Croatia at Euro 2024 was placed in the “group of death”.

Before the match of the first round of Euro 2024 between Croatia and Spain, head coach of the Checkers Zlatko Dalich spoke with journalists. Please visit the official UEFA website.

" A good start is of utmost importance. Do you remember the World Cup in Qatar, since we played against Morocco right away Scoring that point was even more important for us. We do not aim at anything. I want to show myself at my best and overcome.

We are not afraid of anyone and we are going for victory. It will be easy and you will see a lot from us, but, as always, I believe in our team.

Those that Croatia is asking for, miraculously. I would say that this is impossible. Why is the axis less turbulent if people underestimate us?.

This Croatian team needs to be respected for what they achieved in such clever minds and with such a small stock of gravitationalists.

We compete with the strongest competitors in world football. For these reasons, it is proof that a small country can achieve a lot. It’s our responsibility to show others what’s possible,” Dalich said..

The match between Spain and Croatia will take place today, at 19:00 Kyiv time.

Guess what, Croatia is selected for Euro 2024 from Group B, together with Spain, Italy and Albania.
