what a game

[Bigpokey24]

from 3-1, Croatia came back.

Very difficult to understand Luis Enrique's use of is squad...

For instance, why bring on Oyazarbal to shore up the right, when you have Traore who has speed to burn on both sides?

And why keep Pedri on when you have Thiago..

[Coach]

The Spanish casually ignoring one of La Liga’s most Imperial centre-midfield maestros. The outcome, devastating. Irony.

A country of 4 million in Croatia with class players, a nation of 200 million cannot come up with 22 players. Why is South Africa so good at Rugby? They have great training facilities, good hygiene regime. Nigeria should implement this from Secondary school then to University then to League. We always seek an easy way out to lay in Europe, look at how Brazil has decline over the years because of jumping to Europe for money. Those U-17 players should by law play in the domestic league for a good 2 years.

What a game for sure. This Spanish team will pass you to sleep but damn they are getting deadly. Their movement OFF the ball is just amazing.

Granted Oyazarbal scored, but the amount of turnovers and loss of possession was startling. Not sure Squarehead sees Traore the way they do at the Molineux. Power player and very good trump card. Surprised he hasn’t been reached for the card trick.

Morata na winsh. Probably the main reason Spain are off to the next round.

The structure for rugby being the whites sport was there for years and well funded with football neglected. Its the same with Nigeria, they need the structure from the grass roots upwards and it would pay off and continue to in years to come if maintained.
