ATHENS, Nov. 12 (Xinhua) --- Greece and Croatia played to a goalless draw on Sunday evening at the Georgios Karaiskakis stadium at Piraeus, near Athens, in the second leg of the qualifying soccer play offs for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

The Greeks needed to turn around a 4-1 deficit from the first-leg match held in Zagreb last week to make it to Russia next year.

They failed to pull off a miracle and Croatia won the spot at the next FIFA World Cup finals in Russia.
