Dugout Discussion – Croatia vs Portugal

Saturday evening serves up one last encounter as Croatia take on Portugal for a place in the quarter finals.

Anti Cacic’s side are slight favourites for this one after coming from behind to defeat defending champions Spain 2-1 last time out.

Certainly, the Group D winners pose plenty of close-range threat. Croatia notched five times, netting twice in each of the last two, and were ranked joint-third along with Vincente del Bosque’s side for efforts inside the opposition box over the group stages.

Croatia’s late capitulation against Czech Republic in Matchday 2, where they threw away a two-goal advantage with 15 minutes remaining, offers hope to Portugal.

Fernando Santos’ side arrived at the Euros as a defensive-minded outfit but have fired more attempts on goal than any other side. Given that Cristiano Ronaldo registered an incredible 30 of his nation’s 70 attempts, the Real Madrid man will surely be a pivotal figure if Portugal are to progress.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    In hindsight should have got at least one or two day 3 players in... 43 points from 8 isn't too bad though... Means have to leave Rami or Payet on the bench unless I twist 5 points from bale

        Can twist out perisic and Ramsey for sure - template but then don't have space for the others... Had double Wales D Ralph G, bale Ronny and Grosiki. Defo playing KDB and probably payet so means Rami on bench - should have just Dier instead of him d'oh

        In addition, an attempt which rebounds from the goal frame, the goalkeeper or a defender can be considered as an assist, if it leads directly to a goal.
        When they say attempt they mean shot not pass they say nothing about a pass coming off of a defender

        Turkey defender changed the direction of the ball and that can't happen if you award an assist for a pass. Shot on target and keeper saving it doesn't matter if the ball goes the other way.

            Well I live in Speyside so I have access to quite a wide range or Scotch whisky compared to your average place. I haven't tried it before I sent Mrs Cheese to the local whisky emporium with the remit to get me something I haven't had before and that is what she came back with.

      - First match: Early doors it looked like Poland would run away with it, however they got rubbish as the game matured, Shaqiri scored a cracking goal but alas, it wasn't to be as the Swiss exit on penalties.

      - Second match: ZZZZzzzzZZZzOwnGoalzzzzzZZZZzzzz... huhhwhaa... Is it over yet? What time is it?

      - Third match: See: "Second match". No attempts on either goal until the 119th minute, when a moment of Nanilliance sent Portugal through... Undeservedly, I might add, but this was definitely a case of neither team truly deserving to progress to anywhere but the poolside.

          Have you tried running a comparison in the members area? I usually do this and then do a comparison of the 2 defences as a whole

            That is why I selected Bale ahead of Ronaldo yesterday and that was an astute choice

      Despite not picking up points, KDB looked great against Sweden. Also, Payet has created a great number of chances and France didn't look very good when he didn't play. Both are great picks so go with your gut. It really depends on how open you think the games will be. Go with the player that plays in the less defensive game in your opinion

            Looking at the defensive stats it slightly leans toward Hungary being the weaker defence.

        1-1 with the Slovaks nicking it in ET or pens I fancy. A German KO will be massive for us, like a captain scoring a brace of hatrick.

          Yes it would be great maybe Hamsik brilliance I did consider Weiss bcuz 1% ownership looked super differential, but no balls. Fortunately most of the ownership is hector muller and Ozil. No CS clears hector, and Ozil has been bad so no expected points. Muller the only one im worried about even if he has been mediocre.

      He sure is due, and he can explode. But the main reason for him not getting many points is not really his fault since his crosses were great but nobody put his head against the ball.

          Lacazette to Arsenal is the next Benzema to Arsenal. It started two years ago and its not going to stop as long as Arsene is our manager and Lacazette remains French. I'm less convinced than Aru Serious if that's possible.

        I'm thinking KDB and Muller are due for a while now 😀 and Belgium is a bit tricky (I'm from Belgium btw). We haven't been great and I don't expect us to be against Hungary as well. It will be either a low scoring game or when it is high scoring, it will on counters because the other team had to attack. I'm guessing 2-0 Belgium.
