  1. Gjasula scores for Albania, but that cross to him should have been cut out. That was poor defending for Croatia and it's cost them. Croatia 2-2 Albania
  2. Modric with a decent shot from outside the area goes just wide of the post
  3. The thing is the difference in quality usually shows. Croatia have the depth to bring on subs that make a difference, Albania don't have that luxury and over the course of a match, these things usually make a difference. Croatia are still not going to go far in this competition in my opinion. They will probably get knocked out in the Round of 16, if they even get out of the group. Albania have not shamed themselves and they have some good players. But they are ranked by the bookies as the weakest team in this competition alongside Georgia for a reason.
  4. The substitutes Sucic, Budimir and Pasalic have all helped make a difference for Croatia in this 2nd half.
  5. Croatia score the winner! Sucic scores their 2nd goal! Sucic's shot takes a big deflection off of Gjasula, so the goal has been awarded as an own goal by him. Croatia 2-1 Albania
  6. Kramaric scores to equalise for Croatia!! A well executed goal! Croatia 1-1 Albania
  7. The commentator is talking utter crap, when he says that it's only Modric who is in his mid to late 30's in this Croatian team. Bloody Perisic who is playing as a left wing-back is 35!
  8. Sutalo has a header right in front of goal go over the bar. Big chance that, as Modric's cross to him was excellent.
  9. Kovacic has a shot at goal from outside the area, but it's straight at Strakosha and saved by him.
  10. A powerful shot by the substitute Sucic is excellently saved by the Albanian keeper Strakosha! Big chance that for Croatia.
  11. Petkovic looks awful, I prefer Budimir as their centre-forward.
  12. Pasalic and Sucic come on in the 2nd half for Croatia. Can they help get this Croatian team going?
  13. Not so sure they will bounce back in the 2nd half to be honest. They seem to be really struggling to break down that Albania defence. I hope I am wrong, but they look like they don't have enough pace in the team.
  14. Asllani gets through on goal and pulls the shot off, but his effort is saved by Livakovic. That was an excellent save. Croatia are living very dangerously here, they are being opened up on the counter attack by the Albanians.
  15. This match opening up, but that shot from Brozovic was well wide. He should have done better there.
  16. Bloody hell, Albania score and take the lead!! Laci headed the ball into the net! The keeper should have done better there! Croatia 0-1 Albania
  17. Yeah, I already did it, thanks anyway for all the advice.
  18. Croatia are starting with Juranovic and Perisic at right-back and left-back respectively. Both like to attack from those positions, so it looks like Croatia are going to give it their all for the win today. That starting 11 still looks relatively old to me, but I think Gvardiol starting at centre-back instead of Pongracic is a very good decision by the manager.
  19. Thanks for confirming that.
