Todays Other Games, 2016/2017 Edition.

England at times seems to have an extra man, all the time in the world for Alli to head in, 2-0.

[wolves71]

If this stays the same plaudits will no doubt go to the scorers, but Pickford now has made a couple of important saves.

[wolves71]

That poor free-kick from Augustinsson just about sums Sweden's day up. What a waste!

[wolves71]

Well done England. It's been a long time coming now England are in the Semi-Finals. I never thought i'd see it again in my lifetime.

Extra-time it is then for Russia and Croatia. Cheryshev's goal was quality, but i do think that the five defender's in and around Kramaric for the Croatia could have done better as Mandzukic put the ball in.

[wolves71]

It's up to Russia now to try and get back into this. The keeper was left stranded after Vida's effort was deflected past the keeper.

[wolves71]

Fernandes with the equaliser for Russia, but static defending by Croatia as the free-kick came into the danger area.

[wolves71]

Hopefully the 120 mins+ and the penalties will take it's toll on whoever England face in the semi-finals.

[wolves71]

How poor have the first and third Russia penalties been? The second Croatia penalty wasn't much better! Well done Rakitic and Croatia!

In all honesty we should have nothing to fear from Croatia in the semi final. They struggled to beat a poor Russian side that appeared to play kick and rush football. Their Manager seemed to rule by fear, not good for team moral.
