Croatia defeated France in penalties (17-16) Thursday night in Qatar in the semifinal round of the 2024 World Aquatic Championships. The win means the ‘Barracudas’ will now face Italy in the Gold Medal match on Saturday in Doha.
Croatia has won the water polo world championship on two occasions: 2007 and 2017. A win versus Italy would make it #3.
Great stuff. Always good to beat France or Spain in anything.
This is Awesome news. How can I watch the final in Canada ? Would really enjoy watching the game. Thanks in advance 🍻
HRT 2 is showing it. If you use a VPN, you can watch for free.
We were leading 9 – 6 at the end of the third quarter and I thought it was all over, however we were poor in the last quarter losing it 5 – 2 and it went to the penalties. Luck was on our side as was the fact that Italy beat Spain in the other semi final. Spain has the wood on us, so it is good that we play Italy. Tough match ahead but we have a better chance of winning than if the final was against Spain.
