I think this game is going to be the hardest to predict at least it is in my case. While Russia seems to play well some of the time they are not consistent enough. Croatia can play rather well and I believe they are going to be a torn for Russia. I will say final score on this game Russia 1 Croatia 2.
Yes, very exciting match only to see it end in an anti-climax because two of Russia's penalty takers hit the ball as if they wanted the Croatian goalkeeper to get it. This only helps to bloat Croatia's pride - I was hoping Russia would win.
Final Score: Russia 2 (3) - Croatia 2 (4)
Goals by: Cheryshev, Fernandes, Kramarić and Vida.
