Croatia and England with great ambitions to win the semi-finals

Moscow The last time the Three Lions were in the semi-finals of the World Cup (1990), Croatia had not yet gained independence. That happened a year later. Now the expectations are for a real show in Moscow, the fans of England have lost their sober reasoning after a calm victory over Sweden at the 1/4 finals and without a doubt reaching the last 4 is a big hit for the Three Lions who left without serious ambitions. Their magnificent performance was made under the watchful eye of Gareth Southgate and the direction of Harry Kane, who inspired and led the underrated gamer group to unexpected glory. Meanwhile, Croatia has the creative genius of Luke Modric shining on the world. But the chess players needed extra time and penalties in the previous two stages to expel Russia and Denmark. It can not have exhausted them physically and mentally. England players are on the seventh heaven right now and intend to stay at this height after meeting the Balkans. The three Lions may lack creativity, but static situations make it so irrelevant. Less than half of this Mongolian's goals came from "dead ball" situations. This is the world championship A static stadium tournament in Russia has no better team of similar games from England. Gareth Southgate players have scored 5 goals in corners and free kicks – most of them on the forum. They were also scored three penalties – more than any other team. Or a total of 8 goals from static positions – a figure reached recently in Portugal in 1966.

The story suggests that eventually this can prove decisive for the trophy. When Zlatko Dalych took over the chess players at the end of 2017, he faced the dilemma of effectively using two of the world's best midfielders – Ivan Rakitic and Luka Modric. The specialist has chosen a 4-2-3-1 system that gives excellent results and the Real Madrid midfielder plays the role of a dozen. His influence on the tournament in Russia is immense. In the quarterfinals with Sbornaya, he touched the ball 139 times and made 102 pbades. Rakitic has less influence, but if they work in the best light, the midfielder Three Lion will have serious problems. The experience is also on the side of Croatia. In the composition of the Balkans, 9 leagues of championship were won, whereas in England only 1. A large number of chess players have been together for almost a decade, with the main characters, Modrich, Manjukic and Rakitic, beginning in late 2006 and early 2007 -a. The feeling in the country is that this team is now at the top and has never been happier as a group. "They are all engaged in the national jersey, they are good friends on and off the pitch, and they also believe in the breeder." Zlatko knows how to talk to them and knows their DNA, "Tomislav Dasovic of Evening Sheet.This will be the eighth clash between the two nations.England has 4 successes and Croatia only 2. Up to here the two teams are are encountered once in a big tournament.That 's what happened in the Euro 2004, while the 18 – year – old English teenager, Wayne Rooney, scored 2 times for the Three Lions victory in 4: 2. The chess players, however, took their revenge in the Euro 2008 qualifiers when they won 3: 2 at Wembley and the Albioniens missed the international forum in Austria and Switzerland. "We came out of a lot of heavy games, and in some of us we did well, in others we did not respect England, we are even worried because they're a great team but they're not better than us! "We are pleased with what we are We have achieved so far We are among the top four teams in the world We respect England, Belgium and France, but none of them is stronger than us " Zlatko Dalić, who according to media reports in Croatia is "the most popular person in the country at the moment".
