Yeah, they were just saying Croatia has basically played an extra match in the knockout round because of the two extra time matches. They look uncharacteristically scattered and nervous.

Has England scored a goal from open play in this tournament?

Has anyone?

The US commentators said 8 of 11, so 8 of 12 now. (England goals from dead ball situations)

England is going to win this World Cup, aren’t they?

Between the Caps and possibly this, goddam

Whoops, yes.

And the three goals from open play probably against Panama.

Postby **shafnutz05** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 2:26 pm

What a giveaway there...and Kane was juuuuuuuust a bit offside

And the three goals from open play probably against Panama.

And one of them was an accidental deflection.

Lovren is not going to finish this half at the rate he's racking up warnings.

Postby **tifosi77** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 2:41 pm

One thing I will say, Croatia are so disorganized they are keeping England engaged in attack.

Postby **shafnutz05** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 3:22 pm

Croatia starting to threaten...

Postby **shafnutz05** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 3:30 pm

Yea boi

England are a mess since the equalizer.

Postby **shafnutz05** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 3:44 pm

OMG Croatia has come so close so many times...come onnnnn

Postby **shafnutz05** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 3:55 pm

It will be interesting to see how England regroups going into extra time. Hope Croatia doesn't regret some of those near misses (although England had several in the first half).

Postby **tifosi77** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 3:57 pm

Collectively, Croatia's midfielders have bionic lungs.

Postby **Freddy Rumsen** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 4:14 pm

Croatia starting to play like France.

Postby **tifosi77** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 4:19 pm

What a waste of a corner.

Postby **tifosi77** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 4:20 pm

I find Pickford intensely unlikeable.

Postby **Freddy Rumsen** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 4:25 pm

Play not to win means you lose Gareth Southgate.

Postby **Freddy Rumsen** » Wed Jul 11, 2018 4:25 pm

Luca Modric...man of destiny.
