Croatia love their extra time.

True, but this will work in Japan’s favor: younger, fitter, more energy.

E.T. usually favors Croatia but they gotta be tired..

That's what we said last WC and they won 3 in a row. Granted they are now 4 years older but I don't think that'll be a factor

 

[Low End Derrick]

notice the Croatians are all standing up during this full time team talk on the pitch, while all the Japanese were lying down.

Mind games.

I mean you said it, 4 years older… that’s a long time in this sport.

Looking at extra time, why not get something as simple as a new shirt?

A wet shirt can't be helping with fatigue

Usually there's not much attacking in extra time. Teams close up and try not to lose, experience is preferred over youth in these cases.

Hopefully I'm wrong
