Live comments

  • 0' - The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Croatia and Belgium has kicked off!
  • 5' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Dries Mertens made 453 appearances and scored 61 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 10' - The travelling Belgium supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 15' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
  • 20' - Belgium is showing some good football. However, Belgium are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 25' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Croatia that had 165 games and scored 38 goals.
  • 30' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Dominik Livakovic suffering a number of foals already.
  • 35' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 40' - Croatia started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 40.
  • 45' - It’s high time Roberto Martinez made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 46' - Belgium manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Romelu Lukaku is hanging Dries Mertens on the field on 46 minute.
  • 51' - Croatia is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 56' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Croatia needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 59' - Thorgan Hazard is replacing Leandro Trossard for the Belgium side.
  • 64' - Croatia manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Bruno Petkovic is hanging Marko Livaja on the field on 64 minute.
  • 67' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Leander Dendoncker.
  • 72' - Jeremy Doku has so much to prove this time. He replaces Yannick Carrasco on 72 minute.
  • 77' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 82' - Belgium seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 87' - It is a substitution in Belgium team. Thomas Meunier is replaced by Eden Hazard on 87 minute.
  • 88' - The supporters are chanting for Eden Hazard. He replaces Thomas Meunier on 88 minute.
  • 90' - Another substitution for Croatia to replace Mateo Kovacic by Lovro Majer on 90 minute.
  • The final score is 0-0.
