Nikola Vlasic scored a late header as Croatia booked their place in the World Cup last 32 with victory over already-qualified Ghana in Philadelphia.

Zlatko Dalic's side needed to avoid defeat against the Black Stars to be sure of a place in the knockout stages, but Vlasic's effort seven minutes from time ensured they qualified as runners-up to England – who beat Panama in Group L's other game.

Ghana defender Derrick Luckassen had cancelled out Petar Sucic's stunning first-half opener in the 73rd minute, but the Black Stars were unable to hold on for a point and will now head into the last 32 as one of the best third-placed sides.

Croatia's victory also ended any lingering hopes Scotland may have had of qualifying for the knockout stages.

The Scots would have needed Croatia to lose by three goals or more to keep their hopes alive.

It's a fair point Yulian, and Scotland certainly came off the worst in that regard, playing their matches earlier then having to wait it out.

Playing Haiti - the lowest-ranked side - first in what was a very tough group also had an impact on their chances. Their 1-0 win was never going to be enough, was it?

Senegal, for example, lost against France and Norway, but squeezed through on three points thanks to a 5-0 win in their final game against Iraq.

They were the only third-placed side to make it through on three points, courtesy of their +2 goal difference.

In hindsight, Scotland could only have made it through by claiming a draw against Brazil in their final game.

But if they had been playing later in the competition, and faced Haiti in their final game, would that have made a difference to their chances?

Harry Kane became England's record World Cup goalscorer as they recovered from an unconvincing start to overcome Panama and finish top of Group L.

Jude Bellingham broke a frustrating deadlock to put England ahead after 62 minutes, then crossed for Kane to double their advantage with a close-range header five minutes later.

It was the England captain's 11th World Cup goal - taking him one ahead of Gary Lineker.

England were below-par for long periods and once more looked vulnerable at the back, suffering another injury blow when emergency right-back Jarell Quansah, deputising for the injured Reece James, was forced off in the second half.

Bellingham was England's outstanding driving force, making the breakthrough when he turned in a clever finish from Bukayo Saka's corner.

He then turned creator with a perfect cross for Kane to rewrite England's history books again with a routine finish, his 82nd goal in 117 appearances.

As England closed out the win, which means they will face DR Congo in the last 32 in Atlanta, Jordan Henderson came on as substitute to become the first player to represent his country at four World Cups.

So there you have it.

England are through, but with a few concerns over form and fitness.

And Scotland are out - the wait for a place in the knockout rounds of a major tournament goes on.

We want to hear from both England and Scotland fans on the World Cup group stage and what comes next for both teams.
