Probably most interesting game today is Croatia - Portugal. For Portugal it's meaningless game, for Croatia it still matters in fight for 2nd place.

While in the first 45 minutes it looks the opposite, like Portugal needs to win the game as they were in the control from the moment the game started.

What to say other than an embarassing display by Croatia in the first half, we are lucky that we are only 1 goal behind. Currently our main problem is our coach Dalic, but unfortunately no one will dare to remove him and we will have to wait from him to decide when its been enough.

Croatia's side played poorly against Portugal's B team, especially in the first half when Portugal dominated possession of the ball. Things improved a bit in the second half with the introduction of new players, but the forwards failed again as usual - and I wonder how anyone can keep Kramaric in the team considering he kicks the ball like a 5-year-old...?

As for coach Dalic, he has a contract for 2 years and the goal is to take Croatia to the World Cup - the League of Nations was less important to them anyway, but they managed to reach the next stage of the competition - the only thing waiting for them there is Spain, Germany or France with which will be very difficult to play.
