    Perisic has some record for Croatia:

    2 at 2014 World Cup
    2 at 2016 Euros
    3 at 2018 World Cup
    2 at 2020 Euros
    1 at 2022 World Cup (so far)

    How is Danilo not getting sent off there?

    Kovacic and Brozovic going through a power of work so far in the middle.

    Jenas right there (for once) - if Oliver doesn't think that's a foul, why the fuck is he blowing the whistle?

    They're boring as fuck but Croatia have so much technical quality. Almost always unhurried. Still fancy Brazil to workmanlike their way through. Glad VAR didn't call the fix in yet, although it would have been better if they had and the ref [having clearly seen it] had told them to do one.

    Celtic board will be licking their lips at this Juranovic showing. I think he was on his way out anyway but I don't think he's ever looked this good.

    Between him a Perisic there must be something in the water.

    If Brazil don't win this it's because they're indulging Neymar.

    I've obviously only been drifting in and out of this, but what is going on with [is it?] Eder Militao's shorts? Looks like he's walked out of a 1980s rugby league game.

    What a cameo from this lump Croatia have brought on up front. Think he’s given it away every time he’s got the ball.

    I don't know if it's correct, but Matterface's Chee-tay has to be the worst of all the pronunciation sins to have been aired on this broadcast.

    He just donned two defenders there though.

    Using Tim Vickery lingo I'd go Cheeeeeeeche? Something like that.

    Brozovic falls victim to the ball there.

    Thank god. As much as I would like to lol at Brazil, having Croatia stink it up for a third game in a row in the semis was a horrendous prospect.

    The Holland-Croatia dream is dying. Was looking forward to another properly organised, structured 120 minutes plus penalties.

    Taking a 3-man short corner in these circumstances should be an automatic life ban from any involvement in the sport.

    Looking at the lineups, Croatia gotta be odds-on faves for pens, a ridiculous line-up of flakey favela boys rounded off with king flake of Manchester.
