ROSTOV-ON-DON, Russia (Reuters) - Croatia continued their impressive World Cup campaign by beating Iceland 2-1 to finish top of Group D but coach Zlatko Dalic warned his side against patting themselves on the back and urged them to focus on their last 16 tie against Denmark.

"What is done is done, we have to put these matches in the archives and focus on Denmark, that's our moment of truth and what we're waiting for," Dalic told a news conference after Tuesday's win gave them a perfect record in the group stage.
