I am beginning to get a bad feeling. The number of decent chances England have created and not buried leaves us open to a sucker punch.
But, this Croat team does not really have pacy players who can exploit the counter attack. Mandzukic is a big powerful CF, but can’t see Rakatic or Modric sending accurate long balls.
Only takes one fuck up though…
With respect to the Kane chance, I’m a bit surprised to learn that a player can be offside on their own shot.
This. And they’re getting sloppy with the back-passes to Pickford. This is shaping up for an if-only that gets replayed for another 28 years.
They can’t, I think it was flagged for his initial position. Had that gone in I reckon they’d have VAR’d it and it would show him level
England need to be careful or they’ll get Colombia’ed. Don’t let off steam and try and instead win the damn thing by scoring another.
Croatia will have to push up to try to get a tying goal. Bring on Rashford for Sterling and get a goal or two on counters.
WTF happened with that booking? He showed the yellow card to the wrong player?
I would bring on Vardy frankly.
I can agree with that. Hardy doesn’t need much help to be dangerous.
I wonder how many lifetimes I can live in the next half an hour?
It could be worse: England could be behind. ![]()
Watch the tennis instead?
Enjoy it. Might be decades before your boys reach a SF again.;)![]()
Walker’s pace bails us out a lot. Need him to get up.
You are a cruel man. ![]()
It was a bad day for Federer fans too.
That’s been coming. 1-1
Its 1-1. Perasic scores. Sorry, Cumbrian. Your fears were justified.
That took long.
Croatia scores!
Now, yes: ENG 1 - 1 CRO
