Exciting game. Nerve racking for sure for both sets of fans.

Alli off and Loftus-C in please. Alli has been a total no-show and is tired.

Just realized if England goes to final

United, Spurs, Chelsea and City have a guaranteed world champ.
 
Croatia with more 90 minutes at the end of this game. Feck it, they'll still be knackered when it comes to Euro 2020 qualifying.
 
Southgate needed to change things on the hour mark and he just sat on it.

If he had dragged Alli off and told Sterling to drop deeper we would now be jumping up and down looking forward tl the final.
 
Should have changed it on 60 when they started getting on top. We were all screaming it, so frustrating when they then score. We really need to take golden boy off, leave Rashford up top and shore the midfield, but it'll never happen.

It's still either sides to win though. Hopefully ours via Kane to shut me up.
 
England are so slow and lethargic second half. I still fancy Rashford (to score)
 
England fecked this up by being a bit shit on the ball. With a little more composure in possession they could have seen it out easily, Croatia were really poor right up until the equaliser.

Alli or Lingard should come off.
 
It's all well and good scoring hat tricks against Panama and smashing in penalties but Kane bottled it when it mattered most there.

Same as the rest of the team including the "ball playing", "composed" defence who struggled to get anywhere with passing and ended each passage with hoofing the ball up the pitch and shitting themselves when Croatia attacked them after the goal, shanking clearances out for corners etc

Need Lingard to get the assist when Rashford scores
 
Can’t believe NANIref has struck again.

I was naively thinking to myself after 60 minutes that I can’t believe how comfortable England are making a quarter and semi look, and was feeling shirtchanged on the blood, sweet and tears to get to the final. What a knob I am.

C’mon, England!
 
This England squad needed another proper centre mid and a creative type player for exactly these types of situations. Even a Juan Mata would be quite useful right now.
 
Croatia by far the better team in the 2nd half. I still believe come on lads! Kane has gone missing today :(

Perisic & Vrsajko the best players on the pitch.

Rashford to score the winner :devil:
