    Loved that second goal. Mad, but brilliant.

    I still don't think Croatia are out of this ...

    ... they'll score at some point.

    Sorry, I change my mind, Ally McCoist is embarrassing. “What a great run, superb from Alvarez” he was tackled twice and the ball fell perfectly. It was one of the luckiest I’ve seen and McCoist goes on like it’s 86 Maradone!

    This is embarrassing from the officials mind. Ball deflected off a defender and keeper to go out fir a corner, Croatian kicks it back to the post. Goal kick.

    Messi ballses up on the wing, ‘he has to be careful “

    Hate watching such blatantly biased commentary.

    Two players I would pay a lot of money to watch. Unbelievable the pair of them. Modric would have a much bigger reputation if he played higher and scored, but the lad is superb. Messi has so much natural talent, although I dont think he has played well tonight, so far anyway.

    Need to remember what the dutch did last 10 mins. High balls into the box and two lanky lads up there. Argentina couldnt deal with it. Croatia have a big lad on the bench, get him on and go a bit more direct.

    What are these 3 clowns on a about? No penalty? Penalty all day long, clear foul. Keeper comes to save / narrow angle but isnt quick enough. I think they want the striker to jump out of his way or something. Loonies in the studio again.

    I found that strange like <laugh> Neville adamant it’s not a penalty… Can you imagine him if Man U or England had been denied a penalty there?!

    Because the goalie made no effort to go for the ball he clearly obstructed the Argie attacker.

    Even when the ref explained it they still wouldnt have it. It was some of the daftest punditry we have seen, and there has been some daft stuff.

    Class mate. He has been quiet tonight I think, but when he can do that you just have to appreciate him.

    Special. Any other player capable of making that assist after the position he first received the ball?

    Do tv companies employ someone who's job is to scour the crowd to find a bonny lass to zoom in on.
