FULL TIME! 3-0. The three-goal blitz in the first half proves enough for Spain. The game was far more even that the score suggests, but Croatia will have to pick themselves up from this. They missed three or four great opportunities, including a penalty. Albania are next up for Croatia while Spain meet Italy.
A lovely run from Kovacic sees the ball roll across to Stanisic as he shoots it's beaten out by Simon and pinballs around the box, but Croatia can't force it in
Croatia have had 11 shots looking dangerous throughout but haven't been able to convert
That was a huge opportunity for Croatia. They have been horrid all day in front of goal. They've missed at least three or four chances they'd normally score.
Drama! Simon saves the penalty brilliant. Perisic is first to the rebound, he squares back to Petkovic to tap it in. VAR however say Perisic encroached on the box so the goal doesn't stand.

Spain VS Croatia
Croatia have seemingly given up on this game. There is no urgency in they play - with or without the ball.
Spain VS Croatia
The game has gone a bit dull at the moment. Spain happy to keep the ball as shouts of 'Ole' ring around the ground with each successful pass.
