Can you imagine how psyched up Neymar and company are right now?

I'm not sure if I'll be able to handle it if Neymar and Eduardo are on the pitch at the same time.

Mandzukic is out for this game, right? Does Croatia have depth or do they shake up their formation?

I'm cheering for Croatia, but fully expect brazil to win. Hoping for a kick arse match to open the best sporting event in the world!

There are never scores in the thread title on this board. EVER.


ETA:

To all non-regulars:

There are no scores due to people being at work, etc. There will be no debate about this rule. If you post a thread and put a score in the title, the Admins will take care of you. DWI.

Have to imagine they'll move Jelavic to striker, maybe Olic. Both decent options.

Croatia are good enough to beat Brazil, but with the group being weak I think their goal will to draw or lose by 1 goal and take their chances with the rest of the group, of course they would like to win, but I see them playing compact and countering for 90 minutes.
