The Croatian national team created the sensation of knocking Brazil out of the tournament on penalties. The team around superstar Luka Modric won 4: 2, also thanks to keeper Livakovic. For a long time, the Seleção had struggled with the robustly defending Croats. The Brazilians only managed to create chances in the second half, but without success. The game went into extra time at the Education Stadium in Doha with a 0-0 draw.

When the Brazilians looked set to win, Croatia equalized through Bruno Petkovic in the 117th minute and it went to penalties.
