    3-1 vs 10 men would have been more interesting.

    Spain defensively are actually looking quite poor.

    Croatia could fairly feel a little hard done by.

    Would 3-0 and Spain down to 10 really have changed much? Nah probably not, but penalty had to be a red surely given ya man had a free hit at an open goal and is just cynically brought down

    As for the penalty, I take it the explanation will be that he tried to win the ball? Is that still the rule? As I'm not sure that Rodri done that.

    It looked like he got touched and then made more of it, I think he could have carried on and stuck it in the net but decided penalty and red card would be better for them

    Of course I wouldn’t put it past them qualifying. If they beat Albania they will likely get through. I don’t see them anywhere near winning it though.

    Think this will be a good game. Don’t think it will be all Italy. Expect them to win still but reckon it could be a tough one for them.

    Just seen the two Albania players highlighted by the BBC pundits there, both of them look pure quality. Wouldn't write them off at all with players like that in their ranks.

    They’ve been close to winning a major tournament though, which is why I said I don’t see them getting anywhere near winning it, as I think they are considerably weaker than when they finished 3rd and 2nd in the previous two World Cups.
