Obviously I'd prefer to see Croatia go through, it will be a good game though.
England really havent shown me much in this tournament but I am concerned that Croatia peaked against Argentina and have been in decline since, so advantage England on that score.
But ultimately, I watched the French sleepwalk their way through one of the most talented teams in the world and it really looks like they've easily got another couple of gears to grab at exactly the right moment.
I definitely pegged them as underachieving due to Deschamps, but they are rolling on.
Barring something major, this is France's Cup to lose. Come on Croatia, prove me wrong!
