Croatia coach Zlatko Dalic shared his opinion before the upcoming match with Albania from group "B" at Euro 2024, not forgetting to pick on England, Topsport reported.
He emphasized the fact that the "three lions" are the most expensive team, but in the last 58 years they have only one medal from a major championship, while the Croatians have three.
"Bronze, silver, silver. I only miss the gold. It's not easy to win it and it's not easy to reach the final. "England has the most expensive team in the world, but in the last 58 years they have won one medal and Croatia - three," Dalic began.
I'm glad to see a positive mood in the team. The last match did not discourage Croatia and the players are aware that they have to perform better, he continued.
"We must not lose our focus. Croatia wants to perform well and achieve the goal through quality. The approach must be adequate from the first minute".
"How important is hierarchy? We have achieved everything thanks to her. Quality is primary, and respect and hierarchy are secondary. We are flawless here."
"Albania is not like Spain, but it deserves respect. He is motivated, he is good and we have to be patient and careful. We know our goal is to win. We will be more attacking, more assertive, better and more aggressive. There will be some changes in the composition", concluded the selector of the "chess players".
