Croatia defeated Brazil 4-2 on penalties and secured their place into the World Cup semi-finals after a 1-1 draw at the end of full time.
Croatia succeeded on all of their penalties.
However, Brazil had one of their penalties saved by Croatia’s goal keeper while another shot struck the post.
Earlier in the game, Neymar equallised Brazil legend Pele’s ‘official’ goalscoring record of 77 for the men’s national team with his goal against Croatia at the World Cup.
The BBC said Neymar’s tally is not an overall Brazilian record, with Marta having scored 115 for the women’s team since 2002.
