The decisive moments have arrived.
The Round of 16 in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar kicks off today (Friday) at the City of Education Stadium, when in the early game the Brazil team meets Croatia for the first battle for the ticket to the semi-finals.
The Salsao, who come after the great victory over South Korea 1:4 in the round of 16, look like the most threatening team in the tournament, and will want to continue their ability against the world runner-up.
Chicha stars Neymar, Richarlison and Vinicius continue to get credit up front.
On the other hand, Croatia, which did reach the final in the previous tournament, is a big underdog against Brazil.
The older team will hope to get a good game from their veteran stars Luka Modric and Ivan Perisic, and will try to cause a big surprise and qualify for the last 4.
