Kvartuć, Zorić and Christian from CroatianSports talk about Croatia’s dominating 7-0 performance vs. Gibraltar and 5-1 victory over Czechia to begin 2026 World Cup qualifying.
-who was the best Croatian player this cycle?
-Dalić finally playing everyone in their native positions
-does Croatia play more attractive football without Kovačić?
Thanks for the post guys, great discussion.
One thing with regards to the penalty discussion with regards to Budimir. If you look at it that way, then you wouldn’t be counting so many great seasons for other strikers either. For example, that year that Lewondowski shattered records in Bundesliga, I think he had 12-15 penalties of his 40 goal season. Does that now mean that Lewondowski doesn’t deserve the accolades from that season? I think he definitely deserves it regardless of the penalties, so why discount Budimir’s achievement here?
Since the majority of PKs go in, I’ve always wondered from a stats perspective if they should count full-on to one’s goals totals.
Also wondered if the sport should take a page from basketball (I’m not a huge basketball fan, but ….) and have the person who got fouled (or perhaps the person who kicked the ball last on a hand ball) take the PK.
New Hrvatska World Cup kits leaked?:

Why do the drawings look like priest vestments?
I do not like those kits at all if they are correct.
Addition via subtraction with Kova. Have you finally seen the light Mr Kvartuc?
So the reason HNS decided to play in Osijek yesterday was so that Modric and Moro could testify in court today in Osijek ?
