Croatia was manhandled by Brazil. Croatia threw just about everything but the kitchen sink (not that it would have helped), and came up short - way short. To give credit where credit is due, Croatia did try their hardest - it just wasn't enough to beat a lazy Brazil. When shooting at the goal, it is wise [b]NOT[/b] to shoot the ball directly at the Keeper - not that Croatia had all that many chances. Late in the second half, I thought that maybe Croatia would get one as they put everything into a last, final effort. It came up way short, and that took the rest out of the Croatian team apparently. One could almost see the desperation oozing out of the Croatians at the end. Brazil just putted around the green, shot a goal, and then went home. Unspectacular but effective - a very unusual tactic for Brazil but I think in this case it threw Croatia so off it's game, that it actually worked. I personally was pretty much shocked at the laid-back approach that Brazil played (and that is how they played) - but apparently it was how they wanted to play Croatia and it worked. God forbid that Brazil really tries in a game! Anyway, Brazil is through as Group Winner IMHO. Even a "bad" Brazil is good enough to beat a very determined Croatia! The France vs Switzerland game was....non-eventful. I think it was perhaps the best thing that S. Korea could have wished for. Both teams were sluggish, dull, and uninspiring. A fustrating, uneventful match. If they both play like that against S. Korea, well, good for S. Korea!
