Deserved lead I’d say. But I don’t think this England squad will be able to handle the pressure of this second half. The leadership of modric/rakitic/mandzukic will prevail

I can’t believe England has managed to win the midfield so far. That was the whole reason I picked Croatia, didn’t think they’d be able to handle Modric and Rakitic.

England locking them down superbly.
Strinic is a clear weak link for Croatia

1-1 Perisic. The England bench has nothing to offer, they sure are in trouble now

This is not Kane´s game. Should have sent them home in the first half.
