I don't know if Nani was shooting or not, but I don't think I've ever seen him try to shoot with the outside of his foot from that distance. And I know that HE knows Ronnie would have given him pelters for shooting from there.

Their one decent counter attack of the game, 4 on 4, men at the far post, even Nani is not impetuous enough to use that technique for a shot from that angle/distance, impossible to get any power on it, surprised that people see it as anything other than a pass

Lee Dixon thought he was going for the far post.

If it was closer to the goal, say 12-14 yards out, It would be plausible that it was a shot, might be able to surprise the keeper, but from 20+ given the angle? He really would be as peanut brained as some suggest.

Either way, very disappointed with Croatia, so little ambition in their play today, perhaps they choked given the opportunity they had on this side of the draw but a tame exit given the quality they have.
