Agreed, congrats to your lot, tired performance but deserved. Just.and btw; F*ck off Kasper, you prick.
Thanks Billy. And i agree. We just didn’t have the confidence in the end, but that’s life.You guys did brilliantly. Another day you'd have gone through.
I think so. Denmark created some better chances than Croatia for most of the second half. Again the difference may not be huge but I think Denmark did slightly better in 90 mins.Do the neutrals also think Denmark were the better team?
Damn, that's a tough loss.
Thought we did well, and it will be hard to get over the fact that we missed three out of five penalties when we had a once-in-a-lifetime chance to face Russia in the WC quarters.
6 days until that game, plenty of time to recuperate, for them as well, to be honest.Nah, you're dead on your feet. Russia'll run rings around you.
Cheers, was just curious. It was a tight game but I felt like we edged it. Unbearable.I think so. Denmark created some better chances than Croatia for most of the second half. Again the difference may not be huge but I think Denmark did slightly better in 90 mins.
Sorry for Denmark. They could have done no more.Do the neutrals also think Denmark were the better team?

Yes. That extra time penalty aside Croatia didn't have much, Denmark attacked more but unfortunately didn't have enough quality to finish. Sad as it maybe I think I read it's still Denmark's joint second best WC result.Do the neutrals also think Denmark were the better team?

Ultimately came down to a lack of quality, I feel. We weren't able to convert our possession and control into enough chances.Sorry for Denmark. They could have done no more.
You also played fair and take the game to us from the second half. So, kudos to you or your team, it was absolutely crazy game and could go either way.Ultimately came down to a lack of quality, I feel. We weren't able to convert our possession and control into enough chances.
In the end, for us to exit the tournament now is probably a fair reflection of our level. But still, under the circumstances and with a very winnable QF waiting .. I'm just so bloody sad.
You killed our midfield. I still can't believe it. You are hard team to beat. This was hell of display from you. 50-50 gameWhat a fecking let down. Thought we did exceptionally well in the second half and deserved the win against a Croatian team with far better individuals.
Yeah. It was weird seeing our rather average guys keep perhaps the best midfielder in the world and Rakitic quiet almost all game.You killed our midfield. I still can't believe it. You are hard team to beat. This was hell of display from you. 50-50 game
It really wasn’t. Went right through the back of the player in a lunge to stop him scoring. Got his just desserts in the end.It was an attempt to get the ball so not a red card.
You're jokong tight rightNah, you're dead on your feet. Russia'll run rings around you.
Im stockmaradoned, see you in a few days.
I mean to say that they should improve after watching this horror show today. Last thing fans want is England taking Stupid penalties and going out.Take note of what ?
Croatia were not good , I think England have the beating of them.
Yeah noCorrect. And by we, you obviously mean England.
Very much looks a player who scores a million goals in Dutch league but won't step up in better league.I think people can stop hyping Croatia after this. They’re good, yes but they’re not that good. They came close to being knocked out by an average Denmark side.
I’m surprised Hareide didn’t bring Bendtner to the WC or try Dolberg at some point. Nicolai Jørgensen was absolutely dire.
Yeah we're not that good. Nobody is that good in this WC. It's that kind of a tournament. We can have a belter on Saturday, who knows. If anything it's better if there's no hype around us.I think people can stop hyping Croatia after this. They’re good, yes but they’re not that good.

Not sure why but I always considered Rakitic as better penalty taker to Modric, just seems more confident with them, I might be talking shit mind just general feeling I get.
Ha ha ! Congrats Ban! I watched the game with Croatian friends, it was the toughest watch ever! I am so happy as I like Modric and it would have been cruel on him on many levels to go out like that. This WC is something else!Im stock

Yeah I get that feeling too and we talked about it in the bar. After Luka missed of course. But Rakitić is cool a cucumber.Not sure why but I always considered Rakitic as better penalty taker to Modric, just seems more confident with them, I might be talking shit mind just general feeling I get.
Congrats to Croatians who had to suffer a lot to finally reach this stage at a major tournament.
Thanks man! I was a bit pissed when I wrote that. I'm home now and can write a bit better, only problem is I need to wake up for work in 4 hours.Ha ha ! Congrats Ban!

Couldn’t have said it better myself. I understand the decision but it’s atrocious from a footballing stand point.That's why I don't like the "new" rule. The yellow is correct because he did try to get the ball, but the chance he took away from the Croatian (open net) was infinitely better than the one they got, so a red card would've been more appropriate.
Indeed. This is wiiideee open. Generally, only the "historic" teams lift this trophy (Brazil, Germany, Italy, Argentina) and it takes absolutely loaded teams or teams with home field advantage (England 66, France 98, Spain 10) to break that stranglehold.Yeah we're not that good.

I'd say France are the strongest team I've seen. They didn't need to break a sweat in the group stage, and when they suffered a set back against Argentina, they responded brilliantly and showed their class. So much strength and pace. Belgium would be my second favourites. One of those two for me also.Indeed. This is wiiideee open.

But right now it's crazy. I've give Belgium and France a slight edge above all others, but at this point I wouldn't rule out a Sweden or Croatia victory. Bonkers WC.
