    The BBC Sport website certainly has a bias toward Messi and Argentina.

    They are desperate to be able to put Messi up there with Diego. We can all see he isn’t in that league remember this is the best World Cup he has had and he is little more than just another player to this side. Yes he takes the penalties and is the fulcrum - but in truth he is just another player. tonight up against the world class quality of a Celtic right back,,. They want to hype it up to be something more than that because Diego destroyed them at a time that really hurt the English world,

    He will probably get another few here with Croatia desperate to get a goal. But the goat? No chance

    Croatia still not one effort on target.

    And if he carry’s on like this Lovren is going to kill them

    Alvarez is such a dark arts master

    Messi had Xavi and Iniesta… the guy was spoilt beyond all normality, played in Barcelona sides they were the best team in the world without him

    Modric would compliment any side. He isn’t the same as he was though nowadays

    And Alvarez scores a third

    Definitely Argentina’s main man

    Lovely pull back from Messi Gvardiol done like a kipper
