France vs Croatia | Croatia Analysis

Leaving the luck factor, Croatia can rely on the strong spirit strength in the finals. Croatia has taken the lead in three consecutive knockouts, and finally won the game under the wind, making the players more mature and more tenacious. This kind of cohesiveness has enabled every player in Croatia to play a high standard, and the combined force has improved the integrity of Croatia. The distance between the lines is very reasonable and the formation is compact, which is slightly better than the French team, Judging from the previous games, Croatia's are either weak, nor lack of midfield leaders. But they have not encountered a strong line like France.


In addition to the quality of the will, Croatia's biggest advantage is that the midfielder has dual-core Modric and Rakitic. If the two cores are liberated like the last game against England, Croatia's offensive creativity will not be inferior to that of France. But if Modric and Rakitic are frozen, then Croatia's offense will be limited to two sides, the threat to the French team will be greatly reduced, due to the lack of high-level players on the bench, Croatia also lacks enough substitutions. The odds of winning are surprising, and the offensive prospects are not optimistic.

In this game, Croatia needs to grasp a large number of offensive opportunities. Positioning the ball and long-range shooting should be an important breakthrough. If they scored the first goal , Croatia will have a great chance of winning. But if not , Croatia will have to reverse their hope.
