The Ref Stop
For the dangerous both feet jump into James? Red for me.

I'd have liked to see a penalty for the careless push on James as well.
 
A game of incident this, Croatia "could" have had three reds here.

Ref got to bring that back there for foul on Wilson, no advantage came from letting it go.

Great advantage, Welsh player took a touch in the box when he should have shot or passed 1st time. Can't blame the ref for anything there
 
Difficult game for Bjorn Kuipers but overall I thought he did well and most of it with a smile on his face. My initial view of the Vika challenge on James was red, but replays (when they originally showed them) was that a caution was probably about correct. Petkovic on Ampadu was a very heavy challenge but a caution was the right outcome, as was Modric on Wilson.

The one thing I think he definitely got wrong was allowing Wales's goal to stand. Davies got the ball, but he came right through Kovacic to get it and I can see why Croatia were unhappy. One of those that would be let go 10 years ago, but these days the expectation would be a foul.
