Modric, still the best player on the pitch, but Croatia have nothing up front
Italy
German commentators praising California.
Blumenkohl?
Penalty Croatia
A bit harsh, but kind of inevitable.
Youâd imagine they give it, but I hate these. He was 2 feet from the guy.
Saved!
Sort of justice
Missed his last two for Real too.
1-0 Modric
Oh wow. What a sequence of events that was
This game has exploded into life.
I was nodding off.
Ooooff. Nice finish. Better than his penalty
Gets better. My most hated Italian off and my favourite on.
Always best when Italy go behind.
German = Blumenkohl
Spanish = Coliflor
English = Cauliflower
Italian = Calafiori
Itâs the truth. Donât look it up.
Why do you dislike DiMarco?
Itâs kind of sad watching Italy the last several years. For their reputation as defensive, they always had top forwards as well. Have they had anyone even close to top level since probably Del Piero and he hasnt played for Italy for over 15 years
Thuggish, bad haircut, all the usual Italian thingsâŚ
Itâs all about superficial stuff in these cases.
Didnât really mean hate of course.
Chiesa so classy.
