  • 5' - It looks surprising Croatia does not make any changes. Andrej Kramaric has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' - Supporters expect more eagerness from , as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 15' - Croatia is showing some good football. However, Croatia are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 20' - It looks like no one’s ball. Russia is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 25' - Russia 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.
  • 30' - Russia started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.
  • 31' - What a strike from Denis Cheryshev! The score is 1-0.
  • 35' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Dejan Lovren.
  • 38' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Ivan Strinic on 38.
  • 39' - GOAL! Andrej Kramaric scores on 39. Assisted by Mario Mandzukic
  • 44' - 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 Ivan Perisic suffering a number of foals already.
  • 49' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 54' - Another change for Russia made on 54 minute. Aleksandr Samedov leaves to be changed by Aleksandr Erokhin.
  • 59' - Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 63' - Croatia manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Marcelo Brozovic is hanging Ivan Perisic on the field on 63 minute.
  • 67' - Time for substitution for Russia. Denis Cheryshev is replaced by Fedor Smolov.
  • 72' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Mario Mandzukic made 458 appearances and scored 22 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 74' - Josip Pivaric has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ivan Strinic on 74 minute.
  • 79' - Another substitution for Russia to replace Artem Dzyuba by Yury Gazinskiy on 79 minute.
  • 84' - 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.

  • The final score is 2-2.
