2018 FIFA World Cup - 11 July 2018

Loading player...
The second semi-final of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia will be played this evening when Croatia and England go head-to-head in Moscow.

They will be battling it out to earn the right to face France on Sunday in the final.

Last night, Les Bleus, established themselves as the favourites for a second title when they beat the much fancied Belgium 1-0 in St. Petersburg.

Not much separated the two teams, and it only difference turned out to be a set-piece which the defender, Samuel Umtiti, headed for the winner.

It’s the third time at the French have reached the final, and they will back themselves, regardless of who they will be playing against for a second title.

England in their turn, are playing in their first semi-final since 1966, when they went on to win the World Cup for the first and only time.
