Both England and Belgium will play their back ups. It will look like a rematch of the final game of Group G
Can't forget Sweden, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia. but.. how about this.. Smallest since Uruguay in 1950?
Very proud of this young England team. Bright future ahead, with multiple youth teams world champions. Congratulations Croatia, what an insane fight back.
Fair play. When Modric woke up in the second half Croatia got much better. Not to discredit Croatia in anyway, but is this the worst side to reach a World Cup final ever? Germany '02 comes close, but this side feels a bit worse. Nonetheless, huge achievement. Perisic and Modric were monumental in that second half and extra time.
Dammit. Needed to score more than once in the first half when Croatia were a mess. Before the tournament, if you'd said we'd get to the semis, I'd have taken it. And getting to the last 4 isn't choking, blowing it in the last 16 is choking. Or not getting there at all. They're a young team and it feels like the start of something. Bring on the Euros.
Hmmm..... Neither Croatia or England are good enough to be in final. But they got the easiest half to get there. That's it.
Nope If you are talking about their route their earned that route by beating Argentina 3-0 Also this was the path where Spain and Germany would have been
Sour grapes from a country which didn't have the quality to even qualify for the world cup.... Congratulations to Croatia.
Croatia deserved but we should have buried our chances in the first half. This was always going to happen..hope france hump em
Hardly. If you cannot get a single shot on frame in 124 minutes except from a free kick I’m not sure losing qualifies as unlucky
What are you saying? Croatia has played much better than any big names and right from the beginning till the end. Yes they were sleeping till the equalizer but then got their mojo back. It is going to be a great final and I am supporting Croatia. But you can say this WC itself is mediocre in terms of stand out performances.
No way Belgium is playing its back ups. Maximum 2 changes to destroy England. Although the game doesn't really matter much everyone wants to leave Russia with a good feeling after a won game
