything turned out very easily for them. But in a match with Croatia, this is hardly possible, Croatia has a significantly better defense, that's what they will focus on, but Brazil has a better attack and this can become their advantage. Croatia is a very strong team, but Brazil is able to beat them at this stage.

Between these two teams, England vs Senegal, we have seen that England won the match by scoring 3 goals. Although Senegal had a great performance in the previous matches, they did not score any goals in this match.  This match was won by 3 goals. England team is much stronger now. I thought the game would be better.
England is a strong team, we all know that. Netherlands, France, Argentina are strong teams. They managed to go to the next round, but the star of this world cup will be Brazil in my opinion. If they raise another trophy this year, it should be considered very normal. They beat South Korea by playing top to bottom. They can easily pass that level in the next round.
In Brazil vs South Korea game Brazil played very well and Brazil won by many big goals.  Which re-introduced Brazil as stronger again. Brazil qualified for the quarter finals and will play with Croatia in the quarter finals. Maybe they will win that match too.  and will participate in the semi-finals . And maybe Brazil will face Argentina in the final match.  That would be a great match .
Knock-out games are meant to be tense affairs. I didn’t expect South Korea to match up. It wasn’t that Brazil weren’t taking it seriously. They were just so much better than their opponents they were devoid of tension. Croatia will be playing Brazil in the Q-finals. I don’t think Croatia can eliminate Brazil. They don’t really have the team to play this Brazil team.

in the quarter finals brazil will face croatia, as we can see croatia felt overwhelmed against japan and until finally it was a penalty shootout, i'm not sure croatia will win against brazil, brasil's steps will reach the semifinals it seems very easy especially since neymar's return from injury will make brasil a team which is superior

Croatia team is very lucky and tactical. They played defensively and drew goalless with the two strongest teams in the group, Morocco and Belgium. Against Japan they also aimed for a draw and they succeeded. Croatia will play the same strategy against Brazil in the next match. However, Brazil's forward players are in excellent form. I don't think Croatia will be able to stop Brazil even if they play defensively.

How I wish I could change my vote on this poll, Germany disappointed me and many other people, but the ones that did not vote earlier are now increasing the stake of Brazil which is, not a bad idea judging by what we have seen so far. I will never bet on Germany again, I was still giving them the benefit of the doubt based on their track record in such competition.

In recent reality, I believe that the winner of the tournament should be between Brazil, Spain and France, but I wonder why the vote of France remains at 5 (3.8%), it seems people have less up in them than I do. Also, my observation reveals that many support Argentina, but I can bet it with nothing, they will not lift that trophy.

I'm not saying that Croatia will definitely beat Brazil. I'm just saying that people shouldn't expect a one sided game like it was yesterday against South Korea.

This game will be a tough one. Croatia played well against Japan and they deserve that place in quarters. I do think that Brazil has more quality and I'm sure that they'll do everything to win this game. But, I think that Croatia will be a tough opponent and it won't be an easy match for the Samba boys. Croatia will not make it easy for them and anyone expecting a one sided game, then you are in for a surprise. Croatia is a team that has been underestimated by many, but they will know how important this game is and they will not give up easily. I think Brazilians will have more chances, but you never know when can happen in football...


Many football experts underestimated Croatia at the last World Cup in Russia, that we would not pass the group, round of 16, quarter-final or semi-final, and in the end Croatia played in the final and unfortunately lost to France.
And in this year's League of Nations, nobody gave Croatia any chance in the group with France and Denmark, and Croatia defeated both of those opponents away from home and won the group.
At this world championship, many experts once again believed that Croatia has no chance and will not go to the knockout phase of the competition, and then that we have no chance against Japan, but Croatia is now in the quarter-finals.
It seems to me that there is no national team in the world that is more underestimated than Croatia.
I listened to the comments after the match with Japan and I remembered one comment well.
At this world championship, Croatia is playing as Real in this year's Champions League. They are worse in every game, but in the end they win every time. Croatia, like Real, has that X factor and they always find a way to win, even though the opponent plays better in every game. That's why I think that Brazil will also have a very difficult time with Croatia, and anything is possible.

Croatia is improving after their disappointing group stage performance, but their quarterfinal matchup with Brazil will be very challenging. Their performance in the World Cup match versus Japan was their best. Croatia has World Cup experience after finishing second in the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Brazil will need to play better, in my opinion, to defeat Croatia. Brazil will not have an easy game like they did yesterday against Korea. Although Brazil has a stronger team than Croatia, we have seen big teams lose to smaller ones in this World Cup.
Brazil will undoubtedly beat Croatia. They have a much higher class of players. Croatia are in good shape right now, but they have some difficulties due to the change of generations. It reminds me of Spain, when they had the same change of players and the team didn't play well, as it was during the days of Xavi, Iniesta and Ramos. But now Spain are back in form. I think that in time Croatia will also be back in form with new players, having weathered the crisis.

Everyone thinks that Croatia will be a tough opponent.  If they made it to the quarter-finals, it shows their success.  They have a good defensive line.  They will want to maintain this quality against Brazil.  It's Luka Modric's last world cup and they want to give him the best gift.  Brazil, on the other hand, is at an excellent level.  They showed everyone how good they are in the South Korea game.  However, we should not forget that they lost against Cameroon.  Croatia definitely has a chance, but the team that passes the round will most likely be Brazil.

I don't actually know what to tell people that expected that South Korea Will Survive against Brazil. There is no how South Korea would have done anything better than they did against Brazil. The Brazilian side are too hot and too skillful to be held down.
There is no expected miracle that can happen, in fact let me put it like this, in this world cup the only two teams that has the ability to face Brazil and have a good result is France and England apart from these two countries no other country can defeat Brazil in this world cup

Don't underestimate Croatia. I know that Brazil is a favorite in the quarters, but Croatia usually plays it's best games against stronger teams. The problem is that Croatia played 120 minutes plus penalties and Brazil played pretty easy against South Korea. Additionally, Croatia played all four games with almost the same players and they must be tired. We will see but I really believe that Croatia can be a better opponent to Brazil than South Korea was yesterday.

meanwhile Croatia struggled a lot with Japan, they only won on penalties.
Now I can't figure out if Japan was very good (seeing where it arrived) or Croatia not at the top. I think it's the first solution, so yes I agree with you, it's better not to underestimate Croatia, it could give you a hard time.
Who knows, this world championship is really strange

Yes, Croatia struggled a lot against Japan. But as I said, Croatia plays much better against stronger teams that are not only concentrated on defense. Yesterday Japan was very concentrated on defense (they were playing in a 5-4-1 formation if I'm not mistaken) and Croatia always struggle against teams that play like that. I'm not saying that Croatia will definitely beat Brazil. I'm just saying that people shouldn't expect a one sided game like it was yesterday against South Korea.


well yes the brazil match was definitely a boring match
I didn't like it, I didn't enjoy it at all and I didn't see this great quality
from Croatia I expect him to give a hard time to all the teams he meets, his football school is very strong and has given us very strong champions in the past

Who would have thought Brazil could score a quick goal in the first half and even, with a 4-0 first half win Brazil seemed to no longer have the passion to score another goal in the second half. In fact, with a big win in the first half, at least Brazil could still score another goal in the second half, because of course the mentality and/or focus of the South Korea players was no longer stable.
But yes, South Korea can still minimize defeat by having one goal, at least it's still good for them compared to not being able to score at all.

With this result, at least it can prove that the big teams will still have a bigger effort in this knockout round, but in the quarter-finals later, of course, it will be a more interesting match because all the big teams or favorite teams will face each other.
Also with these results, it is enough to make me confident to bet on today's match at least for the favorite teams will also win. Even though Morocco in the group phase looked good but at this moment or in this knockout stage I am sure that the favorite teams will get the results they deserve.

that match happened yesterday and senegal was nothing for england with so many superstars playing on the club. The match between england against another country like france will be very interesting rather than the previous match when it was against senegal.
France itself has so many great players now but the history has said that if england was always dominating the france so many times. I have picked england in the match against france. It seems like that england will have a hard game against france very soon.
France itself has mbappe on it but england is having a good striker like kane.

In Brazil vs South Korea game Brazil played very well and Brazil won by many big goals.  Which re-introduced Brazil as stronger again. Brazil qualified for the quarter finals and will play with Croatia in the quarter finals. Maybe they will win that match too.  and will participate in the semi-finals . And maybe Brazil will face Argentina in the final match.  That would be a great match .

It was really unlikely that South Korea can do anything to stop Brazil from winning yesterday's game. The difference in quality is simply too big. Yes, South Korea had few chances, but even if they managed to score 3 or 4 goals, I believe that Brazil would have manage to score more. There is nothing South Korea could have done yesterday to win the game.

Indeed, the basic quality of the players of the two countries is very different, almost all Brazilian players have high-level skills and that makes South Korean players very easy to pass. Yesterday I thought Brazil would be able to score 7 goals considering that no one could stop Neymar, Richardlisson and Vinicious Jr.

I don't actually know what to tell people that expected that South Korea Will Survive against Brazil. There is no how South Korea would have done anything better than they did against Brazil. The Brazilian side are too hot and too skillful to be held down.
There is no expected miracle that can happen, in fact let me put it like this, in this world cup the only two teams that has the ability to face Brazil and have a good result is France and England apart from these two countries no other country can defeat Brazil in this world cup

Brazil appeared so extraordinary last night and it should be able to make France and England surprised by what they presented in the match. I think that indeed France and England should be wary of Brazil given that almost all lines work well. If they want to face Brazil, of course they all have to have the chance to get to the final, if not then it's clear that Brazil could win the 2022 world cup.

South Korea lost the match in the first half because they gave out four quick goals and it became very difficult to recover because the Brazilian team was solid. Kylian Mbappé and Richarlison are the most outstanding players in the tournament. These two youngsters have displayed quality performance and harvested some good number of goals. I am expecting Richarlison to replicate this performance in Tottenham Hotspur. South Korea goal by Paik Seung-ho was classic, it is a real consolation to a team that have really worked hard in this competition.

For the world cup competition this time, the two attackers had the same opportunity to spread their names throughout the world, with 5 goals scored from Mbappe and Richarlisson with 2 goals, making both of them in the top position of the world cup top scorer for a while. The goal from the Korean player's hard shot was very cool and it also made a great ending to this match.

Morocco cannot be completely underestimated because they demonstrate their strength in their group stage matches, as they are a team that no one expected to qualify and did so by topping their group with seven points more than Croatia, Belgium, and Canada.
Although we know how Spain's football team is, there is a good chance that they will beat Morocco's team because they have more world-class players than Morocco and this stage of the competition requires experience, which will be Spain's main hope today.

The fate of a continent with a population of about 1.216 billion in the world football stage is now in the hands of the Moroccan team. In terms of support, I think they have the largest fans in the world currently. A victory for Morocco is a victory for Africa. Spain is a very good side and it seems that highly rated teams are securing the quarter finals tickets. It would take a mixture of handwork and luck for Morocco to win Luis Enrique's warriors.  



I thought that after going through a difficult phase in the South Korean group stage, at least it would make Brazil feel difficult, but it seems that it was even unexpected that Brazil in the first half managed to score 4 goals and at the same time made the victory for Brazil so absolute. In the second half, South Korea managed to score 1 goal, on the other hand, South Korea also had many opportunities but was thwarted by the appearance of goalkeeper Alisson, who was extraordinary in being able to block shots from South Korean players. But I really salute and respect South Korea, they performed very well in this world cup.

I am really feeling sad about Japan. Yesterday night their team looked physically very strong to me. And they didn't look unskilled at all. They competed well against Croatia. What a surprise when you consider they beat Spain and Germany and got draw against Croatia within 120 minutes!
Brazil on the other hand is obviously very strong and I think they will also easily beat Croatia. I wonder who can stop Brazil.
The extra time that led to a penalty shoot out proved the enthusiasm of the Japanese players was very high. Unfortunately, they had to be eliminated in the penalty shootout. The Croatian goalkeeper who performed well in the penalty shoot out halted Japan dream of appearing in the quarter-finals. they had to admit Croatia's superiority even though in their hearts they were very disappointed because they had just been eliminated by Croatia.
After seeing how Croatia played against Japan, I can't say the game against Brazil will be easy for Croatia. Croatia performance is very good, they also have a solid defense, but facing a Brazilian full of world-class players will make it even more difficult for Croatia. Currently Croatia has not been able to stop Brazil because the quality of their squad is very much different.

I think that Croatia couldn't have gotten stronger team than Brazil in the quarters. They would play a lot easier against England for example. I'm not saying that England is bad, I'm just saying that the way Brazil is far better team. It will be very tough, especially because Croatia played 120 minutes plus penalties and Brazil beat South Korea fairly easy.

I don't actually know what to tell people that expected that South Korea Will Survive against Brazil. There is no how South Korea would have done anything better than they did against Brazil. The Brazilian side are too hot and too skillful to be held down.
There is no expected miracle that can happen, in fact let me put it like this, in this world cup the only two teams that has the ability to face Brazil and have a good result is France and England apart from these two countries no other country can defeat Brazil in this world cup

Don't underestimate Croatia. I know that Brazil is a favorite in the quarters, but Croatia usually plays it's best games against stronger teams. The problem is that Croatia played 120 minutes plus penalties and Brazil played pretty easy against South Korea. Additionally, Croatia played all four games with almost the same players and they must be tired. We will see but I really believe that Croatia can be a better opponent to Brazil than South Korea was yesterday.

@Docnaster I think that people are expecting way too many upset’s and when Korea didn’t win they’re feeling disappointed, but the simple truth is that Korea had almost no chance of beating this Brazil squad. Furthermore Japan on the other hand showed brilliant resistance and almost came close to causing an upset, however in the end their luck ran out and they were eliminated.

meanwhile Croatia struggled a lot with Japan, they only won on penalties.
Now I can't figure out if Japan was very good (seeing where it arrived) or Croatia not at the top. I think it's the first solution, so yes I agree with you, it's better not to underestimate Croatia, it could give you a hard time.
Who knows, this world championship is really strange

Yes, Croatia struggled a lot against Japan. But as I said, Croatia plays much better against stronger teams that are not only concentrated on defense. Yesterday Japan was very concentrated on defense (they were playing in a 5-4-1 formation if I'm not mistaken) and Croatia always struggle against teams that play like that. I'm not saying that Croatia will definitely beat Brazil. I'm just saying that people shouldn't expect a one sided game like it was yesterday against South Korea.
