CROATIA ARE THROUGH TO THE SEMI-FINALS OF THE 2018 WORLD CUP!..
Croatia appeared poised to make a change to replace Vrsaljko, with the right-back having pulled up with a leg problem - yet they instead hold off, playing with 10 men as he gets treatment in the technical area. If Subasic isn't fully fit, it will be a massive risk to leave him on.
From a soft corner conceded after Kutepov blasted a safe cross out of his own keeper's hands, it is the Besiktas man who gives his side the advantage for the first time in this game with a well-directed header that flies in at the bottom-right corner. Russia are stunned - they trail after 100 minutes.
Back-to-back corners for Russia yield no luck, though Kuzyaev goes close with a header. The host nation's dream looks to be fading, if Croatia can just hold on
Domagoj Vida's header is the difference between the two sides after 15 minutes of extra-time and, having never been ahead in this game, Croatia are suddenly in the driving seat for a first World Cup semi-final since 1998. Danijel Subasic is still not fully fit in goal for them though; will the hosts be able to exploit his weakness and score an equaliser? Time is running out; at half-time in extra-time, it's Russia 1-2 Croatia.
RUSSIA EQUALISE! 2-2! The boy from Brazil - representing the host nation thanks to a presidential decree - nods home Dzagoev's free-kick with a great glancing header to tuck it into the bottom-left corner. What a goal; what a game we have on our hands.
