Mario Mandzukic and Darijo Srna are on target for Croatia as they get the better of Iceland 2-0 at home to qualify for the World Cup.

Croatia have qualified for the 2014 World Cup finals with a 2-0 aggregate victory over Iceland in their playoff tie.

Niko Kovac's side got the better of their opponents 2-0 at home on Tuesday, having drawn the first leg 0-0 away last Friday.

The hosts surged ahead in the 27th minute through Mario Mandzukic, who turned in Ivan Perisic's delivery from close range.

The Bayern Munich striker was sent off six minutes before half time for a challenge on Johann Berg Gudmundsson.

However, Darijo Srna doubled Croatia's advantage just after the break when he shot home after being played through by Mateo Kovacic.

Ivica Olic came close to making it 3-0 to Croatia on the hour mark when he rattled the Icelandic bar with an overhead kick.
