at Croacia
  • 97'
    A lot of the Croatian players going down with injuries now. It's been a long tournament. Corluka is on and they are out of subs.

    And that is full time! We are going to have an extra 30 minutes.

    Kramaric fires one high and wide.

    Goalkick to Russia as another Croatia move breaks down following a poor pass.

de Rusia en el 31'

    GOAL! Russia take the lead! Cheryshev curls a beauty past Subasic!
  • 28'
    A quieter period in the game now, with Croatia pressing but not creating.
  • 21'
    Russia's tactic very much seems to be get the ball to big man Dzyuba up front as quickly and as directly as possible.
  • 16'
    Rakitic hits it over the bar.
  • 15'
    A free kick in a very promising position for Croatia.

    An open game this as Russia win the ball in defence and launch a counter attack. The move breaks down on an over-hit pass but that is promising for the home side!
  • 11'
    A cross comes to Mandzukic's feet but he mistimes his effort and skews it for a goalkick.

    Croatia gaining a foothold now. They have dominated possession in the last few minutes and now have another corner.

    Chance for Russia but Dzyuba's volley is blocked.
  • 2'
