The head coach of the Croatian national team Zlatko Dalić shared his emotions after winning the match for third place in the 2022 World Cup against the national team of Morocco. The meeting ended with a score of 2-1 in favor of the Europeans.
It's a bronze with a golden cast. It was a tough match and it's a medal for all the Croatian people. Few people expected this result from us. We became bronze medalists in a competition of that scale, it's fantastic.
