July 10, 20187 yr At least this one won't be boring :P England always mess up Well England got this far, look at Argentina, Spain, Germany they hardly got far :rolleyes: They only lost 1 game against Belgium, I'm not really worried if we get defeated by Croatia, at least we get a chance to finish 3rd in the comp. Which is still a good outcome for them.
July 11, 20187 yr The loss against Belgium is irrelevant - both teams were playing their 2nd set of players. I said before the SFs that England are destined to play Belgium again... Belgium went out so I guess that's what I'm expecting now for a 3rd/4th Playoff Place match up - I hope I'm wrong! I have faith to be honest, I think we can beat Croatia. I don't think we can beat France though :P
July 11, 20187 yr Feeling tense and wouldn't surprise me if this game went to extra time. Croatia have got the classier players, especially in midfield, but I think we may just edge it. Reckon Sterling will have a big game - he's the player who worries defences the most I reckon and can run at the tired Croatian defence. This game just proves that international football is so much bigger than club football - even the Champions League. Definitely doesn't feel like 'just another game' the way the big Premier League games can do.
July 11, 20187 yr I still think England will win tonight, I think Gareth will tell the boys to go for it, Croatia will push forward, England need to dig deep and defend.
July 11, 20187 yr There's a lot riding on this game. Peru went into the World Cup as the holders of the Unofficial World Cup. They lost to Denmark who subsequently lost to Croatia. Therefore, Croatia are the current Unofficial World Champions and Wednesday will be their first title defence. https://www.ufwc.co.uk Wouldn't that have been against Russia?
July 11, 20187 yr Where will you be watching the match? At home, I don't do crowds :( I was born in 1966 (April) my grandfather watched them win, sadly my grandfather passed away 2 years ago, if he was around now he be routing for them to win it. At least I get to see them win in my lifetime, if they go all the way.
July 11, 20187 yr I'll be watching at home too. I like England to do it but I'm not sure if they will.
July 11, 20187 yr Fingers crossed I've been on edge all day!!! Either way, we have not got this far in the WC since I was 2 so I'm really proud of the team, but I would love love love to get to the final. Theoretically we should win against Croatia, but that means nothing in this World Cup, it's been such a unpredictable World Cup. Either way I win tonight as Croatia are my sweepstake lol.
July 11, 20187 yr Author Yeah there's no way I'd go anywhere where I'd probably end up with beer all over me to watch a football match :P Home is comfortable enough.
July 11, 20187 yr I'm so nervous for tonight's match :lol: I'm another one who is watching at home. Keeping everything crossed! On the bright side, if England lose then it's a showdown of me vs. Mikey for the BuzzJack sweepstake crown :kink: but yeah c'mon England, it would be so incredible if we could progress to the final.
July 11, 20187 yr On the bright side, if England lose then it's a showdown of me vs. Mikey for the BuzzJack sweepstake crown :kink: Actually I forgot to look who I got in the sweepstake :lol: I've only just cottoned on its FRANCE :lol:
July 11, 20187 yr In the BUSIEST BAR ever in central London & there's still 90 mins till start :lol: It probably take you 90 mins to get served :lol:
