England out of the World Cup after extra-time defeat to Croatia - as it happened

in #blockchain6 years ago

England's World Cup dream has come to an end after the side were beaten 2-1 after extra-time by Croatia.

The Three Lions pulled ahead after just five minutes through Kieran Trippier's sublime free-kick and for the following 62 minutes it was England who looked set for a place in the final.

But Ivan Perisic levelled for Croatia to take the game to extra-time before Mario Mandzukic struck in the 109th minute to put Zlatko Dalic's men in front.

England pushed on but were ultimately unable to find an equaliser. They now face Belgium in Saturday's third-place decider while Croatia go through to the final where they meet France.2843a3fe-aa80-455b-b1ea-9f74b0524732.jpge854dea3-c911-4696-bf16-bc486edf3e74.jpg
