Croatia vs Brazil records in FIFA World Cup
In 1986, Brazil and France were pitted against each other in the World Cup and the match ended in a 1-1 draw after regulation time. The two teams had to proceed to a penalty shootout to determine the winner and unfortunately, France emerged victorious 3-2. This was the only time Brazil has been defeated in a World Cup penalty shootout.
The team then went to the penalty shoot-out in the 1994 World Cup Final, where they emerged victorious over Italy with a score of 3-2. They would go on to repeat the feat in the semi-finals of the 1998 World Cup, defeating the Netherlands 4-2 after the game had been deadlocked at 1-1 after extra time. Brazil’s last penalty shootout was in 2014 against Chile, where they triumphed 3-2. Croatia has been three times in a position where its fate was determined through a penalty shootout in the recent past.
In the 2018 World Cup Round of 16, Croatia triumphed over Denmark 3-2 in a penalty shootout after the score finished 1-1 after extra-time. Ivan Rakitic scored the decisive penalty kick, while Milan Badelj and Josep Pivaric missed for Croatia. In the following match Croatia encountered Russia, resulting in a 2-2 draw after 120 minutes of play. Croatia then went on to win the shootout 4-3, with Mateo Kovacic being the only Croatian to not convert from the spot.
Croatia was tasked with a decisive penalty shootout for the third time in the 2018 World Cup during the Round of 16 against Japan. After two hours of play, the score was equalized at 1-1, and Croatia emerged victorious with a 3-1 victory in the shootout.
