Croatia is ready to maintain their great home form. Aside from their 4-1 hiding by England in 2008 Slaven Bilic’s Croatia have a superb record at home in competitive games.

On Feb. 6, 2008, England played their first game under the reign of Fabio Capello against Switzerland. Excitement was in the air as the disciplinarian Italian was seen as the answer to a nation’s prayers. His forceful nature would be a breath of fresh air and the exact right motivation for a group of players who were spoiled and allowed into a comfort zone. Over two years on, and...

Indeed some will find their way into those features, years hence, that recall names and events from past U.S. Opens. First, there were two champions unable to defend their U.S. titles.
