“I think England showed already at the World Cup. They, I think, exceeded expectations. They have a really young and very fast team, which is very important in modern football.“I’d like to congratulate England on a deserved win and for qualifying for the final four of the Nations League.”Croatia looked dead on their feet at Wembley, with Dalic going on to say he felt the dramatic win over Spain earlier in the week affected his players.It was very difficult for us to recover after the match against Spain. We don’t have such a big squad,” he said. “In the last 15 minutes we lost concentration, which could be down to our condition physically.“We can only be proud of everything we’ve achieved this year. We are a small country and don’t have a great infrastructure yet we achieved a great result. We are second in the world and our players have to be proud.“We didn’t play very well in the first half. We were lucky to get into half-time at 0-0. In the second half we played better and had a few chances after scoring but we conceded from two set-pieces. Set-pieces are part of the game so it’s a fair result in the end.”
