Injured - no subs available until extra time.
They need a goal now.

Next round is 4 teams. Those are the semi-finals.

Maybe you simply expressed yourself a little poorly.

wondering if they should have subbed him out

he'll never be able to push off on his right leg to leap to the left side of the net. Russia should pound that corner

of my sudden (to him) screaming!!

It's not good for Croatia to get to penalty kicks because their goalie is not up to his best.

Everybody concentrate.

Go Croatia!!!!!!

although I need to check their injury sheet. England look united for a change and they are a young side but there is something about Croatia this year. I like France to win but what do I know.

With France coming out the winner.

Like you, I haven't a real clue.

I wouldn't be overly shocked if any of the final four wins this thing.

France has a good team.

I was baffled we won against Brazil.

I'm not fond of football (well soccer ), but I keep an eye on international events.

It's party in town tonight ! Although we do not have much Croatians, people are delighted Russia lost !

France does have a good team. They haven't bowled me over so I guess I'm not giving them enough credit.

It's going to be a great final!
