Fifa world cup 2014 is in the eyes of everyone nowdays. This time its going to be Brazil and Croatia opening this most awaiting world cup and if we recall , we’ll know that back in December these two countries would participate in the epic tournament’s first match.
Out of Brazil, mexico and Cameroon in group A , Brazil is favourite one. It will be interesting to see which of other team advances.And a lot of prediction there that Croatia will score first.
Scoring first is no easy task or we say scoring against Brazil. There will be a lot of excitement by crowd for the world cup opener. Poor defence management by Croatia needs lot of hard work.As best defence sometime is best offence.
