Croatia winger Ivan Perisic has been named All Football World Cup Best Player of the Day.

Croatia will face France in their first World Cup final after coming from behind to dash England's dreams with a 2-1 extra-time victory at the Luzhniki Stadium.

Ivan Perisic scored a goal before assisting another to finish an epic comeback for his team and grab the final victory.

England took the lead through Kieran Trippier's wonderful 5th-minute free-kick but Ivan Perisic forced extra-time with Croatia's equaliser on 68 minutes.

The Inter winger shined again in the extra time as he delivered a headed pass to Mandzukic, who capitalised on a brief lapse in the English defence to seal the victory.
