To be excited about the World Cup 3

[TaliZorahVasNormandy]

Come on England!!

Shame but yes Croatia deserved to win. It was good while it lasted.

Football just doesn't work like that though.
1 game... anything can happen.

They were the better team in the last 15, we were better in the first 45. Hey, at least we don’t have to gloat over semi finalists after failing to even qualify anywhere near. There’s a full tragedy in the tenements.
Well done boys, you did us proud! Finally put England back on the map and a team to be feared. Wales had a celebration bus tour for much less... please don’t do that 😂

They're going home, they're going home...

ToffeeUp 🤣🤣

We need to work on fitness & pushing through (I know nothing about football).

Still saying France though.

Good on ya Croatia, great achievement for a small country. It's not the size of the dog in the fight...

Croatia havent managed a win in 90 mins since the group stages

Yup. Needed penalties to get past the might of Denmark and Russia.

DH is devastated

Well, you Scots have now lost the 'oh we're only a small country' to excuse your rubbish record in international football.

I'm not Scottish!

Also I feel a bit meh supporting them but I hope France win. And have a good ref. We probably lost 20% of that game tonight through AWFUL ref, asst ref and linesman decisions. Still can’t quite believe we were down to the final three IN THE WORLD. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 But France have played some brilliant football, they deserve to win.

So proud of England. Second half they were second best but no shame.

I'm not as gutted as I thought I'd be. It's a semi final. Last 4. We arent the last man standing but we stood strong.

I want France to win

That Ref was diabolical. Unbelievable the amount of times he let Croatian players get away without a card.

Well
I hope they keep Gareth on

I'm not Scottish!

So what's with the naff attempts at Scots then?

Where are you from? I'd like to know so I can avoid it if everyone there is as graceless as you are.

Croatia played dirty, they were no better than Colombia. There needs to be better technology to catch this stuff out. One thing you can say for our boys is that they don't act like that, disgusting.

That Ref was a shambles. Where did they pull him up from? School of shit refs?

They will keep Gareth on. Am fundraising to buy the ref some specs if anyone is interested.

Croatia didn't play dirty, in fairness.

At the end of the day quality and experience won out. They were simply better than England.

Where are you from?

Certainly not from England!

I am gutted but not as much as I thought, mostly because England really did us proud and Croatia was just that litle bit better tonight. We were lucky when that ball hit the post and then it took a second of lack of concentration that did undo us. Small margins but they matter on this level.

So disappointed for the team but proud of every player. They've had a fantastic tournament and I've enjoyed watching them (and will against Belgium).

IcedPurple were we watching the same match?
