Nope. Croatia with all the possession and the Russians trying to get something on the break. It was a special goal and deserved to be a winner but the second half will see more of the same. Croatia possession and Russian rearguard action.Really?Its started off in the same way as the Russia / Spain match. I think the Croats need to score first.I have mixed feelings about this match.
On the one hand, a good friend of mine is Russian and Russia is one of the feel-good aspects of the tournament.
On the other hand, I’m cheering for England to win it all, and I think I’d rather England play Croatia, even though they are more talented than Russia.
I told my Russian friend after Russia beat Saudi Arabia that Russia would win the World Cup. I was only joking, but they are starting to look like a team of destiny.
Are you in some parallel reality?
penalty kicks--again...why don't they just decide the game at the beginning with PKicks
2 hours and no winner
but really neither team is better/deserves the winpenalty kicks--again...why don't they just decide the game at the beginning with PKicks
2 hours and no winner
Because it’s been two hours of fantastic entertainment.
Russians should query why a nation of 200 million (?) cannot produce great players. There is something wrong with the structure. Coaching,youth development the professional game ? Arshavins team were the last decent side and that must be wrong.Croatians were better undoubtedly.
But Russian team jumped higher their heads at this Cup.
Ball possession is not the main thing in football. Tactic was ok against Croatia today and it worked. But I wish our guys played the whole match the way they did it last 15 minutes of this match.
A great surprise that Russia has managed not to lose a game at the tournament (lost to Uruguay was not important game when played without leaders so I prefer not to count it).
Today's players are those born in 1990s and grown up in 2000s - period when pro western "democrats" were ruling the country. While that period whole country's economy was ruined by them and people simply tried to survive. It is a surprise sport could exist after that.Russians should query why a nation of 200 million (?) cannot produce great players. There is something wrong with the structure.

Many years ago they played at Wrexham and were top class. Blokhin and Dasaev were world class.Russia should be up there with the best.
Your League is second rate because your wealthy types prefer to invest in the west. If Abramovich and his ilk put money into the Russian game then talent would flourish.China is spending the money now and they will reap the benefit in a few years.Today's players are those born in 1990s and grown up in 2000s - period when pro western "democrats" were ruling the country.

Now Putin's epoch allows sport to raise as well as all other aspects of life in Russia.
I have to root for England for Great Great Great Great Grandpa.
I saw a couple of flags waving outside of vehicles. I only gave a thumbs up to the one in which he also flew a Canadian flag on the other side.
I'm not big on people flying just one. You're in Canada now pal, the Old Country is just that, the Old Country.

Huh? I wasn't talking about you. Unless you're in Canada and only flying an English flag out of your car.
Though in fairness, California is very similar to Canada so I can see how you might get confused
