I doff my cap to both sides. It was low grade quality but it couldn’t have been fought any harder. What a run for Russia.

As for Croatia, can they heal themselves in time to get a team out to face England? We know they have the backbone for the fight. I hope Gareth keeps keeping his side grounded. They should be confident and vigilant.

[bubbles1966]

We'll beat Croatia .

They look tired and lethargic with the exception of Modric.

It's all going to come down to a one-off game against the French or Belgians.

TBH was getting a bit fed up with all the Putin and fiddling stuff, funny as some of it has been. Russia punched above their weight and reached the quarters, fair play to 'em. Lousy first penalty. We've got the stronger of the two teams in the semi now.

I think rest of the world is rooting for Croatia.

[WCpete]

Must be an incredible feeling to win a match like this and then get to bring your kid onto the pitch.

I think rest of the world is rooting for Croatia.

All of the Poles, Yanks & even French (when it’s not them) in my life are rooting for England

I think you’re on wind up
