Adding another shocker to the list of upsets in Qatar 2022, Croatia sent five-time champions Brazil packing on penalties to march into their second successive FIFA World Cup semi-finals.
Dominik Livakovic starred for Zlatko Dalic's side by braving the Brazilian attack for large parts of 120 minutes. Neymar broke the deadlock after dancing past the Croatian defence around the 105th minute mark, only to have his goal cancelled out by Bruno Petkovic's deflected strike in the 117th minute.
The match headed towards penalties wherein Nikola Vlasic, Lovro Majer, Luka Modric, and Mislav Orsic converted their spot-kicks. Despite Casemiro and Pedro getting the better off Livakovic, the Croatian custodian denied Rodrygo from scoring and Marquinhos hit the woodwork, thus eliminating Brazil.
