Scotland 1-0 Croatia: How Ben Doak left Modric & Gvardiol in shade
Before Docker comes on, it will be a paean to Luka Modric and his array of brilliant passes, his uncanny ability to make everything look so easy, and his uncanny ability to find space in crowded areas ability.
Scotland sent one after another towards him, and he counted them in and counted them out.
No Scotsman ruffled his feathers. The job fell instead to the Israelites. What does professional referee Orel Grinfeeld have to say about this? A world-class whistle, at least from a Scottish perspective.
Greenfield sounded like a character from a Fantastic Beasts movie and became a beauty to the previously anxious home fans when he sent off Petar Sucic before half-time. figure.
So far, the Tartan Army has been living off nerves. Scotland were lucky to hold on to the draw. Frankly, they are everywhere.
Busy and hustling, looking at the world, they seem ready to sink deeper into a bottomless pit of bad outcomes.
Croatia should have scored a goal or two but didn’t. If they’re frustrated, it’s nothing compared to what they’re about to face.
After receiving a yellow card, Susic was found guilty of charging into John Souttar, resulting in a red card. It’s unfair, suddenly Modric is out of form.
He shouted, he laughed sarcastically, he waved his arms in disbelief. Then he was booked. He will miss Portugal on Monday.
One of his coaches stared at Greenfield during halftime, a scene that had a slightly comedic effect. When the Croatian advanced, he received a yellow card. Pantomime stuff. Wonderful.
