England will have to wait another four years for football to come home after a heartbreaking extra time defeat to Croatia. The Three Lions will look for Golden Boot leader Harry Kane to solidify a third place win, while powerful midfielder Eric Dier will sit in front of England's defensive three to clean up any balls that Belgium's creative midfielders come up with.
