FIFA WORLD CUP SEMI
FINAL
CROTIA 2-1 ENGLAND
MIGHTY MANDZUZIC
Lingard spinning in delicately from the right to feed Alli,
who is bundled over by Modric, just in front of the D. A free kick in a very
dangerous position!
Kieran Tripper scores his first goal for England, and what a
strike! He takes the free kick, whips it over the wall, and back down into the
top right. Subasic had no chance! Trippier joins Bobby Charlton and Gary
Lineker as an English semi-final scorer!
Croatia had been turning up the pressure, and now they’ve
got their reward! Vrsaljko, deep on the right, curls towards the far post.
Walker stoops to head clear, but Perisic nips in from behind, and high-kicks a
first-time flick into the left-hand portion of the net!
England fail to clear a high ball down the left. Perisic
beats Trippier to a header to the left of the D. Mandzukic meets the dropping
ball, and flashes an unstoppable low shot across Pickford and into the bottom
right.
MY
OPINION
I think that this was a chance
for England to reach the final but they will come back to a joyous bunch of
fans. It was a complete miscommunication that lost the game for them and they
should regret that. As for Croatia they can go mad now.
FRANCE 1-0 BELGIUM
UNTITI UNITED
It should be noted that France won their corner following a
sharp run by Matuidi, who fed Giroud, who did well to make room for a shot that
was deflected behind for a corner. After that, it was just a question of Umtiti
timing his run and jump and nodding into the net.
MY
OPINION
I think that Belgium are an
Emerging side and will do well in years to come but France had the experience
and knowhow to know what to do and when to make their move.
