Doesn’t look good. He better be ok.
Croatia are so screwed
Edit - nevermind, forgot about the 4th sub in ET.

Can make another in extra time at least. Rough luck for Croatia though.
Rybolovlev promised him something.
Five added minutes coming, too.
Can they get there, though?
You get another sub in extra time anyway
Just cramp surely
5 minutes to get through....so Russia will be shooting and crossing from all angles now.
If he can see this out to a win, he will be a legend
Fool me once....
Is he actually injured or is he being dramatic? He looks fine now
I dont know exactly, its nothing specific, but some referee's get way to influenced by the atmosphere of the game and their decisions can get a bit compromised. we've all seen games where the crowd is intense and pretty intimidating and the decisions seem to go all over the place.
Think its just foreign territory for me, this is my first proper world cup where England haven't been either given questionable decisions or just not had the rub of the green at times, feel like a semi final vs russia, in moscow, could see the end of that, but its purely just a gut feeling.
Probably bad cramp which he took for a hammy injury?
Who's is that little terrier with no. 10 on the shirt? He's pretty good.
Damn, these Russians are just so hard to beat
This shithouse Russia team is going to the semis aren’t they? On two penalty shootouts I bet. Hate to see such negativity rewarded but Croatia are playing right into their hands. They look like they are half arsed about scoring.
Smolov.
Extra time, great news for England.
With all the running around he's done as a keeper?
Modric needs a rest
Great news for england. Both teams playing another extra time. And these russians really know how to defend
This Russian team reminds me a lot of the Greek Euro 2004 winning team. Just a bunch of defensive lumps waiting for the one sucker punch.
fixed
Well it's essentially a home game for Russia so you'd expect an odd thing to go the Russian way. Still, I've not seen anything from Russian games thus far, to suggest that refs are favouring them in any way. You want to see a farce; see South Korea in 2002.
Wouldn’t mind me some penalty excitement.
Looks like the keeper is going to continue. This will be interesting...
If that keeper stays on, it seems like he was accidentally given one of the Russian 'water' bottles.
With all the running around he's done as a keeper?
I agree it’s ridiculous. But isn’t it really hot there? He probably didn’t hydrate properly. I’m sure it’s just cramp.
I'll be home in half an hour. These cnuts better hold out until then.
That would be Mou's little terrier.
It’s not like Croatia has been great shakes. It’s been Modric and 10 others
I really hope we play Croatia, can not underestimate a home crowd for a World Cup semi. Croatia are pretty crap at the back and Modric is on his last legs.
What ? They're really solid.
Croatia are knackered.
Oh fecking give over.
Watching that game I came to think England has more than a good chance to reach the final.
Lovren is a doctor. " you are good. Knee? Meh, it is nothing. Play on"
