World Cup Semifinal Gamethread: Croatia vs England

Croatia vs England

France defeat Belgium on Tuesday to move on to the World Cup Final, so now the only question remaining is who will join them on the field.

The side of the bracket that Croatia and England have gone through to get to the semifinal is unquestionably easier than the France and Belgium side of things. Croatia needed to penalty shootouts to get past Denmark and Russia, and England needed a shootout to get past Colombia before beating Sweden in the quarterfinal.

2. Refresh the page regularly to keep up with the discussion. One refresh every 55-60 seconds is ideal but if that’s too much then just try for one every five minutes and after every goal.
3. The goal celebrations are for everyone to participate in. Even if you’re lagging behind the others, keep replying to the most recent call of the player’s name. Even if you missed the first call, just start from the second, and so on.
4. While swearing is allowed within reason, please be polite to your fellow posters and avoid gratuitous obscenities.
