At the end of the first half, Spain managed to equalize Spain with a great combination and went on vacation with a 2-2 score. The second half opens Croatia great. Already in the first minute of the sequel, Pasko Culjak puts the ball into the net for 3-2, and the final result is achieved by Kovacevic.
– There are three points from this match. I do not think that the opponent was as good as we did the problems ourselves because we did not enter the match right. I hope the guys realized that for any relaxation they would happen to receive two goals at halftime, that this is a school and that we will be better – said coach Dino Kovac after the game.
Croatia plays the next game on Thursday at 3 pm Croatian time and the opponent will be Latvia. Croatia won bronze last year at the SP in Oman.
