They can walk over Cameroon, and hopefully, Mexico can tie them.

They get a hard time against Mexico oddly enough. They can smash through a proper team like Croatia but always end up stuttering against CONCACAF mediocrity like Mexico. (Even as a Mexico fan, I have no more than to admit we're rubbish right now, we hit rock bottom in that last Hex game and got to the WC by beating 'almighty' New Zealand.)

I've learned from today's game that Croatia's attack is terrible. I've watched them countless times attack on the wing (with exception to that OG), and give the ball back to the defenders. Luckily, Cameroon has a lot of holes on their defense, so that won't be a problem.

tbf, croatia didn't have mandzukic, but they were still bad overall

I've never even seen Croatia play and I can tell how they were feeling. The country isn't really that well known, the stadium was full of yellow and I could only count a couple of red and white checkered shirts. Also, they were playing against the biggest team in the World Cup. And for a game this big, they did pretty good. They made the Brazilian forwards struggle, they got them frustrated and then came the penalty. I could talk about this penalty for 2 more pages if I felt like it but you'd obviously stop reading. if you were watching the game, and if you were feeling the intensity I was feeling as Brazil's number 11 came up to perform his bicycle kick....then you would know how I felt when he *FAILED* to perform it. He *FAILED* to do it. The defender just got behind him, he didn't see him and he fell. Then comes the asian referee and grants the penalty which was a terrible call. I've re-watched that scene on ESPN, and listened to the commentary in English and in Spanish. Both mentioned how it wasn't a foul, just a simple mistake by the Brazilian forward. But, of course, the ref can't look at a replay during a match because it'd waste time. In conclusion, Brazil's win against devastated Croatia was luck.
