Who is Croatia World Cup star Dominik Livakovic? Yet the Selecao didn't have it all their own way at Education City Stadium on Friday. Croatia showed that trademark resilience that made them World Cup finalists back in 2018. Luka Modric and Mateo Kovacic, two of the more well known stars of the Croatian team, were integral once again in midfield. The European nation actually dominated long periods in the first half, but were heavily reliant on goalkeeper Dominik Livaković to keep Brazil at bay in the second half. They had eight shots but none of them found their way past the Croatian No.1 – described as "the man of the game" by UK pundit Micah Richards afterwards. The Sporting News provides some background here on an unexpected star of the World Cup knockout stages. MORE: Brazil vs Croatia live updates from World Cup quarterfinal Who is Croatia goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic? The 27-year-old Livakovic is a goalkeeper for Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb. He came through the academy at rival side, the amateur outfit NK Zagreb, before making his senior debut in 2012. In 2015 he sealed a move to the bigger side, 23-time Croatian league title winners (and current reigning champions) Dinamo. He's named Manchester United's David de Gea and Spanish icon Iker Casillas among his goalkeeping idols. Where does Croatia goalkeeper Livakovic play? Dinamo Zagreb retain Livakovic's services and the goalkeeper has never played outside of his home nation. He has picked up 38 caps for his national team, though, making his debut in 2017. He and Dinamo Zagreb might find that, after the World Cup in Qatar, the keeper receives some transfer interest. He made more saves in the 90 minutes against Brazil – that ended 0-0 – than opposite number Alisson had in the entire tournament to that point.

Livakovic contract, transfer fee His current contract expires in June 2024 and his current transfer value, as per Transfermarkt is €8.50m – although it will no doubt increase potentially by more than double after the World Cup. He's been linked with a potential move to Turkish club Fenerbahce in the past, but could attract Premier League or top European league interest in the future if he continues with such displays as the one versus Brazil.
