Croatia v England mainly full despite fan ban

Despite a Uefa ban for crowd trouble, Croatia v England will be mostly full due to an exception for local schoolchildren.

The match in Rijeka officially has a closed-door status, but Uefa rules allow children under 14 from the area to attend. The Croatian federation expects around 5,500 to 6,000 attendees, filling the 8,200-seat stadium to approximately 70% capacity. michezonews.co.za
