The report that appeared on Monday (16/7/2018) in this daily was interesting. The Croatian team, with its slogan “Mala Zemlja, Veliki Snovi” (Small Country, Big Dream), made it to the 2018 World Cup final through many hardships. It went through three “life or death” matches in the knockout stage, involving injury times and penalty shootouts. The team exuded a towering fighting spirit, much like the unending hope of living through another day on a battlefield. This reminded everyone of the fact that Croatians led harsh lives during their war for independence in 1991-1995.
