@Skybird if what is what you wrote is right, they fit perfectly well into the current worldwide political situation with the right wing getting strong everywhere. And when it comes to football, almost all hooligans are not entirely 'left-wing'

Whatever they play better than France, Cro just had bad luck this time in the beginning. Lots of goals.. And Croatia has much less means, time and possibilities to train and maintain a football team. They are very good despite of that, and a win would help their small country. May the best win, not the luckiest.

And France wins 4:2 against Croatia, congrats!

They blocked again and sometimes tried to delay, however this was a better game to watch than how France acted in the semi final, against Belgium.

I thought it was so crass when that one French player made the "L" sign while facing the opposing fan section.
