Croatia's come back from conceding in the opening minute of their round of 16 match against Denmark to dramatically earn a place in the quarter-finals of the football world cup in Russia
2 July 2018
They've edged Denmark 3-2 in a penalty shoot-out after the two sides had finished locked at one-all after 90 minutes and extra time.
Croatia could have wrapped up the result five minutes from time but Luka Modric had his penalty saved by Kasper Schmeichel.
Schmeichel made two further saves in the shoot-out, but his opposite Danijel Subasic made three to dump the Danes out of the tournament.
Croatia will face Russia in the last eight after the hosts sensationally beat 2010 champions Spain, also in a penalty shootout.
