Well that's me lost £40 at least. You think I'd be more upset.

why moaning/crowing like exiting to croatia in semis is a sign of failure
― repartee is deft (darraghmac), Wednesday, 11 July 2018 20:41 (five years ago) link
croatia were pretty good in the second half. perisic had monster eyes and modric is a golden god

Boy have croatia had to dig deep this world cup.
Tbf to england they cd easily have been out of sight by h/t but it was plain as day they 'd struggle if not more than one up after an hour.

Lol Remember when I said Sterling was good and would win the game for england, and then he got subbed straight away?

Croats will be toast in the final
― I'd Rather Kecak (NickB), Wednesday, 11 July 2018 20:46 (five years ago) link
Surely its not even in dispute that croatia were good second half, and were somehow even the stronger in extra time
― Neuer write off the germans (Bananaman Begins), Wednesday, 11 July 2018 20:47 (five years ago) link
they're gonna get dismantled but I'll be cheering for em

ok i have a question: the various ppl who said around or before HT "if ENG don't get a second before 60 mins, they will lose" -- julio, neanderthal, a couple others i think -- is this judgment based on knowing who is going to get tired first, or on something else?
― mark s, Wednesday, 11 July 2018 20:51 (five years ago) link
given modrics endurance lately I'd say that it'd be based on the fact that cro are on PEDs
― gbx, Wednesday, 11 July 2018 20:52 (five years ago) link
I imagine based on the assumption that Croatia classier midfield were going to start playing eventually. (xp)

England were playing such a high tempo game first half they were bound to tire. And replacements from the bench not nearly as effective- ie rashford for sterling
― Neuer write off the germans (Bananaman Begins), Wednesday, 11 July 2018 20:55 (five years ago) link
lol England actually tried the old kick off while they're celebrating trick

Has been a few years since I saw any of their stuff but they used to be pretty good.

England get to play Belgium again and maybe this time both teams can at least try and play like they want to win.
