THE ESSENTIAL
Brazil face Croatia this Friday in the quarter-finals of the World Cup in Qatar.
The kick-off is scheduled for 4 p.m. for this meeting broadcast on beIN Sports 1.
More than ever favorites after their demonstration against South Korea in the round of 16 (4-1), the Brazilians face the first big obstacle in this competition with the reigning vice-world champions.
Modric and his partners were hot against Japan, but we remember their resilience four years ago, constantly jostled but always winning until the final.

8:30 a.m.: The challenges
Difficult to find a better poster to launch these quarter-finals.
Brazil, big favorite of all observers and even more since the rouste inflicted on South Korea in half time in the previous round, is rubbing shoulders with the reigning vice-world champions.
With a Neymar who will gain strength after his ankle injury, the Brazilians are sure of their strength, impressive on every floor.
But Croatia masters the art of arm wrestling better than anyone, agreeing to suffer to finally get out of it we don't really know how, preferably in the depths of extra time or on penalties.
She proved it four years ago, and again against the Japanese.
>> Because three days without a match is far too long, be there at snack time for the kick-off of the quarter-finals...
