With the first step of their 2018 World Cup final revenge successfully taken, Croatia will look to finish the job against France in the second leg of their UEFA Nations League quarter-final on Sunday evening at the Stade de France.
Zlatko Dalic’s side hold a strong advantage after a well-earned 2-0 victory on Thursday, where France appeared far from the dominant force they once were when they lifted the World Cup in Russia. Croatia now have one foot in the semi-finals and will be determined to seal their spot with another resilient performance in Paris.
