They were the better team against the Netherlands and just messed up near the end. Dominated extra time with play and chances. And Croatia are close or on par with Germany and Portugal as a team at the moment

It was more of an obstruction penalty really. He stuck is leg out after the ball went over his head to block alvarez getting past him. So it was a pen

Messi's last 2 assists have been 2 of the greatest ever. 2 different types

Argentina really need to take better care of the ball when they have it and stop giving away dangerous free kicks

Great run and finish. Does messi get the assist considering it hit a couple of Croatians?

Better team lost

Deserved really for England. They've been the better team just about. French just looking to counter mostly

Spain don't look so bad now

Nowhere near as defensive as that. I'm fairly sure Croatia had a decent amount of possession and they attacked with it. Just not great in the final third

They didn't park the bus certainly nowhere near morroco levels. Croatia had plenty of possession and possession in the Brazil half and tried to attack alot

Croatia played very well though and at least didn't do a morroco. Not that they'd need to

Brazil were the better or at least more dangerous team just didn't take their chances

I don't agree. They just had a bad day and no world class strikers. Full backs were poor also yesterday. I think if they'd got past morroco the rest of the games would've been more open and easier just like the euros where they scored and had other clear chances against italy. One team has to...

I suppose so but maybe 4 cards and you miss would be better. Only the very sinical or dirty players would miss the final then. Most teams won't get near a final and some of their best will miss their biggest quarters or semis with 2

Really stupid system. Yellow cards not wiped after the group stages and whatever happened to 3 yellows and then suspension. I think that was a thing before

That's the thing they didn't have enough chances. I barely remember any. Asemsio half chance and sarabia at the end. Refresh my memory on other clear chances

Most teams would've struggled against this 11 behind the ball morroco. England were lucky enough to play a Senegal team that lost the ball high up and were punished for 2 or 3 of the goals. England do have the better front 3 though but still morroco would've made ir tough on them or france

Ya that makes sense. They were terrible in the final third. Barely even made it in there

I wouldn't say that. It's the lack of quality up front really. I think Spain would've looked better and possibly won against a top team. They would've at least scored against a slightly more adventurous team like they have in recent tournaments and nation leagues

Not if they play 11 behind the ball again. They deserved it tonight on chances created though. Spain were so poor and really need to produce some top strikers
