Group D now draws to a conclusion in Tuesday’s final pair of fixtures.

Spain go up against Croatia tonight as the defending champions look to extend their 100% record on the back of wins over Czech Republic and Turkey.

Vicente del Bosque’s men still need a point to top the group and avoid slipping to second place, where they’d be pitted against the winners of Group E, which looks likely to be Italy.

Croatia, meanwhile, are still reeling from a late capitulation against Czech Republic which saw them throw away a two-goal advantage with just 15 minutes left on the clock.

Turkey and Czech Republic go head-to-head in the other match. Fatih Terim’s men are one of only three sides yet to find the net in Euro 2016 and with just two shots on target, it’s fair to say they need to improve their shooting to stand any chance of progressing.

Bearing in mind that both sides were ranked in the bottom three for shots conceded inside the box after the first two rounds of fixtures, though, Fantasy managers will be optimistic of goals in the penultimate night of the group stages.

  13. Jay_

      3 yards of his line

      1. Jonny HOW SON?
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        And what?
        Happens

        1. TJ_777
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Retake if you come of your line, but they never call it

          1. Jonny HOW SON?
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            The keepers should have that little advantage at least

            1. TJ_777
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              That's y it isn't called. There is a funny MLS video where the ref calls it 3 times in a row and the guy finally scores on the third try

      2. TJ_777
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        They don't call it unfortunately

      3. puddingbrood
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        They never call it anyway. It won't be long before they reach the 6 yard line.

        I remember an EPL in which Lampard had to take a peno thrice against West ham. Though that was coz of encroachment by players

    • Norman Conquest
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      lol at ramos owners

      1. Lallana_
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Waited for this 😆

    • tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Wow.

    • RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      He's so far off his line???

      1. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yes.

    • Ziro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Sorry windmillianffflllwyn

    • tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Hoobastank was almost at the 6 by the time he took the shot, but that was a delicate penalty call.

    • Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      hat are the refs on the line for if they dont call that to be re-taken

      1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        So many keepers get away with it as well.

    • paulwilsonpickett
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Anybody know who would take a Croatia PK with Modric and Mandzukic not playing?

      1. TJ_777
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Kalinic mayb

      2. KingZamalek
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Rakitic of course.

    • Ziro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      The reason they get far off the line is penalty takers delaying by stuttering. Should just hit it normally. Not a fan of the stutter.

      1. puddingbrood
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        It's allowed as long as you don't stop. Which is logical cause how would you ever define a stutter.

      2. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        True but one is against the rules, one isn't.

    • Paul Psychic Octopus
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Clearly well off his line and it should be retaken,

      But WTF Spain doing letting that clown take pens? Thought Iniesta was on pens

      1. RᴀᴄɪɴɢTᴏᴀᴅ
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago
