Croatia vs England 2018 (Croatia-England 2018)
Final score and result:- Croatia vs England 2-1 (Perisic, Mandzukic/Trippier)
Luzhniki Stadium, Moscow- 11 July, 2018
Croatia reach their first ever World Cup final after getting the better of England in extra time in Moscow
Two decades after lifting the World Cup as French captain, Didier Deschamps will look to do the same as manager when his Les Bleus side take on Croatia in the final at the Luzhniki Stadium. Victory on Sunday evening in Moscow will propel Deschamps into an elite group that has won the World Cup both as player and manager- joining the likes of the legendary Franz Beckenbauer (1974 and 1990) and Mario Zagallo (1958 and 1970)
This Kieran Trippier goal vs Croatia (GIF VIDEO BELOW) saw the right wing back score his first ever international goal for England with a stunner in their Cup semifinal. Trippier’s goal against Croatia was a beautiful free kick in the 5th minute to put Gareth Southgate’s men ahead- the foul leading to the free kick was conceded by Luka Modric
