Perisic with a fantastic finish!

First half good. Second half...

Rashford's looking lively.

So much for Croatia being tired!

Croatia are just more composed at present.

Sit back and let the best deep playmaker have no pressure? Rubbish

Alli's closing down has been dire at best

So : one half each.

Now will Croatia's greater experience count or will fatigue get them ?

England have to take it to them and test those tired legs. I do think they have more goals in them ....

I'm imagining this water is actually scotch

Ali started well, gone of the boil now.

Much better from england

Chances both ends in that fifteen minutes. How close that Stones header !

Still really could go either way ...I have a hunch it won't go to pens this time but couldn't say which way...

A deserved winner!

Still time for a twist...

I guess we saw the real Croatia after half time. Deserved win.

Hard luck to England after doing better than expected, and lasted long enough to pick up goodwill from casual supporters (like me).

England have 3 shots on target since the start of the Sweden game....
