Croatia is not South Korea. It Croats did not loan for the show of Brazil in the quarter-finals of the Glass of the World. The 'cracks' Brazilian remained far of his best version, or at least of showed them in front of the Asian team in the eighth of final the past Monday, that in half hour already fell by goleada.

In fact Josip Juranovic, Croatian side, did to see badly to Vinicius in subjects of speed in several opportunities and finished sending to the bench to the attacker in the minute 60. Modric, Brozovic and Kovacic did to weigh his experience in World-wide and all his together minutes in front of a Brazilian selection that needed to begin the second time to be able to begin to find ways.

Tite Bet for repeating the eleven headline, but did not consider that his rival comes to be runner-up of the world. Paquetá Weighed very little during the 90 minutes, the same Raphinha, that went the first change of the technician when recently it began the second half. The Barcelona remained without going in in party, except an occasion that almost finished in autogol of Gvardiol.

Brazil had his best generation of talent from 2006 probably. Neymar Arrived more mature, but was unable to take the responsibility to take the first penalti of the batch, leaving the weight for an inexperto Rodrygo in these situations. Neither it did it in the penalti that could mean the elimination of his team and opted for seeing like Marquinhos, a central, went and tried to keep alive to the team pentacampeón of the tournament.

Very far to be the best

With the goodbye of Tite already confirmed, Brazil did not show to be the team candidate to the title of the Glass. Ney Invented a goal in the 105, but 12 minutes afterwards would arrive the tie. Tite Seems that it did not work with his players that in situations like those it is necessary to deliver totally in defence and not to allow remain badly stopped in the fraction 117 of party.

The fault of connection of the four attackers, independently of the names, showed a common team and current. Croatia recognised in disadvantage in the second time and from here tried to defend and arrive to his territory preferred: the extra time. It repeated the script in front of Japan and Luka Modric and his have left to the dance of the Brazilian stars without at all in the hands.
