Croatia’s defense was on display in the group stages, after limiting Belgium and Morocco to zero goals. Canada scored the lone goal against them, but this was the only game Croatia was able to get their offense going. The Starting 11 of Croatia dominated possession in most games, leaving it a bit even against Belgium.
The two centrebacks, Dejan Lovren and Josko Gvardio, have been stellar and overlooked as a strong backline at this tournament. With Luka Modric still working wonders in the midfield, Croatia just needs a few moments of magic to move onto the next round.
Japan’s Starting 11 shocked Spain and with a favorable draw, they took Group E over Spain and Germany. Beating both the giants, their loss was oddly enough to Costa Rica. Scoring was no issue for this group, posting four goals in the two matches.
Japan put two in late against Germany behind Doan and Asano. It ended up being Doan again capitalizing on the big stage with a goal against Spain. Tanaka ended up with the game winner and pushed Japan to the top of the group.
