A draw suits the English and the Czechs, suspect that's what will play out.
Clarke put his faith in our players that can use the ball well - gilmour and mcgregor in particular....and got his reward. McGinn got further forward as a result.
I don't think Tierney was 100 per cent but he cruised it. The balance in the team was much better with him and mctominay at the back - even if they aren't natural CBs.
Croatia will be tough, they have a big incentive now too. But our record is good with them, just wish we had a better striker than dykes - even though he ran himself into the ground last night.
