Croatia star Perisic: 1998 motivates us against France

Croatia sensationally cemented their first ever World Cup final with a dramatic 2-1 extra time win over a gallant England side at Luzhniki Stadium in the Russian capital on Wednesday.

The two teams previously met in their final group stage game when both had already guaranteed a place in the last 16 - with the twist that the side who finished second would land in the easier side of the draw.

Croatia came from behind to win 2-1 in the semi-final clash in Moscow, with Mario Mandzukic claiming the victor in the 109th minute after Ivan Perisic had earlier cancelled out Kieran Trippier´s free-kick opener. They lost the 2016 Euro final 1-0 to Portugal at Stade de France with a roster that included nine holdovers on this year's team.

Croatia's defender Josip Pivaric celebrates with teammates after Croatia's forward Mario Mandzukic (C) scored their second goal during the Russian Federation 2018 World Cup semi-final between Croatia and England at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow on July 11, 2018. "Now there is only one game left to make it forever". We have always respected our opponents and we expect the same from them.

Every French fan remembers clearly the day of 12 July, 1998 when Zinedine Zidane scored a brace and a stoppage time goal from Emmanuel Petit gave France the ultimate glory.

Carmelo Anthony could go to either the Houston Rockets or Miami Heat
But, hey, maybe he could have been the one to make a key 3-pointer when the Rockets missed 27 straight in Game 7... Swapping Melo for a player (s) of lesser value would also create a trade exception for OKC.

Stephanopoulos said he asked Cohen repeatedly if he was considering cooperating with prosecutors in their investigation. Putin is unsustainable", Cohen said. "As long as he tells the truth, we're home free".


"We prepared to get to the final and we want to play it", he said.

The brawl coincided with comments by the West Ambulance Service, which said that it was dealing with a huge rise in violence after England's World Cup hopes were brought to an abrupt end last night.

"The honest thing is it's not a game any team wants to play in", Southgate said ahead of the match against the Red Devils.

The 25-year-old has been in good form for Les Bleus at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, especially in the three knockout fixtures they have played so far, against Argentina, Uruguay and Belgium. We stay as we are from the start of the tournament.

"Some players played with minor injuries with which they would not have played some other games". We played a high press on their backline. "The most hard thing when you're a footballer is to win people's hearts". The players accepted the criticism they received, they took it on board and improved.
