Croatia have only ever lost 2 games in the World Cup knockouts. A semi final and a final

Incredible for such a small nation

Well they've only ever reached the knockout stages twice. Totalling 7 knockout games. And they drew two of them (through on penalties)

Croatia falling into same trap Belgium did for an hour against Japan 4 years ago. Thinking they are too good for Japan technically and trying to keep it on the floor. They aren’t. Need to start putting more balls into the box.

Spot on, some really excellent technical players in the Japan side, plus their work ethic is top drawer.

I'll be gutted if Japan go out, definitely my 'second team', their enthusiasm and never-say-die effort is infectious. 

The Asian teams are just so likeable. No cheating or gamesmanship, or at least not much.
