GOAL! CROATIA 0-1 ENGLAND (Trippier, 5)

WHAT A GOAL. WHAT A START.

Kieran Trippier steps up and curls a beauty into the top right corner! Subasic fell to his left, but knew he was getting nowhere near it!

1. 'What a start'
   Croatia 0-1 England

   What a free-kick that was. Neither side had settled into the game but Kieran Trippier steps up and gets it over the wall. It's a great angle and the goalkeeper is miles away from it. What a start for England.
   
   
2. 'Beautiful'
   Croatia 0-1 England

   The technique for this is beautiful. Up and down. Perfect. I love Gareth Southgate's reaction - just a warm glow. They're my boys and they've made a great start.

I must say..Nice free kick. ..Got Beckham standard

 

[twentyfour]

Good. Both sides fighting. Compared to the snooze fest yesterday. LOL!

TOP TRIPPIER
Kieran Tripper's first England goal - their 12th at this summer's tournament - sees the Tottenham full-back become the third Englishman to score in a World Cup semi-final after Sir Bobby Charlton and Gary Lineker.

 

[AhMeng]

Croatia nervous siah....

 

[twentyfour]

Come on Croatia. Fight back!

 

[AhMeng]

Will England be able to hold the lead?

 

[AhMeng]

Come on Croatia. Fight back!

Game still early..

Referee kelong... should be a corner for the Croatians

 

[AhMeng]

BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM

- Kieran Trippier is the second England player to score a direct free-kick goal at a World Cup (since 1966), following David Beckham who scored one in both 1998 and 2006. Inspiration. #ENGCRO #ENG #WorldCup pic.twitter.com/fDvVY5nFEB
