We were much better in the first half against a nervous Croatia who were rattled by our early goal. Can't believe Kane didn't find the goal from two yards away, and we just didn't get the second goal that we needed which would have killed the game. Second half, it was back to England of yesteryear, hoof the ball long, lose it, defend an attack, then hoof it away again. Once Croatia scored, they looked far more confident. In the end they just ran England ragged, and our players ran out of legs.
Still, a weak-looking England team has surprised us all, and both players and manager were much more likeable than previous England teams.
