Live comments

  • 0' - In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for Russia and Croatia.
  • 5' - 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.
  • 10' - 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 Vedran Corluka suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' - It looks surprising Croatia does not make any changes. Ivan Strinic has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' - Fedor Kudryashov needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 25' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 30' - Russia is showing some good football. However, Russia are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 31' - Russia is taking the lead after the goal scored by Denis Cheryshev on 31.
  • 35' - Dejan Lovren was booked on 35.
  • 38' - Ivan Strinic was booked on 38.
  • 39' - Goal! Andrej Kramaric scores his 97 goal in 350 matches.
  • 44' - It looks like no one’s ball. Croatia is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 49' - Luka Modric has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 40 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 54' - The whistle greets Aleksandr Samedov as he departs to be replaced 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' - The Croatia manager makes a substitution. Ivan Perisic departs to be replaced by Marcelo Brozovic.
  • 67' - Another substitution for Russia to replace Denis Cheryshev by Fedor Smolov on 67 minute.
  • 72' - 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.
  • 74' - Another change for Croatia made on 74 minute. Ivan Strinic leaves to be changed by Josip Pivaric.
  • 79' - The whistle greets Artem Dzyuba as he departs to be replaced by Yury Gazinskiy.
  • 84' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 88' - The supporters are chanting for Mateo Kovacic. He replaces Andrej Kramaric on 88 minute.
