Netherlands v Croatia live: Malen goal puts Oranje in front

That was a lot of fun. Croatia meet either Spain orItaly on Sunday, and let's be real, who won't want Luka Modric to win that one.

A nice little combination between Perisic and Vlasic, then Petkovic turns outside his man and finishes well. But someone is offside, so it won't count - though VAR takes a while deciding.

They just know what you have to do. Koeman hugs Modric, who did half a lap of honour, and the final might be his last international. Enjoy him while you can, mates.

Modric departs, Stanisic arrives. "Luka, Luka, Luka!" chant the crowd and well they might. A total genius.

GOAL! Croatia 4-2 Netherlands (Modric pen) He opens his body and caresses neatly into the side-netting. Game over.

A mistake from De Roon, Malacia chases the ball and slides through Petkovic.

A cross from the right, Majer sliding in to keep the ball in play, and eventually it breaks to Pasalic, who shimmies, eludes the keeper, and murders the ball against the bar and away!

He lets it bounce but manages to get his body around it to see it away.

Which reminds me, in the second half Livakovic was booked for timewasting, but I didn't record it because I lost my picture so was trying to resolve that.

A ball in behind and Bergwijn is after it, slamming a shot that Livakovic beats away. But the ball shoots over to Lang on the opposite side of the box and all he needs to do is slot home! But instead, he pulls it wide of the near post, a high-tariff finish given the options, and he'll not get a better chance than that!

Fara Williams has had a good game, always trying to add value to the pictures and look for patterns rather than just say what the commentator does in different words.

Who's going to score for them now? Van Dijk is up front with Weghorst, but that's a punt which shows a lack of confidence in the process.

De Roon and Malacia on, Gakpo and Ake off.

HALF-TIME IN EXTRA TIME: Netherlands 2-3 Croatia

That'll be enough for half-time in extra time.

They hurl men forward.

He crosses low and hard ... but no one, attacker or defender, can make contact with it.

Majer crosses from the right and it's a peach, De Jong sliding in to turn it around the near post; the resultant corner comes to nowt.
