Croatia came into Wednesday's World Cup semi-final against England having trailed for just 11 minutes in the tournament. Kieran Trippier added to that, and quickly.
The right-back, who has been excellent in Russia, gave the Three Lions a 1-0 lead over Luka Modric and Co. in the fifth minute of the contest in Moscow, curling home a lovely free-kick that floated over the wall and beyond Danijel Subasic.
Maybe it really is coming home?
