Dalmore Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Mandzukic is the most underrated player in the world if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 7, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted July 7, 2018 Cheryshev is actual class one of the revelations of the World Cup. Great player. Really want to see Croatia v England in the semis though because I think that would be one of the games of the tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azeem Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Croatia are both over-achieving and playing as less than the sum of their parts. I didn't know that was possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASF Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Russia fully deserves to be playing the quarter-finals. Their tournament has been nothing like the South Korea farce, in 2002. But what Toni meant was that the home side, usually, gets favorable decisions in key moments, historically, which is true. Italy, in the 1930's, or England in 1966 confirms this. If Russia wins tonight, next Wednesday will be absolute carnage between the two sets of fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Russia are not a good side then, convinced on that. Decent, yes but not fantastic. It was hard to pick them out but I can see it now. I'm actually impressed with Croatia moreso than I was in previous matches. They look a lot better offensively here and not just relying on individualities.

Azeem Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 4th consecutive tournament KO game for Croatia that goes to ET Croatia just don't have anyone in the front 3 to consistently make an impact it feels like. Mandzukic is really good at what he does, but there's only so much he can do. And they haven't looked the same since Perisic went off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azeem Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Second consecutive 120mins game and Croatia are starting to break down... Meanwhile Russia who are also playing their 2nd consecutive 120 minute game, and have had less of the ball in both the games, are not tiring at all. so, you know, everything going as expected.

Guest Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Croatia deserved that to be fair. That's the first time in this tournament they've convinced me. Good on Russia though. A few faults in the side and they've managed to make it this far. They were a much more likeable side than the dour dross we had to watch 4 years ago in Brazil.

ASF Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Unlucky Russia. Thought they would win the shoot-out, after coming back from the 1-2. England will be better physically next Wednesday, with them not playing any ET yet, in contrast to the two of Croatia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
