El Tri are through to the knockout stages of the World Cup after a 3-1 win over Croatia, and will go on to face the Netherlands.
The end of the line for Croatia

Winslow Townson-USA TODAY SportsAfter a 3-1 loss against Mexico on Monday, Croatia are busy packing their bags, having failed to make it past the group stages of the 2014 World Cup. In 1998, their first appearance in the finals as an independent country, the team finished third, but since then they’ve gone backwards despite a quite astonishing collection of top level talent. And now the questions come.
When a team falls out of a major tournament, or even just fails to win a game against weaker opposition, fans often scramble to assign blame. The fault could lie with a biased referee or the cheating opposition. The players themselves could be the problem as well, particularly when sitters are missed or a keeper’s howler leads to a goal. And, of course, the manager is always fun to blame, as he’s the one tasked with finding a winning combination.
