Too Predictable
As you can see from this picture, and this one, and, what the heck, this one, the Croatian fans were fairly lively, colorful, and....predictable. On Sunday, that pretty much summarized Equipa Croatia in its 2nd World Cup game. Against Japan, a team it was expected to beat, perhaps not soundly, but definitely, a 0-0 tie resulted.
Even with the gift of a penalty kick, Croatia could not pull it out. Kudos to the Japanese Goalkeeper, Kawaguchi, who guessed correctly as to where the kick was going to go.
Now, it's June 22nd and the hope that things go Croatia's way, in a predictable manner or...not. Otherwise the Japan-Croatia game will be grist for the cafe/taverna mill for the next four years
Well, at least the kick wasn't a Baggio.
