Croatia are back on track. A 3 2 win over Spain puts them level on points with England. The winner of the game on sunday (England vs Croatia) will advance to the NL Semis. The loser will go down to League B. In the event of a draw, Spain will top the group and Croatia will be relegated.

France's WC party is over tonight as the Dutch, in a very impressive and dominant display , won the game 2-0 and have a chance to overtake France if they win at Geselkirchen vs Germany. As a French supporter, I think it was long overdue for Deschamps to suffer such a defeat. imo, it's the best that could have happened for France to change what needed to be.

England vs Croatia right now. Winner takes all and qualifiies for the final four of the League of Nations next june. The loser will be relegated to League B. In the event of a draw, Spain will advance to the final four, and either Croatia (in the event of goaless draw) or England (in the event of a draw where Croatia scores at least one goal) will go down to League B.

England really should be in front. Sterling was one on one with the keeper and typically messed his chance up. He's a bottler for England, you can see the lack of confidence from him every time he plays for England. Kane missed an easy chance too.

Kalinic's having a field day so far !!

England dominate all over the place and should be in front. Tbf with Croatia and how excellent they were in their win over the overhyped Spain, they definitely look tired.

Did Kovacic not get called up?

Either that or on the bench. Good for CFC I guess.

The trumpet guy was late on Thursday si he needs to make up for it. 

Barkley close there but didn’t catch it right. 

Unrelated, but Germany are in League B !!!!! UNBELIEVABLE !!!! The fall continues for the former World Champions.

Man, that was awful, Londonisblue!

Holland was good, but France ... My God! 

Well a typical England performance ...its about as exciting as watching paint dry; look nervy at the back and missed chances at the front.  Barkley is clearly saving himself for the weekend, as he is for the most part, jogging and strolling around the pitch watching the game go by.  Dier...what does he offer?   Can see changes at half time or very shortly after.

A draw and the World Champion has a problem.

I agree. A burnley like performance when you're World Champions is fcuking embarassing. But props to Holland, they deserved to win and should have scored more had LLoris not been on fire !

I forgot about that. Indeed, a point will be enough for Holland.

I think they needed a change in management after the World Cup. Joachim Low has been excellent for them, but he's been manager for 12 years now, I think it's time for something new.

I actually thought England were pretty decent in the first 20-25 minutes. The game has gone a bit flat since Kane had those two chances to score though.

The trumpet guy plays always the two same songs.

I told it before. France played the perfect game against Belgium.

Sterling is so frustrating.

Woeful defending.....

Quite a goal for Kramaric !!! Now England must win to avoid relegation to League B !

Awful defending from England, put a f**king tackle in.

England need two, but I think they are too wasteful to get it.
