That's the difference between Modric and Eriksen at this moment in time.

Makes the difference in big games.

How is that not a red card? What a stupid rule. The guy had an open goal.

Why isn’t that red? Great save but really Denmark should be down to ten. Have to have more punishment for stopping a certain goal.

I want Denmark to win but not sure why G Nev is loving them so much. Echos of Suarez.

No double punishment (pen and a red) right? Unless it’s dangerous play or something

The pen was bad because it was always going to the right. He completely telegraphed it.

It’s because they deserve this game to go to penalties at the very least.

It was a genuine attempt to play the ball, hence no red.

I wonder if Modric will want to take a penalty in the shootout now?

That was a backpass wrapped up in a penalty. Dreadful.

Neville is looking at it from an England POV.

Denmark or Russia as a QF opponent would be ideal for England.

However, Colombia will have something to say about that.
