Two "tickets" for the World Cup semi-finals are currently waiting for four teams, with Sweden facing England (17.00) while Croatia is faced with Russia's hometown (21.00).
Sweden - England:
Sweden: It tends to crazy the whole world, as there were very few who believed that they could make a good tournament. The Swedes have so far faced strong teams and have gone extremely well, with their last achievement being the qualifying against Switzerland with 1-0 at the regular time.
It should be noted that in its 6/7 most recent games (officially & unofficially) the N / G confirmed.
Probable event: (4-4-2): Olsen - Kraft, Grenvik, Lindef, Ulson - Kloeson, Edmond, Svensson, Forsberg - Berg, Tivonen
England: He needed the penalty shootout to overcome Colombia's hurdle, in a game where he was superior and preceded with a Cain penalty shoot-out at 57. However, where everything showed that the English will keep their lead in the end, Sandy Mina had a different view, sending the game to the end of the 3 'delays. 30 'of the game was very fast and the game went to Russian roulette, with the English screaming for the wrong (winning for 1 in the history of the penalty shootout) and qualifying 8 with 4-3.
Aggressively, it is based almost entirely on Harry Cain. The Tottenham striker has achieved the 66,6% of English goals and is ahead of the scorer's score with six goals, with England totaling nine in the tournament.
Potential: (3-5-1-1): Pickford - Walker, Jones, Maggie - Tripeir, Henderson, Dee Ali, Ligard, Yang - Steirling - Cain.
Assessment: We think it is quite possible to see an extension, but we have doubts if we really get to the penalty shootout (something that has not happened so far). Even lawfully, if we look at it, perhaps today, it's time to become a reality.
Proposal: The race to be judged on the extension with 1 / 3 of the normal starter (performance: 6,50)
Russia - Croatia
Russia: Being faithful to her gameplay, she has achieved a great success, prevalent in the penalty shoot-out of the Spaniards, one of the favorites to win the cup. Although he was quite early back in the 11 'score, with a goal from Ignacevic's own goal, he managed to bring the game to the draw (41') and send the qualification to the extra time. There, he was not particularly threatened, but he did not threaten, so the qualification was judged to be the penalty shootout. It was not possible to lose her own Russian roulette (as we call it), leading to the 8 of the event. Of course, it is the biggest football success of the natural successor of the Soviet Union.
Today, as it does every time, it will have the great but very strong support of its fans, hoping to qualify against a well-run set, like Croatia.
Possible order: (4-2-3-1): Akinfeev - M. Fernandes, Kuteoff, Ignacevic, Kudrizov - Zovbin, Kuzyev - Shametov, Golovin, Cherishev - Jiuba.
Croatian: The Danes have been the largest Croatian hindrance so far, Dalić's team finds it ... dark during the regular time of the match and needs the penalty shootout to qualify for "8". The game did not start with the best omen (1-0 the Danes only at 1 '), but its reaction was immediate (1-1 at 4'). Although the start of the game was a game with many goals, the estimate was wrong, with 1-1 remaining in the 120 'that the two teams played, with Croatia having a big missed opportunity at 116' "Finish" the fight there, with its leader, Luca Montros, failing 11 measures.
With Over2,5 ended the last 3/5 games of the Croatians (officially & unofficially), where in 4/5 they managed to score at least twice.
Remarkable statistic: Croatia has scored as many goals in four games in this year's World Cup (8) as it has in six matches in its two previous World Cup appearances (2006 & 2014).
Probable event: (4-2-3-1): Swabian - Vrsalko, Loveren, Vinda, Strindic - Monrits, Brozovic - Ribic, Rackic, Perisic - Mantucki.
Assessment: The Russians will defend themselves massively, as they did with Spain, and most likely it will force the Croats to lift the ball up to try to score after some kicks or by some. Madjukjic dominates the region's efforts and has exorcised the ... evil with Denmark, today, is able to reach 2 goals in the event.
Proposal: Anytime scorer: Marius Mantzukis with 1 / 2 of the regular starter (performance: 3.20)
