I'd love to see Croatia win today, but after all that extra time, the physical and emotional drain, are there still enough tigers in the tank?
I've grown close to and very admiring of many of their players through watching the Champions league - especially Perisic, Mandzukic, Rakitic and the great Luka Modric. I love that combination of high skills and never-say-die determination. Very Liverpool.
I was heartbroken at our semi-final defeat but I had to admire the way Croatia went about recovering and then dominating the game...easy to talk about defensive lapses, but their goals were brilliantly taken.
They'll have to cope with Mbappé of course.... if anyone ever can....
