Euro 2008 qualifier. With only one point needed from two games, England under the command of their brilliant manager, er, what's his name I have forgotten now - failed to do this.
The last minute of play followed by Croatians jumping up and down.
England were all over them for the first few minutes and I thought that England winning the group by a three goal margin was perfectly possible. Two luckly breaks in the first 15 minutes and we were two nil down.
The weather favoured the defence but at least they kept trying and gave us some hope for ten minutes that we would have something to watch next summer.
After Israel had gone to so much trouble to get a last minute winner - then we get this. We cannot even beat Croatia at home.
Lets face it may be it is the fault of Andorra! Israel gave us a last minute life line - surely Andorra could have beaten Russia - or at least got a draw. Now I understand! It is all Andorra's fault!!!!!
Pathetic!

And if you REALLY want to suffer, here is the match report from UEFA:
A late long-range goal from substitute Mladen Petrić sent Croatia to UEFA EURO 2008™ as Group E winners and ended the hopes of England, who had battled back from two goals down in a gripping encounter.
Rousing contest
Needing only a draw to progress, England made the worst possible start as Niko Kranjčar and Ivica Olić found the net in the first quarter-hour to put Croatia in command. The home side rallied in the second period, however, Frank Lampard halving the deficit from the penalty spot in the 56th minute before Peter Crouch volleyed the equaliser nine minutes later. Just as it looked as if England would earn the point they needed, though, Petrić drilled in with 13 minutes left to finally kill off their challenge.
Croatia in control
Scott Carson replaced Paul Robinson in goal for England but that decision backfired within eight minutes as Kranjčar cut inside from the left and unleashed a dipping shot that squirmed through the goalkeeper and into the net. Although Shaun Wright-Phillips drew a save from Stipe Pletikosa almost immediately, the visitors doubled their advantage with a clinical counterattack in the 14th minute, Eduardo da Silva slipping Olić through to round Carson and roll in.
England rally
England manager Steve McClaren brought on a second forward in Jermain Defoe and David Beckham -- for his 99th cap -- at half-time and though Eduardo was denied by Carson's legs, the changes revived England. Lampard sent Pletikosa the wrong way from the spot eleven minutes after the restart following Josip Šimunić's tug on Defoe and while Carson had to make two fine saves from Olić, the home side then equalised five minutes past the hour. Crouch collected Beckham's right-wing cross on his chest and volleyed into the corner of the net.
Petrić stunner
Croatia, however, refused to settle for a point and continued to press forward looking for a third goal. They got their reward in the 77th minute as two substitutes combined to devastating effect. Danijel Pranjić slipped a pass inside for Petrić to drill a 25-metre shot across Carson and restore their lead and, despite pressing forward in the final ten minutes, England's efforts were all in vain.

England, under …
England, under McClown, was humiliated before it got to the euros. At least in 2000, 1992 etc under different leadership we were humiliated once we arrived!
I disagree. Englan, …
I disagree. Englan, at least out of the big nations, are crap. They would be humiliated at the Euros, especially under McClown. England will never ever win a major comp’ again. 42 years of hurt can quickly turn into 542 years of hurt.
England would have …
England would have had a group with Sweden, Greece and Spain. And still not made it through to the next round. In fact – if memory serves me correctly, England only made it out of the group stage twice – in 1996 and 2004.
As Bobby Robson said after losing to Sweden 2-1 in 1992 ‘We are not very good at tournaments.’
I’m gutted Scotland …
I’m gutted Scotland never made it, they deserved to. Ah well,at least we can watch Euro 2008 without having to hear about how England can definetly go all the way this time. Yet, we’re still hearing of Eng-er-land. Even though they are not in it, we still get to watch the match hearing from John Motson & co about how the Euros would be so much better if England were there.
congratulations!!
