Croatia vs. Brazil
Road to Germany: Finished top of European Group 8 without loss.
Manager: Zlatko Kranjcar. Has been with the team for three years. Very popular in Croatia after a long career with Dinamo Zagreb. Captain: Niko Kovac. The 34-year-old Hertha Berlin midfielder may be beginning to slow down, but his experience is still valued by Kranjcar. He is no longer a first team regular.
