2016 - 46: MOTD Live - Czech Republic v Croatia

Gary Lineker is joined by studio guests Thierry Henry, Danny Murphy and Neil Lennon for live coverage of the Group D game between Czech Republic and Croatia in Saint Etienne

Croatia have twice reached the quarter-finals, on debut in 1996 and again in 2008, and they boast one of the strongest midfields in world football, headlined by Real Madrid's Luka Modric and Ivan Rakitic of Barcelona. However, they struggled to qualify for Euro 2016 and new coach Ante Cacic remains an unpopular choice with the majority of fans, despite making the best start of any Croatia head coach.

The Czech Republic are ever-presents at the European Championship since independence and, in the absence of any true stars, coach Pavel Vrba has instilled a team ethic into his attack-minded, possession-based side.
