What They're Saying

Croatia head coach Niko Kovac (via UEFA): "It isn't easy to congratulate someone after a loss, but I have to tell my boys that they played excellently. I am now in difficult situation. We didn't expect such a nice story in London. I don't know what to do with the team for Italy. There are plenty of candidates now."

Croatia President of the football federation Davor Suker (via Football Italia): "The game against Italy won't be decisive. Three points will be up for grabs, and that's it. We expect a tough game, with Italy playing on the attack and a packed San Siro, so may the best [team] win! Balotelli might play and Italy are the favorites, but we're going to Milan with confidence, hoping to do well against the Azzurri, just like in 1994, when I scored two goals against them in Palermo."
