I enjoyed the match a lot. <br />initially, i was thinking both so strong, maybe will end up doing penalty kicks <br />and i thought i will stop watching after 1st half .... <br />But the game just got more n more exciting n the rhythm was fast , hardly any boring interval.<br />PLUS , I am actually watching my ds who was watching using his laptop in his room - i want to stay awake n make sure he sleep after match ( he asked to let him watch as this is once in 4 yrs, both teams are good, all his frens in sch will be talking abt it so he doesn't want to be left out etc) <br />My dh watch &amp;sleep - even more tiring, i woke him when there is a goal ... hahhahaha...<br /><br />Croatia played v well, no luck though ... after the penalty kick by France, they must be damn stressed !

They were lucky with their group / draw and lost out to the first decent team (not including the farce with Belgium) they have to play in this tournament. <br /><br />Apart from being likable (not having too many Liverpool players helped  <img src="https://forum.kiasuparents.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f602.png?v=f4f27f6278e" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--joy" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":joy:" alt="😂" /> ), this team is relatively lacking in talent and experience compared to many of the other teams, including Croatia (who is full of players who have played and won big games in their career). Most importantly, they lack a half decent no. 10, compared to France’s Mbappe, Belgium’s De Bruyne and Croatia’s Modric. You can’t rely on free kicks and set pieces all the time, at some point, you will have to take the game to your opponent.<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1856949</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1856949</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[floppy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 11 Jul 2018 20:50:22 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to World Cup 2018 on Wed, 11 Jul 2018 20:38:18 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>OMG, England is out <img src="https://forum.kiasuparents.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f61e.png?v=f4f27f6278e" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--disappointed" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":(" alt="😞" /></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1856948</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1856948</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[starlight1968sg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 11 Jul 2018 20:38:18 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to World Cup 2018 on Wed, 11 Jul 2018 06:07:17 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p></p><blockquote><b>dimewdime:</b><blockquote style="border:1px solid black">I think England can nick this time.</blockquote></blockquote><br />Me too<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1856797</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1856797</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Terryy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 11 Jul 2018 06:07:17 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to World Cup 2018 on Tue, 10 Jul 2018 19:55:46 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>I lost my bet on the champion <img src="https://forum.kiasuparents.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f61e.png?v=f4f27f6278e" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--disappointed" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":(" alt="😞" /></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1856685</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1856685</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[starlight1968sg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 10 Jul 2018 19:55:46 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to World Cup 2018 on Sun, 08 Jul 2018 03:26:37 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">I think England can nick this time.</p>
