AL KHOR, Qatar: Croatia have already ended Neymar’s World Cup dream. Now they hope to do the same to Lionel Messi.

Croatia, runners-up in 2018, are the next obstacle for Argentina to overcome on Tuesday in the semifinals as Messi aims to win the one major trophy that has eluded him.

But Croatia, who lost to France in the final in Russia, are on their own mission to go one step further this time around.
