No Hendo yet to see the game out? We’d rather go with a right back in there? :lol:

A lot of good from tonight as they've looked like they can score and create for fun (although Croatia might bummed by Ghana and Panama, so you never know at this stage).

Conceded a couple of conceded plenty of chances as well though. Going to have to improve that as the tournament goes on.

...and breath!

Been an excellent second half and thoroughly deserved!

Good use of subs by Tuchel too as they've made a real difference!

Not seen England play like this in a tournament, since, ever?

Been great fun this second half.

You’re welcome, world.

Great performance there.

That 10 minutes at the beginning of the 2nd half was top quality.

Mad decision. Guess Granny Gordon demands a lot less in wages…

Great game for the neutral and a good result for us.

Our performance reminded me a bit of France's where both teams just went up a gear in the second half and dominated.

Some serious concerns about the defence though, we've got a lot going forward but we looked pretty ropey at the back, even right at the end it could easily have been a third for Croatia.

Probably last time was under Terry Venables at Euro 96!
