Croatia coach Zlatko Dalic called Brazil's squad 'scary' but says his team are not big underdogs in Friday's quarter-final against the World Cup favourites.

Croatia coach Zlatko Dalic called Brazil's squad "scary" but says his team are not big underdogs in Friday's quarter-final against the World Cup favourites.

Dalic’s side, runners-up at the 2018 World Cup, beat Japan on penalties on Monday to guarantee at least their third-best finish at the tournament. “It will be a different game than against anyone we have played so far because Brazil likes to play football. Croatia has refreshed their squad in the four years since the last World Cup, with only a handful of veterans remaining, including captain Luka Modric and winger Ivan Perisic.

“I wouldn’t draw comparisons to the team from 2018, when you look at our players then, they played for clubs like Barcelona, Inter , Juventus, Liverpool, Real Madrid of course.
