Marvellously taken goal.

Particularly fitting that Rakitic has got it as he's been the hub of Croatia's forward play in this match.

Will the floodgates open?

Seven corners so far on the UEFA stats.

Still half an hour to go, this could be the first game with one team running away with it.

This will be interesting if it's close. Most places say 8

I would guess UEFA stats are the ones to go by.

I wonder if the bet is corners taken or corners awarded?

Edit: it's corners taken

Sattrega

Almost a third. It was actually a poor finish.

that should have been buried...

I wondered that too but I think on most sites it's simply number of corners.

This has been very impressive by Croatia, a clear signal to other teams they are not just here to make up the numbers, they are serious contenders. As long as injuries are kind to them, it will take a very good team to beat them.

Glimmer of hope for the Czechs.

Disappointing that the Croats have sat back and invited them on to score since they got their second.

Game on...?!

Hello? Great header and suddenly it's game on again.

-Bandit-

17-06-2016

out of nothing... took that header really well.

Goodness me I didn't see that coming, what a fabulous header. I was beginning to think of the next match!

Totally against the run of play but an amazing ball by Rosicky.

-Bandit-

17-06-2016

that would have been a brilliant goal...

...still we wait for the first team to score 3 in a game.

Jason C

Great tackle by Limbersky!

Brozovic would surely have made it 3-1 had that not come in.

And half a dozen flares have been thrown onto the pitch by the Croatian fans.

Oh my, a steward has seemingly just been hit by another flare thrown.

Must be England fans' fault.

Perisic has had a fabulous game, one of the best I have seen this tournament; no one in the Czech Republic's side comes close to him.

Big trouble for that, lobbing a flare at a steward.

Jason C

Some of the Croatian fans now seem to be fighting amongst themselves in the stand.

This is all looking very nasty indeed.
