    Wow think we have found 2 nations worse at penalties than us...

    Bet they'd still beat us in a shootout

    justice done. Wasn't it the defender who should have been off that missed the last one there as well?

    Some awful penalties but you expect the top players to put them away. Modric and Rakitic did Eriksen didn’t.

    Didn't care earlier but wanted Croatia to win that after the blatant cheating

    So Russia or Croatia will be in a Semi Final

    Hmmm

    If England / Colombia dont reach the Final I can see it being one of the most one sided in World Cup history

    Dont see any of Russia / Croatia / Sweden / Switzerland causing problems for anyone in the other half of the draw

    Eriksen's penalty was probably better than Modric's in a lot of ways (although the only good penalty is a scored penalty tbf)

    Jorgensen's penalty was one of the worst I've ever seen

    Loved the attitude of both keepers, really making it a gladiatorial contest

    I hope Pickford is taking note about the importance of body language and attitude

    It was cheating plain and simple. Everyone knew what the defender was going to do in that situation and it wasn't win the ball.

    Hope Denmark go out now.

    Yep, bit of justice done there.

    Didn't think the last man should be sent off when a penalty is awarded, since the rule change?

    Said on the telly it isn't a straight red if there's a genuine attempt to go for the ball

    Thank you. While I support England, I think we've been setting ourselves up for a fall from the moment the Belgium game ended
