I think he changed his mind just at the last second. That's the only explanation I got for that weak af kick.

I just think that the noise and pressure from the home crowd might not have been the best for PK. Better take your time and still calm.

Just tuned in for the penalties... what the hell were some of those? Damn.

So what does this win mean for England on Wednesday? Should I start to be worried or not?

It was preferable to play against Russia, but it is what it is.

People in my GF's town are firing Schreckschusspistolen. Crazy shit. She said they have a ton of Croatians. And Russians.


I hope there won't be fights.

A more or less physically ground down Croatia going up against what appeared to be a relatively healthy England team seems like a raw deal.

People keep saying 'eat shit Vlad' and it's so sad

Putin is trash, but Russia is filled with good and bad people. Like your country and mine. They wanted their team to win and ultimately the players here were the underdogs and will hurt just like if your team lost.

Have some empathy and a wider world view than what your media teach you to hate
FWIW, I don't think people here on Era hate Russians. The Putin hate is legitimate and I'd argue that many Russians would agree with. The Russia's fans on the broadcastings were cool and your team almost went to the semifinal. I don't think anyone here on Era hates your team or Russians (I mean, other than Mario Fernandes, fuck him, and it's not because he's not playing for Brazil mind you, it's because he used to play for my home team's rival and I hated him since then).

France vs England would be a rad final.

Russia put all their heart on it, and I ended up rooting for them in the penalties.

Shame they could not pass through, but at least they gave an amazing performance, I think the entire host country should be happy with their team, cause this was totally unexpected for their team after poor performance they did at 2017 confederation cup.

Both matches are going to be hell.

I'm confident in my France vs Croatia prediction with France winning it all but I don't mind any of the other 2 teams.

So fuck these eleven men and their fans purely because of their countries crimes?

We are all guilty of varying degrees of shit
Yes fuck them. That's what they've chosen to represent.

Plus lmao if you think Russia haven't rigged this shit somehow.

Sounds like business as usual, really.

That makes things worse. Ah, well, it'll be a fun game either way.

The way I look at it is that some have said all of England's cards have been somewhat easy thus far, and whilst Sweden is pretty strong, this Croatia team is better. Now we're really going to have to earn it.

I'll be happy with any of the final four teams winning it all, but I'm personally rooting for France.

Here's to a good semis!

Both semi's are gonna be wild. Hope we get a Belgium vs England final. One must question how much more Croatia have in the tank after 2 absolutely gruelling matches.

Modric still has some from Zidane's black magic, how he got away with the penalties in both game's shootout....

Wasn't a great game in terms of quality but Russia and this World Cup once again delivered on the drama...

Well done to Croatia and all credit to the Russian squad and their fans, great display from both to make it this far.
