Croatian experts buried the spectacle at the semi-final: Biebera is better to have on your conscience than at a concert

Croatian experts Robert Matteoni and Vedran Ješe, commentators for HRT's program Americana, criticized the musical performances during halftime of the World Cup final. They were unimpressed by the acts, with Ješe notably stating that Justin Bieber would be better remembered than seen at a concert. The FIFA halftime show was an experiment aimed at bringing the World Cup closer to the American Super Bowl format, but initial reactions suggest it did not universally impress viewers.
