Live comments

  • 0' - The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Croatia and Nigeria has kicked off!
  • 5' - It’s high time Zlatko Dalic made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 15' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Danijel Subasic made 361 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 20' - Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 25' - It looks like no one’s ball. Croatia is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 30' - It’s a booking for Croatia player. Ivan Rakitic gets a Yellow card.
  • 32' - Nigeria is taking the lead after the goal scored by Oghenekaro Etebo on 32.
  • 37' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ivan Strinic suffering a number of foals already.
  • 42' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 47' - Luka Modric has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 29 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 52' - Croatia is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 57' - Croatia started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 57.
  • 60' - The Croatia manager makes a substitution. Andrej Kramaric departs to be replaced by Marcelo Brozovic.
  • 62' - Another substitution for Nigeria to replace Alex Iwobi by Ahmed Musa on 62 minute.
  • 67' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 70' - The referee shows Nigeria player a Yellow card on 70.
  • 71' - What a strike from Luka Modric! The score is 1-1.
  • 72' - Kelechi Iheanacho is replacing Odion Ighalo for the Nigeria side.
  • 77' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Nigeria needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 78' - It is a substitution in Croatia team. Ante Rebic is replaced by Mateo Kovacic on 78 minute.
  • 83' - Alex Iwobi needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 86' - Marko Pjaca is replacing Mario Mandzukic for the Croatia side.
  • 88' - It is a substitution in Nigeria team. John Obi Mikel is replaced by Simeon Nwankwo on 88 minute.
  • 89' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Marcelo Brozovic.
  • With this win, Croatia is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
