Russia vs Croatia easily the other one good game of the final eight. Croatia need to find a way to stop choking late, whether giving up late equalizers, or missing late penalties that would seal the game during regulation time. Glad they went through though as they pretty much controlled the game throughout and should have won during regular time, but Russia always finds a way to come back in it by pulling a goal out of no where. Was a great fairytale whilst it lasted, there were probably not even one of top 20 teams coming into the tournament, yet alone may not have qualified if they had to take that path. Just goes to show you cannot underestimate passion, home field advantage and the crowd behind you to lift you a couple of levels up. Shame they couldn't face each other in the semi finals instead, prefer both to England.
