might as well go out now rather than get everyone’s hopes up and get to the final and get stuffed by France!

can't say i understand that in the slightest.

have to say though, hints that england tend to withdraw into their shells when put under pressure i reckon. Doesn't bode well against a strong france.

Right come on England just calm down a little bit and keep control of the ball.

Are Croatia starting to look tired or is that just wishful thinking

England needed this break for ET more than Croatia. They all look shagged.

Kane has been poor since the qualifying round. He’ll score in ET now of course. 😀

What ever the result is I have not been impressed by either team. I reckon it's France's world cup looking at these two. 30 mins to get yourself into  world cup final, may never happen again....go for it.

Yup, I predicted France for the cup. Thankfully I was wrong about also predicting us out to Germany on pens, but I don’t see us or the Croats beating France

I'm going to say it. England played better when Dele Alli was injured.

I have lost concentration after 90mins full time as it is rather stressful watching the match now ... 🙁

Exactly what do England have to do to get a free kick here?

@ Prince John....  What can Croatia get away with before the ref sees through it?

Can’t deny England’s work ethic, they’ve been all at it and are knackered.

Good show lads.

Absolutely.

England should have scored more before ... not enough killer instinct.

My forecast for next rounds:

Quarter-final stage:

Uruguay will beat France by 2 goals. (France won 2 nil instead 🙁 )

Belgium will beat Brazil by 1 goal. (Spot on! 😀 )

England will beat Sweden by 1 goal. (Almost spot on England won by 2 goals instead. 😀 )

Croatia will beat Russia by 1 or 2 goals max.(2 – 2 Full time, Croatia won on penalty 4-3  😀 )

Semi-final stage:

Belgium will beat France by 1 goal or maximum 2 goals. (France won by 1 goal instead  🙁   )

Croatia will beat England by 2 goals.  (who knows England might win by 1 nil)  ... Forecast looks on track 😀 , but England out 🙁  (Croatia 1-1 full time, Extra time Croatia 1 -0)

Final will be …

France (initially forecast was Belgium) Vs Croatia … both team can win by 1 goal or maximum 2.

I see Croatia winning the World cup.

Man of the match (England) ?

The goalkeeper, he’s been amazing (ignore the goals)

I don’t see Croatia beating France.

If Croatia can hold France off as they do to England there is a chance.

France got lucky beating Belgium as they won by 1 goal only.

The fighting spirit in Croatia is very good.

England had 1 shot on target. That's not ideal.
