In 1998, Croatia shocked the world by reaching the semi-finals before losing 2-1 to the host France. In the third place play-off match, Croatia defeated the Netherlands 2-1 to capture the third spot in the World Cup.

Also, South Korea became the first Asian team to qualify for the semi-finals in 2002. The Korean journey ended after losing 0-1 to Germany in the semis.

In the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Costa Rica presented spectacular performances defeating Italy, Uruguay, and Greece, before losing by penalties to the Netherlands in the quarter-finals.
