If Croatia win the World Cup then surely Modric is in with a shout for the Balon Dor?
A dab hand at this football malarkey eh?
France played 90 minutes and have an extra days rest, Croatia have gone in to extra time in their last 3 games, I can't see past a France win.England can be proud. What an effort they have made. It wasn't to be this time, it's painful to lose, but England's players represented brilliantly. Well done to them all. Commiserations to our English bears, and any England supporters using FF. Next time !
Croatia will test France. They are a very, very good side and deserve to be in the final. Beating Russia, and beating England is no small thing. Croatia v France will be a fantastic final.
Lacking in midfield but ok at front and back. Everyone suspected that and so it proved today. But they sneaked another in the first half hour and they’d probably be in the final. Small marginsFirst time England were tested tonight and failed.They are not as good as some make out.
Away and dry your eyes.. If that was disallowed for us against the scum you would be rioting......I’m sorry but that is absolutely complete and utter pish as you will see clearly from this clip.
Perisic clearly jumps in with his foot raised, the foot is undeniably in a high position (above waist height) and the goal should have been chopped off.
Yip, I’m a simpleton.Simpletons logic.....pish teams find ways to make their way in condesend tournaments....see Sweeden - one of their better players is Micheal fucken Lustig....

To be fair they were pish up front too - Kane was terrible, Sterling's pace was a threat but did f-all with it. Rashford tried I guess.Lacking in midfield but ok at front and back.

- Harry kane was piss poor and wasnt involved in the game..If Southgate had any bottle he would have replaced him with Vardy in the second half
England’s World Cup:
Beat Tunisia 2-1
Pumped a pub team - still conceded
Lost a friendly to Belgium
Went through on penalties against a Columbia side missing their best player
Beat a poor Sweden side
Created very very little against Croatia
The commentator said he looks forward to seeing what England do going forward.
I’m sorry, all the “it’s coming home stuff” has been fun, but masks that the team are pretty poor overall.
I’m disappointed in the result, yes.He’s diving forward, I know you’re smarting from the result but let’s be honest it’s never a foul.
Yip, I’m a simpleton.
A massive failure for England?Let's be brutally honest.
The only reason these two teams are contesting a world semi final is due to the big nations being well below par...….Argentina,Brazil,Germany and Spain......this is also a world cup without strong Dutch and Italian sides.
England beat Tunisia and Panama in the group stages then Colombia and Sweden to reach the semis.....they will be lucky to get this chance again.
1-0 u p inside 5 minutes...…...dress it up any way you want this was a massive failure.
The Croats won today,and Modric actuallyIf Croatia win the World Cup then surely Modric is in with a shout for the Balon Dor?
I would have been looking for a penalty and the panel would if it was at the other end.Should have been a penalty whether the keeper touched the ball or not.
Aww poor Engerlund
I wonder if they will analyse how many touches the best striker in the world had in that game..
Fucking magic.. Party time
I said as much just above you there mate. They were kidding themselves on.England’s World Cup:

No they gave the English and the plastic little Englander wannabes a cheer the rest of us waited our inevitable moment as usual, it arrived.Fantastic effort from England.
Got further than most expected, and also gave us Brits something to cheer about.
I’m disappointed in the result, yes.
And, yes, I agree it wasn’t a foul.
All I’m saying, as I’ve suggested to others on this thread, I’ve seen fouls given for such a challenge and there have been times when I would have wanted a foul given, and not.
No it shouldnt. There’s no foul there, if there was it would have been picked up and you wouldn’t have the likes of Glenn Hoddle shouting it down.
Red and white specs for you whether it’s club or international football.
I only truly support Scotland at international level. I wanted my fellow Brits to do well, but wont lose any sleep over the fact that they are out.
Tomorrow night, however, that is different.
Come on Rangers. Let's Go !!!!!!!!
Really gagging to get into Ibrox tomorrow night. Can't wait
All his new found mates across the country can now go back to hating Rangers.What a brilliant way to live.
Bitter, angry Scotsman cliche coming to life here.
Croatian manager wanting Southgates waste coat
Pundits are paid to talk about football and be controversial. You have no excuse. I have given you clear video footage that the foot was dangerously high and that that the goal should not have stood. When people ignore facts, arguments are merely a waste of time. I’m out. Enjoy obsessing about Liverpool, you clearly love to talk about them.
