Substitution

Substitution

at Croacia
  • 108 '
    Mandzukic off.
  • 108 '
    Straight into the action for Sisto as he tries to curl one from the left. It beats Subasic but also the far post.

    We're off again and Braithwaite has come off for Sisto.
    • 105'
      The end of the first half of extra time... 15 minutes to go or it's penalties!
    • 104 '
      Schmeichel is forced into a save under his cross bar after a Kramaric cross deflects high.
    • 102'
      The clock has ticked into triple figures, and who doesn't love that? Speaks volumes about what is happening on the pitch that we're noticing though.
    Substitution

    Substitution

    at Croacia
    • 97 '
      Kramaric on for Perisic.
    • 95 '
      Corner to Denmark after Croatia just clear some good running down the flanks.
    • 93'
      Interestingly, this is the first time either side has every played extra time in the World Cup.
    • 91'
      And we go again. 15 minutes more!
    • 90'
      And that is it! We will go for an extra thirty minutes!
    • 90 '
      Rakitic sends one just wide.
    • 90'
      Croatia clear a succession of long throws from Denmark and there will be three minutes added on.
    • 86 '
      Corner for Croatia following a good run from Rebic. Nothing from it.
    • 85 '
      Perisic sends a header just over. Kovacic is back on.
    • 83 '
      Kovacic is down in some pain here and it looks painful on his knee as he gets caught between two Danes.
    • 78 '
      A shot from Rebic is easily held by Schmeichel.
    • 72 '
      Denmark beginning to come into this! Jorgensen gets some space in the box but his shot is straight at Subasic.
    • 65'
      Croatia put a couple of aerial balls into the box but Schmeichel deals with the latter with a massive punch.
    • 62'
      Both sides labouring a lot more now... Lucky we got those two early goals!
    • 56 '
      Denmark get the ball in the box but it's a woeful finish from Braithwaite.
    • 49'
      More relaxed start to the half so far... Croatia pushing forward, but the Denmark defence is up to the task.
    • 46'
      And we are back underway!
    • 45'
      And that is half time! The opening four minutes were blinding... The following 41 not so much!
    • 44 '
      The ball runs to Rakitic on the edge of the box but his effort barely troubles Schmeichel.
    • 39 '
      So close! Lovren whistles a header inches wide of the post!
    • 37'
      A few niggly fouls appearing in the midfield now. Much more how we expected this game to go.
    • 34'
      Croatia come again but a foul is given. Schmeichel takes his time over it.
    • 29 '
      Schmeichel pulls off two good saves down the other end now before Perisic fires over! End to end.
    • 27 '
      Braithwaite brings a good save from Subasic as Denmark threaten again.
    • 21 '
      Eriksen picks up the ball and hits one but he is well closed down and it's a corner.
    • 20'
      Penalty appeals by Mandzukic turned down. It looks as if he made a lot of it.
    • 16'
      Both teams a bit more settled now and we might get a game of football rather than the 22-22 goal fest that was being threatened in the opening four minutes.
    • 12 '
      He leaves it to Perisic who sends it off the wall for a corner.
    • 12'
      Dangerous free kick for Croatia... Rakitic over it.
    • 7'
      The World Cup that keeps on giving.

    After Spain's shock exit on what was an already 'easy' side of the draw, the winner of this game will have a very good chance of advancing deep into the tournament - Russia will be next up!
