All of the quarterfinal matches are finished.

And we could've seen few great ones.

For me, the most important was the last one.

And it was breathtaking.

I'm from Croatia, and this win meant a lot to us.

France
Belgium

In this part of bracket, we have 2 great teams.

Imo, both of these teams are better than the teams in other part of the bracket.

They basically have no weak players.

France could make 3 squads, and all of those would be a top10 world squad.

France had no problem beating weakened Uruguay.

Uruguay played without Cavani, who was their best player so was.

That was a bummer.

But France showed why they are one of the bests.

On the other hand, Belgium didn't have an easy job.

Brazil played really well.

And they managed to beat them.

Sure, it was a close one, and Brazil was a better team.

But the score is what counts in the end.

And Belgium won it.

Croatia
England

This one is really important to me.

We didn't get to semi-finals in 20 years.

Last time we got there was in 1998, and we won it.

Against Germany 3-0, if I'm not mistaken.

I wasn't even 1 years old then.

So, I'm experiencing this for the first time.

And, I'm glad we're facing England.

They are weakest team out of these 4.

They didn't show that much so far.

Besides few great plays from Kane, Walker, and their goalkeeper, let's say.

I'm sure we can beat them.

It would be a great thing for Croatia.
