Croatia are still impressing the world with their outstanding performance. The team presented a thrilling game against the Netherlands in the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League, on Wednesday.

The Netherlands took control of the game early on in the match. Shortly, Donyell Malen give the Netherlands a 1-0 lead. 

Croatia didn't give up, and the team's Andrej Kramaric's penalty hit the equalizer for Croatia. 

After that, Croatia's Mario Pasalic scored to give them a 2-1 lead. 

However, Netherlands repeated their shocking return to the game (as they did in the semi-final of the FIFA World Cup against Argentina) and their Noa Lang evened the score against Croatia, 2-2. 

Once again, Croatia led a knockout game to the extra time.

During the extra time, Bruno Petkovic scored a goal to give Croatia the 3-2 lead over the Orange. 

Lastly, Croatia's icon and captain Luka Modric scored on a penalty kick to secure the 4-2 victory over the Netherlands.
