Croatia qualified for the semifinals of the World Cup after defeating the Russian National Team 4-3 on penalties. The result was 2-2 at the end of the official 90 minutes and the subsequent extra time led to the penalty shootouts. Previously, Domagoj Vida scored the temporary 2-1 in favor of the Croats in the 100th minute.

Vida, center-back, spoke after the match about how the team has reached the semifinals after their last two matches. It is worth remembering that Croatia also defeated Denmark in the round of 16 through penalty shootouts.

"It seems like we will never have things easy, but we have come back when it seemed impossible"

Furthermore, he expressed the happiness that the team and especially the Croatian fans feel for the results achieved so far by the national team.

"We are very happy for the victory and above all because we have made the fans in the stadium and in our country happy"

To finish, he pointed out that for now "the important thing is to enjoy and rest" in order to "return to work tomorrow and prepare for the match against England".
