Luka Modric has admitted that Casemiro's penalty in Brazil's World Cup quarter-final defeat by Croatia was "too good" - despite telling goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic where the Manchester United midfielder was going to aim his spot-kick.
After Neymar gave Brazil the lead in the first half of extra-time on Friday, the five-time World Cup winners looked destined to progress to the semi-finals. However, Croatia, who reached the final four years ago in Russia, hit back in the second period of extra-time through a deflected effort from Bruno Petkovic.
It meant the contest went to penalties and Croatia were 4-2 victors in the shoot-out, inspired by the heroics of goalkeeper Livakovic.
