    That decision not to send off Zanka was spot on as far as the rules go. Whether you agree with that or not is another matter.

    Kyle: Amazing how many great players have missed penalties in crucial moments of matches. Messi, Ronaldo and Modric. The pressure sometimes gets to them all

    Mike: Does Modric take a penalty in the shoot out now?

    Samuel: I wouldn't class that as genuine attempt to get the ball

    The winners face Russia in the quarter-final remember.

    Danish fans are dancing to my right, the Croats to my left are a little less mobile right now. Neutrals bang into a shootout situation.

    This has been a game perfectly designed for the fast forward button.

    The opening four minutes and the final few have been excellent.

    That should be a penalty goal like a penalty try in rugby. Cheated to prevent a winning goal

    It would have been a travesty if Modric had scored because Croatia didn't deserve to win the game.

    Almost done. It's hard to see Croatia winning this now, right?

    Denmark are reprieved. Does that make them favourites in the shootout now? Momentum and all that jazz?

    It's a great save by Schmeichel and it shouldn't have been a red card for Zanka because he made an attempt to win the ball. The referee got it right.

    Of all the players on the pitch, you'd back Luka Modric to score that. He might have to take another one in just a few minutes' time...

  14. SAVED PENALTY!published at 116 mins

    Croatia 1-1 Denmark

    SAVED IT!

    It's a poor. poor penalty from Luka Modric! Kasper Schmeichel is well off his line and guesses right, gathering it in.

    Late drama, but the penalty was as poor as this game deserved...

    Zanka is booked, not sent off. 'New' rules.

    Croatia 1-1 Denmark

    Hello! One great pass from Luka Modric sends Ante Rebic in on goal, he skips around Kasper Schmeichel and is bound to tap it in until Zanka brings him down!

    Late drama! Denmark want a VAR review but that's a penalty all day long...

    A throw in is nodded on, Nicolai Jorgensen tries a shot from a silly angle and miskicks it wide.

    Penalties close in like a fog.

    Jack: The thought that one of these teams or Russia will be in the World Cup semis is pretty upsetting. Is international football going through a drought?

    Wiggi: Did anyone say Championship football, when the long throw is your main attacking weapon?

    Rob: Good to see Pione Sisto on for DEN. Really rate him after a good performance against United for Celta Vigo.

    A lot of people seem to think Die Hard 4 is the secod-best Die Hard. Maybe I'm getting it mixed up with the fifth installment.
