Quite the opposite actually. The ref called a consistently tight by-the-book game.
I agree with everything you said but there was nothing there for it to be a foul. Olic kept his arms down and he had every right to that ball, especially since he had position on the keeper.

Unfortunately for Croatia all the 50-50 calls (if they can be called that) went in Brazil's favour
