Yea LBSS said it perfect, they were just outclassed. It's a young team and a young manager. It seemed like they just didn't want to make mistakes (hence passing back to Pickford) when they were pressed. If they could've connected on a few passes through the midfield they could've used their advantage in speed and athleticism to catch Croatia on a quick counter. I mean one shot on goal says it all. Also, Harry Kane looked beat down, he just wasn't his normal confident, technical, and strong self. I've never seen him go down on slight contact like that, I think it was just a sign he was worn out. Had he scored on the one opportunity to put England up 2-0, VAR would've overturned the offside and it would've been a different game.
On another note, Luka Modric is amazing, like beyond belief. He needs to win best player for the World Cup and Ballon d or since he won the Champions League with Real Madrid. He's controlled 3 games that went 120 minutes, how nuts is that. I've never seen a player like that, running all over the place then connected on nearly every pass perfectly with either foot and all parts of his foot. Usually teams have a midfielder who runs all over and makes tackles and another who keeps his legs fresher to make accurate decisive passes. He does both consistently and itsss absolutely nuts.
