When you look at their exploits at Russia 2018, it’s hard not to be hugely disappointed and underwhelmed by Croatia’s performances at this tournament so far. Zlatko Dalic’s men have picked up just a single point and they barely created anything in their opening match against England.
Admittedly, their xG numbers were much improved last time out (0.96), however, they still lack a little cutting edge. Scotland started their Euro 2020 with a disappointing defeat, however, they deserved their point on Friday night. They defended in numbers and managed to cut out any costly mistakes along the way.
Steve Clarke’s men had plenty of efforts on goal, but they just appear to lack a little composure and the ball just didn’t fall for them. They need to be far better in the final third, however, they will certainly battle and scrap their way through the 90 minutes. They might not be able to reignite the passion of playing England, however, they should take something from this.
