Very disappointing from an England point of view of course because I didn't think Croatia were that great. We were too direct all game without really needing to be, the dominance in the first half gave us a false sense of security thinking we could just hit them on the break, which of course played into their hands completely because they were never going to tire so long as they had the ball all game. Oh well, we got much further than we thought and realistically were never going to beat France based on what I saw today, so as long as lessons were learned and we can keep being calm and rational and committed to a system moving forward I'm not too devastated. We could lament what might have been in this game if the approach had been different, but again based on what I've seen today the gap in the final would have been too huge anyway. Croatia were professional in possession and kept the game clean so good luck to them in the final, I suspect they will need it.
