CROATIA KNOCKED OUT DENMARK BY 3-2 IN THE PENALTY SHOOT-OUT ON 01.07.2016 IN THE FIFA WORLD CUP OF 2018 !!!

"Within 2 minutes of the match,
Mathias Jorgensen of Denmark scored a goal to take
1-0 lead against the Men in BLACK.
Just within a few minutes, Mario Mandzukic of
Croatia scored the equalizer and in this competitive match,
it is surely a very quick COMEBACK.
Both the goals looked so simple,
as if the quality of the goalkeeping
was not upto the MARK.
Denmark was not getting too much space
as a strong and organized control in the midfield
region is, as usual, Croatia's TRADEMARK.
The match on 01.07.2018 went to extra time, as in
90 minutes, the defensive zone of both the teams
looked so solid and TIGHT.
Despite so many attacking moves from both flanks,
Croatia failed to score against Denmark, the team which
counterattacked and continued the FIGHT.
Due to a foul tackle at the penalty box,
an opportunity to score a
goal missed by the Croatian, KRAMARIC.
Croatia got a penalty,
but, alas, what a waste
of that penalty shot by MODRIC !
The match of Croatia Vs Denmark
in the 'Round of 16' stage, finally
went to the TIE-BREAKER.
What a match ! What a drama ! Finally, Croatia won
it by 3-2 in the penalty shoot-out, which was
so thrilling and almost a BREATHTAKER.
As the match progressed,
it became the battle of
Danish, Schmeichel and Croatian, SUBASIC.
Ultimately, Denmark got knocked out,
as the victorious goal got
scored by the Croatian, RAKITIC."- Arindam Sain
