![BRAZIL OUT after PK loss to Croatia 👀 [FULL REACTION] | ESPN FC](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/2e32wi7gSIA/mqdefault.jpg)
They checked out mentally after their goal. You’re facing the FINALISTS of the last tournament. They’ve been here before, you haven’t, that’s what happens when you don’t respect that fact
Never underestimate Modric!
They should have had more respect for Croatia and faced them with do-or-die mentality. This is something the coach should have done to the squad as well. It just sucks because this Brazil team had such an exciting dynamic.
Mental Toughness.
Brazil had none, Croatia had a lot, during penalties
Real talk
Real talk
Not a good comparative, Brazil suffered a hard hit, Croatia did what they do in every World Cup.
When you concede a goal with less than 4 minutes to the end of the match the mental goes through the window.
@@DizzyMakavelli thats... exactly what having mental toughness is..... or in brazils case, lack there of.
@@DizzyMakavelli That's what he was saying - about Brazil. It's not the case with Croatia. They are a definition of mental toughness
I’m no manager, but I’d rather just always put your best kicker first 🤷♀️
Yes I don't know why they don't do it it would take pressure off the others a little bit they at least have two good penalty taker let one take the 5th one and one the first
Stevie was right...99% of the time it should not matter. People are being wise after the event
@Dan Whitehorse He has the best conversion rate ITW tho.
Psychology plays a role. If you at least nail the first one everyone else should feel better
@@daniel.whitehorse offense* 😘
Penalty shootouts have 1 rule : your best pen taker always goes first to set the tone. Your 2nd best pen taker goes last or sooner depending on the streak you're on
We are assuming that all those players that tool penalties are not good penalty takers
@@Abdullah-vg1uc Considering they practise pens in training, I’d assume the first five for every team would at least be decent. But things can go south quickly and usually the most successful penalty shootout for teams occur when the best player takes the first one. Compare Argentina the day later vs the Netherlands when Messi went up first to the 2017 confederation cup Portugal Chile tie when Ronaldo didn’t.
Not necessarily. I would probably put my best penalty taker at the third penalty since if you've missed either or both of the first two than that is a must score.
Casemiro should have went first
CROATIA MADE ME CRY TEARS OF JOY TWO WORLD CUPS IN A ROW 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭I LOVE MY CROATIA 🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷
Idiott cry later cuz croatia winning the world cup
I am a 100% BRAZILIAN fan for life congratulation to your team croatia and may they go all the way for your sake
Love it to
Not Croatian but I think they just might be World cup champion.
Where are you now
The selecao of 2002 had Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Roberto Carlos and Ronaldinho. They had the killer instinct and were bent on winning the trophy. They did. This team is all about the spectacle. I expected them to fail and they did.
Surely you won't say this if they have won. Stop commenting on your prophecy nonsense
@@izajahmed8863 there's nothing prophetic about what I said. Focus is extremely important in professional activities. Distractions lead to failure.
That team also really struggled during qualifying, they were mentally tough…. Especially those that played in France 98.
Brazil team didn't like to be put under pressure during the game, so when the players had the advantage they finally thought they would take the match to their control and then stop playing defensively. That was clear to me as a Brazilian.
NO. This Brazil 's defence is one of the very best I have EVER seen and a brilliant goal keeper, so they can handle pressure. The thing was that Croatia are a very good side and highly disciplined and organised, so it needed Brazil to increase the tempo and take their chances.
They increased the tempo in second half but did not take their chances
@@pentz1 they played a RB in LB position and a CB in the RB
it was close to 120 th minute. 2 hours intense football. Neymar was exhausted. Coach Tite needs to take him off. Instead of Pedro who were running for 50 minutes doing nothing play Martenelli more intelligent, skill and fast player. Instead of headless Fred who gave up his position play Fabinho, Bruno Gamuries. Put some defensive midfielder fill up the gape no space to run for opponents. it is almost 2 hrs everyone is tired so why take risk.
@@oBrunoo 100
@@nohandler1493 you couldn’t take Neymar off in case it went to pens or created another magical moment (even though he never got to take a spot kick and was rather invisible before the goal)
The teams with stronger mentality went furthest.
One of the things that make Brazil, Brazil is that they have to do it in their style. Their way. Most times they end up flying too close to the sun and getting burnt. But when they don't it is the most stylish football ever to be seen. Ref. Carlos Alberto goal 1970 final vs Italy.

@@pentz1 We are not in 20th century anymore.
Europeans teams have no fear when they play against Brazil in knockout stage.
How they didn't bring in Martinelli still surprises me
AGREED.
Because Tite is stupid. Thats why. Nobody is saying It. He lost us the game. Fred? not Fabinho? For real? The way Fabinho would have controlled that game and maybe take a yellow card there at the end to stop the play. Casemiro and Danilo could not do that because they had one yellow card each. Martinelli was much better than Rodrygo and Antony this WC and he played 0 minutes that match. Also leave Vini there. He is physical and talented and was our best player this WC. A injured Alex Sandro entered because Militão was tired (the only one who did not rest in the third game) and that cost us the game. Gabriel Magalhães should be called up instead Dani alves since Tite clearly did not Trust him.
@@FredEPLk Bringing down vini jr and putting on fred was huge mistake.If brazil had won from neymars goal,i would say they eere very lucky.Because fred has been mediocre.He ran for the ball despitr two agressive croatian midfielder and defender following him.He could have passed it to neymar and then neymar would pass on defense.But he ran for the ball to score the goal by himself when it was absolutely not necessary.And tite could have benched casimero when he got yellow card.And another big mistake is neymar and paqueta chosen to ran to assist fred while casimero was alone covered by modric and other strikers.Neymar and paqueta could have stayed in midfield then it would never happen.
Brazil has excellent players, but no team, no leader on the field, no team spirit of willingness to sacrifice.
Video of what Neymar is doing during the action for Petović's goal, nothing, he walks slowly on the field.
I recently had an exchange of opinions with an Argentinian fan. He says that the Argentinian team is ready to sacrifice it for Messi, but Modrić is ready to sacrifice himself for the team, at the age of 37 to sprint in defense and enter defensive duels, that's the "small" difference.
mate 33 year old tired asf perisic was sprinting down the field when orsic had the ball from the other side of the pitch and you see brazil's midfield and attackers slowly jogging back. that alone should tell you everything you need to know lmao.
as a brazillian, even though it hurts to get kicked out like that, we gotta praise croatia for never giving up, but also, we gotta remember, THIS IS FOOTBALL. having the "better players" will not garantee victory, this isnt basketball or baseball.
this is what makes the sport the most popular sport in the world. being superior on paper will only carry you so far. and time and again we are reminded of that.
Brazil was naive, how did you concede on a counter attack with 5 mins to go?
Criminal strategy, too much ego and horrible game management
I mean Croatia got world class players too. Champions league winners. Best Midfield FOR SURE. They controlled the match for a LONG time. But he’s Brazil should have been more disciplined
Well said
"better players" but Croatia had a better midfield
As a big Brazilian fan, I never saw them as contenders.. They are skillful yes, but not mentally great at defense. First they scored and celebrated like they won.. and then they had 5 mins of defense to do.. and even when Croatia went on final attack, the Brazilian forwards were still walking and not running to track back and defend the final Croatia attack.
they deserve to loose.
U are right in ur analysis. But I wouldn't say they deserved to lose.
We didnt lose
I watch ESPN all the time and the presenter is the best....how he makes jokes... 🔝🔝
greetings from Croatia.. actually from Germany but from Croat 🤣🤣🇭🇷🥇🏆⚽💪🔥💖🙏✝️
Argentina didn't have good game management either . They got lucky in the penalties. This could easily be two south American teams out because of poor judgement in the last ten minutes.
What this guy said about the penalties is so far fetched. If he takes the fourth whose available for the fifth? If he scores early it takes some of the pressure off and maybe that fifth pen goes in easier? It's psychological. Standing there watching miss after miss must be so hard.
Argentina were the better team that night. Simple as that
Argentina hater spotted. They were good and were the better team. Stay shut.
Argentina got screwed by being forced to play extra 15 minutes of football with regulation time with 2 of their best defenders being forced to sub our bc of the booking with Romero on Netherlands don't score a single goal, and the saves Emi made were absolutely amazing all well shot powerful kicks, anyone who thinks "Argentina got lucky" is a complete idiot.
@@rafaelvillegas2296 and Brazil wasnt???
@@blooopzz the better team doesn’t always win, look at england who were way better than us french and they still lost it because when we have a chance to score in front of goal it goes inside, we are just ruthless and solid mentally. All other teams especially south americans are fragile and weak in their head, that’s why they won’t win any WC any time soon.
Croations have the edge on experience and mental fortitude. Morroco vs Croatia in the finals maybe?
Brazil seemed to assume Neymar's goal had already sent them through. While getting over the hurdle of winning a trophy is extremely difficult, a long pedigree of winning them can eventually lead to a complacency that Germany appear to also be suffering from.

Strange that some people say Brazil got punished for naivety or being risky (shouldnt have been so high up the pitch before goal by Croatia). I see it as Brazil got punished for trying to kill the game - that is why they were in Croatia's half, trying to keep the ball and take it to corner flag. After 1-0 Brazil didn't try to score another goal and to close the lid. They became passive and played too much according to the result. It was too early to do so they got punished for it. And there is no guarantee that you dont concede goal if you stay in your half defending deep. It's also risky. Ideally, you have to keep opponent away from your goal. Thats why you move your line and press opponent.
Exactly.
The problem was that Brazil will plating upfront. They were not taking the game serious
They were naive!! you defend and press at that stage …everyone on the team 3 walls of 4 and 2 chasing the ball!!… it’s Croatia you know they gonna go to the whistle!!

Its only 3min left, Brazil could of just Sit on Defense and Win, but they keep attacking.
it was a real mistake. but I loved seeing Brazil being humiliated
The psychology is against the goal keeper, imagine scored all first 3 again the same keeper, it’ll definitely makes him question himself and panicked during 4th and 5th try. It’s as simple as that… Everyone who plays sports knows about the momentum the key moment that changes team momentum for the better.
Neymar after he scored that epic goal said to his teammates to maintain possession and fall back and defend. But they didn't listen.
Even though Brasil was great they missed a maestro on the midfield deciding the tempo. Casemiro is not made to do that.
Bruno guimares can
I mean Tite decided Fred was a better option than Bruno Guimaraes or even Fabinho😂😂😂😂
@@braulioandre2918 stupid coach. Fred is a laughing stock. Where is Bruno and Fabiano
@@braulioandre2918 Martinelli was also benched while he could have been used as attacking midfielder
I have watched Brazil on more than one occasion involved in a penalty shootout where Neymar has ALWAYS taken the 5th penalty, and it was the right decision. I wouldn't change anything. Penalties are always a lottery. The only question I have for the coach is Rodrygo being in instead of Vinicious or Richarlison (I would put one of them as the First Penalty). But having said that, rewind back to 1998 Brazil vs Netherlands Penalties in the Semi Final. Who takes the 1st Penalty? 21 Year Old Ronaldo. Rodrygo is about the same age.
@@Zach3striiipes That's exactly what he's saying lol
Yeah but I think 21 year old Ronaldo then was of a higher pedigree than Rodrygo
@@hi-ls6lt True.
Vinicius and Richarlison were already substituted
Brazil were just unlucky. they almost had it. For me, Brazil is still the team that plays better football. However, winning the world cup is difficult because there are other factors like injuries, red card etc... For instance, Casemiro could have stopped that attack by Croatia. Casemiro could have stopped it but he was already sitting on yellow card, if he got another one, and Brazil passed to the semifinal, he would not play that match. So , that is world cup. The match was 1-1 and penalties is just like lotteries. So , Brazil did well, they did not lose in the 90 minutes, they lost to penalties shoutout!
Nothing about luck when France will win it again for the first time in a row since WC was introduced. Our French team is just mentally stronger than any other team and we have the talent + the experience that will bring us the final victory 🙌.
Brazil’s team were already mentally fragile and not winning a WC for the past 20 years.
Before we win, France will have reached 4 times the finals (which is another record) in the past 20 years. Brazil only one, that says a lot about their psychology and mental game which is kind of weak.
@@zeebaron since the WC was introduced? it happened twice. Brazil ('58, '62), Italy ('34, '38)

@@crobeastness in the modern times, not in the last century.
And back then football was like playing softball, nothing compared to the level today. It’s like saying Uruguay winning twice the WC. Nobody remembers that and cares cuz it was at a different era when football wasn’t today’s football.
@@sebastianwilson8899 Exactly this - you score a goal in the dying minutes of extra time, then instead of consolidating and defending you decide to plant 6 guys forward and go for another goal. That and not have one of your best penalty takers take a shot, or that Croat implemented a game plan that shut brazil down and prevented them from playing as they want to, which Brazil couldn't find an answer to. That can be considered many things - arrogant, reckless, stupid - but not unlucky.
Make no mistake, there is always an element of luck involved in football. But these are factors that Brazil had direct control over and chose not to act on. And if Brazil are going to continue kidding themselves that it was due to bad luck/keep making excuses instead of taking responsibility for their errors, maintain their deluded sense of arrogance and entitlement, and then react by having a mental breakdown/surprised Pikachu face, star number 6 isnt getting sown onto their jerseys any time soon.
Seriously if a 7-1 thumping does nothing to change your mindset and approach, nothing will.
Pablo gotta be quite Croatia just might spank Argentina like they did 4 years ago 3-0
unlikely but anything is possible
Don’t get me wrong I wanna see a final Argentina vs Morroco
Key word 4 years ago both teams were completely different
Indeed very naive. Why commit a lot of players forward when you have the lead with 3mins to go? I was like, what is Fred doing by chasing after the ball all the way near Croatia's penalty box, when he was brought on to help defend😂😂😂😂
Brazil believed the stories about how good they were, and expected, carried away by the surrender of their previous opponents, that Croatia would "take off their underwear and get ready" for you-know-what. That won't work, play it and then dance..
God blesses you Neymar 💚
Let Neymar shoot penalty first to put pressure on your opponent. Missed opportunity!
The problem is the quality of our coaches. I cant believe so many people dont see that. We had the best players available (after France lost so many starters to injuries), but our coaches make stupid decisions from the squad selection to Key moments of the games. Belgium scored in 2018 because Felipe Luis was wrongly replaced for a injured Marcelo (and not as good defensively). Against Croatia the stupid Tite decided to take Vini so early which is the same as taking griezmann out for France. Nobody would do that. Instead of using Fabinho, he uses Fred (bench at Man utd). Instead of using Martinelli (who was the best against Cameroon), he used Antony. He even used a injured Alex Sandro because he didnt Trust Daniel Alves (who should not even be part of the squad). He also had to take out Militão because he was exhausted, and this happened because he did not call up enough defenders (like Gabriel Magalhães). The list goes on. Those decisions on penalties were pathetic, it shows no command, no planning and not enough training.
Brazilian fans should not be disappointed. After seeing Argentina destroy Croatia, Brazil would not have had a chance against Argentina.
BRAZIL would have mopped the floor with them...
Brazil understated Croatia. They wouldn't against Argentina
argentina got gift penalty against croatia. brazil didn't.
I thought each team has to submit the list of the penalty takers IN THE ORDER they will take them? If I'm right, you can't switch players. If it's still level after the 5 penalties, then anyone can go in any order. Can someone confirm or correct me, please?
We need that stat how many times in a world cup has the 5th taker not gotten an opportunity to take it

Somewhere David Luiz was still crying as well.....
With five minutes of extra time left, what did the Brazilians do, they started to slow it down as if they could naively run the clock down. THEY HAD THE WRONG MENTALITY NEEDED TO FINISH OFF THE GAME. I mentioned it to others as this was happening. They should have been playing HARD for the last five minutes. They have the skill to keep the ball, but they thought they were through. FOOLISH. If they were determined as a team to fight to keep the lead, which physically they are more than capable of doing, but apparently they were not mentally.

@@marlonwilliams1963 Yes they have the best players in the world. But they don't focus on teamplay. If they focus on teamplay like France, Germany, Spain. They can win every World Cup.
@@marlonwilliams1963Brazil only relies on individual skills. That's why they're strong against Asian teams but weak against European teams. Back in 2002 Brazil had very strong individual skills and great teamwork for example Ronaldo and Ronaldinho. Now Neymar and Vinicius doing their own thing showing off their dribble skills and that's it.
@@Landstalker1999 facts
Brazil didn't realize that it takes hardly 30 seconds to make an equalizer. They should have defended with tooth and nail in the last 15 mins. That was their cardinal mistake. The Manager has to be sacked if he didn't already resign. His strategy failed, the captain failed, the team failed.
They were naive and caring players like Anthony Fred shows they really are not the best team
Brazil should have defend that one nil base on how the game went.
Stevie's right on penalties
Welcome to the club, Neymar! That's how Croatia felt after lost against Turkey in Euro, we received a gol in last minutes and lost on penalties.
Tite was the problem
No your entire Set was Naive! All picking Brazil from the beginning even after they never looked good really then saying they looked good and All of you kept picking Brazil to Win it all-Brazil scored in the 1st half 1 time out of 4 games and the time they did score was against a terrible South Korea team who should of even been there. Argentina & France are the best two teams and have looked the part from the beginning. Even Argentina losing 2-1 the first game was really a 4-2 win and they had 3 goals called back. Just Man Up and admit Brazil wasn’t as good as All of You kept saying there were-I don’t want to see excuses from you guys
he has 4 full years to find the answers... but at the end it's simple.. it's football at the highest level... much way too different and difficult from clubs tournaments.
Argentina about to underestimate Croatia as well
The fourth had to score or out. Neymar PK percentage is 100% for the last 3-4 yes. Based on math, not putting Neymar on fourth was stupid. Forget football for moment but look math
Brazil needs to HIRE Tata Martino...dude was awesome with Atlanta
I think anchelloti would be better
You mean the guy who failed with Barca, Argentina, and Mexico?
And Brazil haven't hired a foreign managers in 60 years
Brazil will never hire a foreign manager for their seleçao, they’re too proud of a people
Tite gave away the match when he brought fred flingstone he should have brought on fabhino tite made the same mistake he 4yrs ago and i thought he would learn
Ya bro I was thinking the same as you said. He is the main reason, that my beloved team is no longer in the world cup. His substitution during regular time and game management after that much needed goal was unforgivable. He should be punished for giving us so much pain again after 2018. I am still depressed and confused.
So now he is in the maldives
Forza Italia 🇮🇹⚽⚽⭐⭐⭐⭐
A stronger confederation (CONMEBOL) would keep the likes of Brazil and Argentina honest. Contrary to the popular belief that, for whatever reason, continues to circulate, the South American qualification system is not the toughest in the world. It's a walk in the park for Brazil and Argentina. Uruguay is the anomaly. Ecuador produces good teams on occasion but relies heavily on home advantage. The rest of the teams are absolutely dirt poor. It's easier said and done, of course, but strengthening the bottom five teams and their respective leagues would change things. It would raise the standard and expectations.
Brazil and its fans still live in the past: Pele, Ronaldo are not on your team anymore, Wake up!!!😦😦😦
As much as I don't like Argentina's style of play and their arrogance... I have to agree w zabaletta. Bra just needed to defend for the last 10mins and protect their lead. No pride lost in that.
Shaka Kahn and Steve talking their load of poopers as usual.
when Argentinean coach substituted de paul for that dmf, they were fucked. If he make mistake like that against Croatia, bye bye cup
Stevie on the ball, NOT! 4 penalty shoot outs so far and only 1 has gone to 5 pens.
Brazil needs too get off its high horse and be a bit more humble. Fact is … they’re not as good as they think they are.
(Same with England).
With all those stars Brazil still couldn't beat an old team with no superstars in croatia, but no one is trolling them but they are showing them sympathy
U don't know ntn about football if u say Croatia is old and they have no superstar
FINAL: ARGENTINA vs MOROCCO
He will partying in dubai for sure...he do not care about winning 🤣
People need to stop bringing up the 5 World Cup championship titles Brazil has,…..while it is impressive it is not who the team is….it’s a new World Cup every four years and there have been other champions…many of those cups were won in the past century…not in current times….football is changing the giants of the game are not so big anymore.
Brasil loose game in 1 half..
I am so disappointed.
As an Argentina fan I want brazil vs Argentina semi final ❤
But it really neymar didn’t deserve this❤😢
Yeah..but we in Croatia also have plan..we wait for France in Sunday bro..
you wanted
As a Brazilian, I agree! That's always the best football game to watch between those two countries. 😝
pigeons will be disappointed Brazil are out.
Brazil choked in 2014, in 2018, and again in 2022. You can dance all you want because you love yourself, but you're not fooling anyone.
They literally stopped playing after Neymar scored .. Neymar was just walking around.. 5 players beyond the half way line and the whole middle of the pitch wide open!!!. Brazil 🇧🇷 is a Soft entertaining team they don’t understand have the Grit!! to win against the big teams that go toe to toe with them!!
The crowd that cheered for Brazil in Qatar does not do justice to the true lover of football in the country. Don't confuse things.
Messi will be destroyed next, Pablo.
