    Gutted. Im going to Croatia in a week so it would be fantastic seeing them go through in a selfish perspective.

    The amount of stoppage time added to games so far has been low. 8 minutes last night felt excessive in the circumstances. The VAR check didn't take too long and most games have had a lot of substitutions.

    The world cup got silly with the amount of time added to every game. The Euros has swung the other way.

    Croatia still should have seen that game out. Poor decisions when they should have held the ball and ran the clock down cost them.

    Croatia still have a chance to qualify for the last 16. They need a few results to go their way. Some of the 3rd place teams going through does make for more meaningful games, but qualifying with only 2 points feels too low.

    I've just tuned in for the France game.

    The picture quality is awful.

    That's really poor by Lewandowski.

    How do you think you'll con the ref like that with VAR?

    Kante is one of the best defending midfielders around still, but easily one of the worst when going forward, absolute nosebleed when he's near the opposition box, 2 basic simple things to do and he * up.

    Booked Zadar in February 2018, little did I know a few months later I would be watching them knock out England in the town square to get to the world cup final.

    One of the greatest nights of my life.

    Deschamps is a slightly better Southgate.

    France are usually not a very good watch, and given the squad they've had the last number of years, one major tournament win isn't as good at it could/should be. Should have beaten Argentina in the WC and knocked out of the last Euros by Switzerland in the last 16.

    Put Nagelsmann or Spalletti in charge of France and they'd be brilliant to watch.

    Lewandowski should be doing his job and scoring.

    Soft penalty for Poland and then a retake after it was missed.

    If the keeper was off his line it was by an inch.
