Croatia defeated Brazil to advance to the World Cup semifinals

After their World Cup quarterfinal tied at 1-1, Dominik Livakovic saved Rodrygo’s first penalty and Marquinhos struck the post to secure Croatia a 4-2 shootout victory over Brazil on Friday.

Neymar’s extra-time solo wizardry gave Brazil a 1-0 lead after 90 minutes of play ended without a goal, but resilient Croatia didn’t give up, as Bruno Petkovic’s goal in the 117th minute tied the game and forced penalties.

Croatia will now wait to see what happens in the game between Argentina and the Netherlands on Friday.
