    I am not surprised it is how Croatia made their way to the final four years ago by playing it cautiously. In the second half I felt they had the opportunity to push it a little bit.

  2. 'The level dropped in the second half'

    It was a slightly different second half. Croatia have done well to get themselves back into the game thanks to Perisic's header. After that there were plenty of changes and the level dropped. It was more stop start. We will see how much energy these players have as we go into extra time.

  4. FULL-TIME

    Japan 1-1 Croatia

    The whistle goes. We're going to extra time.

  5. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Japan on the attack with seconds to go.

  6. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Takumi Minamino comes forward for Japan - but they haven't gambled with numbers - so he ends up going backwards.

  7. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Peter Schmeichel
    Former Manchester United goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Live

    We are back to normal with only four minutes added on.

  8. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Ante Budimir fouls a defender as he goes for a cross and it's a free out to Japan. I can't see many/any chances before full-time.

  9. INJURY TIME

    Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Four minutes added on. If there's no goals there'll be another 30.

  11. YELLOW CARD

    Japan 1-1 Croatia

    First yellow card of the game as Croat Mateo Kovcacic comes flying in and wipes out Junya Ito.

  12. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Into the final minute now. Japan have a throw-in.

  13. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Croatia have attempted the last seven shots in this game. Japan haven't had one since Ritsu Doan after an hour.

  14. SUBSTITUTION

    Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Ex-Liverpool man Takumi Minamino is on for Ritsu Doan.

  15. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Ivan Perisic crosses for Mario Pasalic, who heads wide.

  16. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Not a load happening to be honest. Have both sides settled for extra time?

  17. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Ivan Perisic is the first player to score in three successive World Cup knockout stage matches since Diego Forlan and Wesley Sneijder (both in 2010).

  18. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Peter Schmeichel
    Former Manchester United goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Live

    We are in a very interesting phase of the game. Do you go for it? Or take your chances with extra time?

    At the moment if I was Zlatko Dalic I would go for it. It is there for them.

  19. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Imagine a Japan v South Korea derby for a place in the semi-finals. A lot has to happen for that mind...

  20. Japan 1-1 Croatia

    Brazil or South Korea for the winner of this.
