You’re right SeaHawkFan, never a penalty in a million years. The ref folded under pressure. I feel a certain amount of sympathy for him. I can only imagine how intense it must be to be put in charge of such a high profile game. That’s what he signed up for though. Croatia deserved a point.
I had no idea that the Croatian coach, Niko Kovac, was so inexperienced. The stuffed suits will probably fine him, but he only spoke the truth. I think Croatia have enough about them, to get out of the group. An encouraging start for them. (goalkeeping issues aside!)
Croatia should beat Mexico and Cameroon.
