Also predicted Germany an early exit and England to do better than expected. Didn't get many of the other predictions right mind :lol:

Croatia win 2-1 aet. Well well what a surprise, should have pushed for that second goal rather then trying to defend Tripps first. Oh well live and learn see if we can beat Belgium now on Sat.

Well we did try in the first half and Croatia were all at sea, missed chances cost matches. Ultimately they have better footballers than us and that counted for something. England are only really set up to play in fits and starts, not enough ball players. And a team like that weren’t quite good enough to reach a final.
