BBC3 explanation was good, albeit that I couldn't repeat it here, but as I understand it, if Croatia win it's Spain and Ireland going home from the group.
Ramos certainly took the ball, I am not sure if he caught Mandzukic on the follow through or if the Croat kicked his foot. I would like to see it some more but I did not think penalty to be honest.
Why is Given even playing? Why not give the second choice a run-out for a meaningless game, he's hardly going to do any worse is he.
Assuming Spain get through I cannot see anyone beating them, I can see a disciplined team qualifying at their expense though if they can keep their nerve in a penalty shoot out.
