kovacic croatia

More words from Inters young croatian midfielder Mateo Kovacic whose side beat Serbia in the qualifiers to the FIFA World cup in Brazil 2014.

“I was told that i was in the starting eleven only a few hours before the game. It surprised me, then i got nervous but the coach (Igor Stimac) came to me and said: ‘lad, u already know what do to’. Then i went on the field with some stage fright, but it all went perfectly in the end!”
