The team sheets for the Brazil vs Croatia match - the first game of the 2014 FIFA World Cup - are out. It features Neymar, Modric and no big surprise.

The 2014 FIFA World Cup's opening ceremony didn't quite live to expectations. Reactions on social media portrayed it as "boring" and "horrible".

Even the ultimate performance of superstar singers Pitbull, Jennifer Lopez and Claudia Leitte could not offer the ceremony the explosive touch the public was hoping for, from a country like Brazil where carnivals are often spectacular.

In the end, this has left football fans even more anxious for the games to really begin. The first match begins at 16:00 ET / 17:00 local time / 20:00 GMT / 21:00 BST. It will put host nation Brazil up against Europe's Croatia.

Here are the line-ups:

Brazil XI: Cesar; D.Alves, T.Silva, D.Luiz, Marcelo; Paulinho, L.Gustavo; Hulk, Oscar, Neymar; Fred

Croatia XI: Pletikosa; Srna, Corluka, Lovren, Vrsaijko; Brozovic, Modric; Rakitic, Perisic, Olic; Jelavic
