Croatia and Japan played an exciting game with plenty of scoring opportunities by both sides. After ending both regulation tied, and added time did not produce a result, PKs were taken and won by Croatia, who advanced.
I had thought that South Korea would put up a better fight, but Brazil took control early and never stopped scoring. They took their foot off the gas in the second half, but by then it was too late for South Korea to mount a comeback. Brazil shows why theyre the favorites to win it all.
