Croatia's head coach Zlatko Dalic shared his thoughts on joining the Spanish national team in the 1/8 finals of the European Championship 2020.

" It would have been easier against the Swedish national team, but what can you do now The Spaniards have demonstrated a high level of play. They have a young, fast, energetic team.

Football in her performance begins with pressure on the other side of the field and is based on a combination game with a large number of passes.. You need to prepare well. But we also have our trump cards - it will not be easy for them either..

A very energy consuming match is coming. We have something to oppose. We demonstrated this in our second face-to-face meeting in the League of Nations, but now they have a different team. You need to be careful when pressing them, not to lose the ball. And, of course, it will be difficult if you only play defensively.. It will be necessary to attack.

Our fans mean a lot to us - it is important to feel their presence and support. I know that there will be many Croatian fans, and they will help us beat the Spanish national team, "

Earlier, the coach of the Croatian national team commented on the success of his team in the game against Scotland.
