Luka Modric and Ivan Rakitic were Croatia's danger men in their match against England, they have been all through the tournament.
The Real Madrid midfielder conceded an early free-kick and the Barcelona star was quiet, but the creative force was too much.
The black humour about Luka Modric, Ivan Rakitic and what they might do to England had been washing around social media all day.
There's a reason why Andres Iniesta has described the Croatians as 'two of the most complete midfielders I see, two modern footballers who have it all' and when the team sheet circulated, you sensed that England was going to face their full force.
Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric was seen as the main danger man for Croatia. However, it was Modric who brought down Dele Alli for the free kick which England scored.
The playmaker recovered from that error to drive forward much of Croatia's attacking play. Internazionale's Marcelo Brozovic started in front of Croatia's defence, holding the midfield - allowing two of the most complete players of their generation to operate and inflict danger high up the field.
Ivan Rakitic and Luka Modric have just displayed their best which has been fruitful. Croatia's win over England was easy since Croatia had to come from one goal down.
They will now come up against France, which has been up there among the tournament's best.
