"&lt;p&gt;               &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; ZAGREB, Croatia \u2014 Croatia ended Iceland's bid to become the nation with the smallest population to reach a World Cup, winning 2-0 Tuesday night following a 0-0 tie last week in the first leg of their European playoff.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Dario Mandzukic scored in the 22nd minute, then was given a red card nine minutes later for a studs-up tackle against Johann Gudmundsson. Mandzukic's goal came after Ivan Rakitic's cross was deflected into the penalty area by Ivan Perisic.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Darijo Srna added a goal in the 47th for Croatia, which won the home-and-home, total-goals series 2-0 and qualified for its fourth World Cup since becoming an independent state in 1991.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;WILSON: Kovac completes Croatia mission&lt;/strong&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Copyright 2014 Associated Press.
