Only chance at this point for Croatia is Brazil totally looks past them. Do their little dances, jump around, and think they're invincible. Otherwise if they show up focused, they will cruise to a world cup, nm beat Croatia

Lol at complaining at celebrating. As the old adage goes "If you don't want them to celebrate, stop them from scoring".

Nah, Croatia isnt worried about this at all. Sorry, but Korea's defending is atrocious. Croatia isnt going to collapse like this. It sucks that Brazil will be brimming with confidence, but the Croats know what they're about. They're a vastly more experienced team.

And its 4.
This wasn't a great Korean team, not as good as some previous versions. They leaked 3 against Ghana! They were lucky to play Uruguay first and Portugal last to get in.

Again, it just shows how hard the world cup is. This is Korea 10th consecutive appearance.

Teams that got in to the round of 16 because of capitalizing on other teams mistakes are seeing what it takes to go against teams that are on a different calibre.

No one can stop them.

Even Germanys celebrations were muted when they killed them in 2014 and they were killing the 5 time champions. At home. There was reason to celebrate.

Meanwhile the 5 time champions are gloating after scoring against a side who’s never made a QF. Even Tite is in on it. Grow up and be a pro.

Again I got no problem running up a score on any team. This is pro football.

Especially with how showboaty the prepped celebrations are. It doesn’t even feel like it is raw emotion, just something fun they came up with in the locker room. Nothing wrong with it when the game is close.

Richarlison turns into superman when he puts on the Brazilian shirt. Reminds me a lot of Miroslav Klose, a good club player but becomes a killer for the national team

Little bit different circumstantially when we're talking taunting in the home of a rather violent country with extremely passionate fans. That would have be ballsy as #### by the Germans.

When they're scoring gorgeous goals like this, the Brazilians can celebrate however the #### they want.

All I'm getting from this is that both their team and their fans are dbags.

they don't play each other

They want one half to play on Friday and the other half to play on Saturday. They have to move somebody.

It's a shame that goal on the penalty kick came from a dive. Every other goal has been really beautiful. Their attacking play is just creative magic today.

Interesting....subbing Alisson for Weverton to get him on the pitch for a few minutes.

Thats what you get for allowing a goal Alisson! You get subbed!!
