As I've said a million times, you can take the goalie out of the equation with a quality pen
Brasil did not deserve to go through!
They had the big guns and fired blanks.

Feel a bit sorry for Neymar, but Brazil were awful. Deserve to go out.

Well played Croatia, great result for them.

3.6 outright, pure insanity
Happy for Croatia, but sad to see Brazil go out, solely for those little pieces of magic that the World Cup needs
Keane was right the other night about the dancing. I bet the manager isn't dancing now.
Well played..? did you watch the game? they are like watching an average west brom team
Croatia are the new Germany on penalties
Knew I was fooked once that goal wemt in

Theyre dogged you cant deny them that
Brazil were no better sadly, poor tonight and got binned
how can they look so good in the last game .............er they were playing the dog and duck!
they had to score that 4th pen, and Neymar says up you go mate. that was cowardly.
Croatia, they just don't give up.
That was grand to watch.

Croatia played it perfectly. They got a big slice of luck, but overall their game plan worked, and Brazil didn't do enough.
Croatia are just so determined and a great example of a team beating individual stars.
For a country with a population much smaller than Scotland, Croatia have done fantastically well in major tournaments.
Where are you Scotland?

agree very dogged etc, like Tony Pulis teams of years gone by...
Penalty takers,is the order sorted out before with a list?.
Croatia will probably beat Argentina as well thats the thing, they are like ice cold on penalties ffs
Astonishing. Didn't see that coming after they went ahead in ET. Shoulda kept it tighter towards the end and gone into 'Morocco Mode' defending!
Croatia the most never beaten team in it. Nearly always go to ET at least tho
Well done tl the 55/60 Coratia backer as well, whoever it was a few days ago

apart from the one of the finest ever central mf's playing at a level most only dream of and the whole side played at a high technical level throughout...but yeah.. apart from that...

Technical..? were you watching the same game? Dont think they made more than 10 forward passes all game.? Did Modric leave the centre circle..?
Always amazing how the egos bottle it when it comes to big pressure penalties.....Neymar, Sterling, Grealish
Great to see less competition for England left in the comp though.
re-watch it switch you might learn something...
you won't be the first to barely notice...many football mugs don't...

croatia got a total fluke. that shot is worse than a daisy cutter going straight to the keeper.........takes a wicked deflection.
its all written in the stars for messi now...........no excuses...........easy path to the final, not having to beat the three best teams in the competition - brazil, england and france.

Got caught 3 v 3 when not needing to score.
Absolutely shocking.

Plus no Martinelli was scandalous.
Would've won in normal time with him on.

Brazilian goalie stands still first two pens and makes the Croats look mugs -so why does he dive?

Then 3 retreated to box allowing winger acres of space

Croatia did a number on them sorry switch
Leaving bias at the door and money out of it Brazil were stopped simple as that
They then had a chnce to hang on to something and went full nuts with 4 minutes left, Croatia then never looked like missing a penalty, absolute ice cold some of those penalties were corner of the net unsavable

First one was slightly iffy, goalie a bit early going but the others were ice cool esp 3 and 4
Even though Holland have been poor, they are improving as the tourney goes on. I have a feeling they might do a number on Messi and his mates.
Brazil stopped themselves.. its great for any England fans though. If we face croatia i'll be the first to offer 8's on them in the 90 min market
have backed france ante post at around 7 on here and nedderlands today at 19 on here earlier ,would love england to win it but wont jinx em with any of my money sont .
Croatia will again have olayed a sh!t ton of football if they get passed the next, possibly another extra time incoming as well
They will be tired again by the final and England/France would be licking their lips

Brazil still not beaten a European side in the ko stage of the WC since 2002
They were hopeless today, none of their attacking players turned up. Neymar tried hard, and almost saved the day with a brilliant goal, but they were found wanting against a team that weren't willing to let them do whatever they wanted.
Neymar took that goal well but was atrocious apart from that. Continualy lost the ball and arsed around the pitch
a bloke who was in a relegation battle at Leeds last year...one at Everton last season as well...
a 70m wide player who only has one trick (all be it a good one)...
not quite '70 and '82 is it ?

Why did nobody take out the Croatian breaking forward with
2 minutes to go.
Take the yellow, regroup..

Tiredness won't be a factor.

Most were up the other end like they were the ones chasing a goal 
Racingqueen, did you seriously mean that Grealish can be mentioned in the same breath as the top 50 players in this tournament? Total poser.

No just that its always the loud ones who go missing in action

if you could hand pick 50 players from the world cup I'd probably take Grealish....
brazil seem to have a lot of wingers and attacking midfielders and are short of out and out strikers..............so many similar players. lots of good players but no outstanding ones.

Brentford is correct. The problem with International football now a days is that friendlies mean next to nothing hence you get half decent players racking up high goal tallies over their careers like Richarlison
Raphina has been awful in this tournament
Fred has been awful for years
Paqueta is not a central midfielder
All whilst the best midfielder in the PL Bruno Guimaraes sits on the bench.
Richarlison is a rag average player. Perfectly suited to Everton a mid table club. Making an absolute ar5e of himself against Notts Forest acting the hard man.

Kalvin Phillips, Jordan Pickford, Sterling?
not sure Sterling was in any relegation battle lurka...
you'd note Brazil were sub 2's and started the tourny at sub 7/2....
what's your point ?

Pickford was in a relegation battle at Leeds, Pickford at Everton. What was your point?
Making the same point you were presumably. England also have an 80m CH who can;t get a game at his club.
Don't hear the same criticisms

2.5 today, insane mate
Agreed. 5 WCs in a row they've gone out to the first decent euro side they've faced. Always overhyped based on performance in south america which is never a barometer of how good they are.
Today will mean almost 30 years since they made a final
Croatia know how to stop a team playing and sadly when it comes to penalties theyve been attending the German school on the.
Argentina have 4 wins in 5 so arent to shabby on them either, be funny if that game did go to penalties
