#4 Croatia 1-1 Denmark (3-2 shootout win for Croatia)
If this match happened in any of the last two World Cups, it would perhaps have ranked higher on this list. However, such has been the absurd randomness of this World Cup that a match of such improbability is just one of the many that happened at this World Cup.
Croatia were supposed to win this game with ease due to the fact that the Croat have arguably the best midfield in the tournament. And yet, they suffered. Within the first four minutes of the game, both teams had scored to make it 1-1.
After that, the no more goals were scored during normal time. Extra time ensued and Luka Modric had a chance to win it for his team in the 116th minute when Croatia were awarded a penalty due to a foul from Mathias Jorgensen.
But guess what? This World Cup just doesn’t let things happen normally. Modric’s penalty was superbly saved by Kasper Schmeichel. At that time, Denmark were on top morale-wise.
In the shootout, however, Subasic outdid Schmeichel as the Croat shot-stopper saved three shots while the Dane managed to block two shots. It was a match between the goalkeepers and in the end, it was won by Subasic.
