And if all goes to plan we could have England vs France and Italy/Spain vs Germany in the quarters

Bet Germany are so happy to have won the group now

Yeah, this third place thing is mucking a lot up in all honesty.

makes hodgson's changes look even worse now... to think we could have had croatia & belgium as our biggest rivals... now it's spain, italy, germany, france and possibly portugal...

Croatia,as they say, making a very loud and clear statement. They had to hang in at various times, especially in the first half, but that underscores their resilience as well as their well founded confidence in their ability. This is just what the tournament needed, interrupting the relatively untroubled procession of the usual teams.

I think Croatia will get to the final,”

I backed them a while ago and have them winning tonight in the prediction game.

I wouldn't rule out Belgium either. It is opening up for them too.

Off the line at the very end!

And that's it!

Croatia's gameplan rewarded.

Clear those Monday afternoons, gents...

But Del Bosque was being lauded for not making any changes two hours ago and look what has happened to them. They looked knackered after an hour. He's made no changes and may have cost them big

If Italy play as well as they did against Belgium I think they will beat Spain.

Slaven called it! He said that Spain has trouble with Croatia. But I've said before I'm not convinced by Spain.

I hope so even if it is straight at him and he doesn't move all the commentators scream as if he's pulled off a wonder save!

I fancy Italy to win that, I think they've got the strength in attack to exploit Spain's defensive weaknesses.

That was an entertaining match. Spain vs Italy is one to look forward too. Croatia have a lot of quality in their squad.

Spain, Italy, France and Germany on the same side of the draw as England. Top work as always lads.

Yep, Spain have clearly shown that they're susceptible to the counter-attack.

That is an astonishingly bad result for Spain, they knew the difference between the path in front of them if the won the group and if they came second. Then they went 1-0 up and still managed to throw it away.

Just to remind everyone you called it absolutely right and Croatia obliged with their second goal.

The Croatian pundits reckoned pre-tournament that this is their best side since the 90s.
