I agree, in the second half, when it was a little less hot, Croatia was much better and could have won with a much bigger goal difference.
However, in the first half, Saudi Arabia was much better and if they had scored the first goal, the question is how this match would have ended.
The Croatian defense made several huge mistakes in the first half, and it's really lucky that the players of Saudi Arabia didn't take advantage of that and scored a goal in the first half.
I hope that the Croatian players will get used to the high heat by the time the World Cup starts and that they will play better.

Portugal has been in crisis for a long time and is playing badly.
In the qualifiers for the World Cup, they lost at home to Serbia and took only second place in their group, so they had to play additional qualifiers.
Ronaldo also played in all those matches for Portugal, but he did not really help the Portuguese team.
Honestly, I think his time has passed and Portugal would be better off playing without him. Manchester United started playing much better when they got rid of Ronaldo.
Argentina is currently a much more complete and better team than Portugal, and Messi plays much better than Ronaldo, so they have a much better chance of a good result at this World Cup.
Senegal with Mane and without him are two completely different teams. I'm sorry that such a good player misses the World Cup due to injury.

As expected, after Rijeka's disastrous defeat against Dinamo, 7:2, Rijeka's coach was fired.
It seems to me that this is Rijeka's biggest home defeat in history.
The long-standing wrong club policy and the large sale of players after each season led to this disaster.
Once a big club that always fought for titles in the Croatian league and in Europe often participated in the group stages of European competitions, now it is fighting for survival in the Croatian league.
It's a shame how the club's management destroyed this club with wrong decisions and the president of Miskovic should be the first to leave because he is the most responsible for the current state of the club, not the former coach.

Croatia played a friendly match against Saudi Arabia yesterday and won but very hard, only 1:0.
In fact, it could be said that Saudi Arabia lost undeservedly, and they even had a chance to win.
After the match, all the Croatian players and the coach complained about the very difficult weather and high heat, which made it very difficult for them to play.
It seems to me that the difficult weather conditions in Qatar will be a major aggravating factor, especially for European teams that are not used to such harsh weather conditions.
These weather conditions will surely suit the African teams a lot more and maybe because of this the African teams will have more success in this world cup.

It was a very difficult game for Croatia and a very hard-fought victory, 1:0 for Croatia.
It could even be said that Saudi Arabia lost undeservedly and they were even close to victory.
After the match, almost all Croatian players and the coach talked about the very difficult conditions for the game and the high heat, which made it very difficult for the players to play.
It seems to me that this is another indication that it will be very difficult for the European teams to play in the World Cup, because they are not used to such difficult weather conditions.
Because of this, we might see some unexpected results at the World Cup.

Pa gdje si ovcijisir kućo stara, dugo te već nema na forumu?
Drago mi je da si se vratio i zahvaljujem na korisnoj informaciji koja će vjerojatno pomoći nekim članovima.
Jesi li zaradio koji dodatni token sa Cardanom?
Nadam se da ćemo te sada viđati malo češće na našem lokalu.

Did anyone watch the match between Hajduk and Slaven Belupo yesterday?
Again we saw a lot of things that have nothing to do with football and it turned out that Hajduk fans are probably the craziest in the country.
However, this match also showed what is the difference between Dinamo and Hajduk and why Dinamo will be champion again without any problems, and why Hajduk is far from that goal.
Dinamo has a lot of quality players in the team, and based on their great individual quality, Dinamo often wins matches in which they play worse than their opponents.
On the other hand, Hajduk does not have many quality players in the team and depends too much on one player, Livaja.
Because of this, it often happens that when Hajduk is close to victory, they don't know how to end the match and are left without important points.

I agree with you. Croatia usually plays best against the strongest national teams, but often fails against weaker teams.
In this year's League of Nations, they lost the first match at home to Austria, then they beat against France and Denmark away from home and finally won the first place in the group.
The last qualifiers for the European Championship also began with an unexpected defeat by Slovenia.
With that in mind, obviously you shouldn't worry too much about how Croatia will play against Belgium, but you should worry about how they will play against Morocco and Canada 

This break in the competition should help some teams to better prepare for the continuation of the season and increase the chances of a better result.
I'm thinking of Liverpool in particular, who usually start the season worse, but in the second part of the season they play much better and achieve much better results.
If they were to play their match against Real now, they wouldn't have much of a chance, but I'm sure that in the spring they will be much better and more ready for the match with Real.
In any case, a very uncertain and exciting competition awaits us, and we still do not know in what condition the players will return from the world cup.

In fact, there is a tendency to underestimate Croatia at every major competition.
The bookmakers never gave Croatia a chance for a big result, neither at the 1998 World Cup when we were third in the world, nor in 2018 when we were second in the world, nor in this year's League of Nations when we won first place in the group ahead of France and Denmark.
The biggest chances are always given to big football nations, and small football nations like Uruguay, Serbia, Croatia etc. are underestimated.
Regardless of the bookmakers' predictions, I am sure that there will be a lot of unexpected results and surprises at this world cup.

Slažem se, ali većina ljudi jedva da razumije kako kripto funkcionira i kako otvoriti wallet.
Oni su negdje čuli da se na kriptu može zaraditi neka velika lova, ulože sve što imaju, kripto malo poraste a onda dođe veliki potop, sve kriptovalute padnu i naravno onda krene spika kako je sve to velika prevara, nikada više neću ulagati u kripto, kako sam se dao nagovoriti na tu glupost...
Oni koji prođu tu inicijalnu fazu i potrude se detaljno informirati, analizirati kripto tržište, prihvate inicijalni gubitak i nastave dalje s vremenom će postati ozbiljni kripto ulagači i početi zarađivati.
Ali realno, nije kripto za svakoga.
I u pravu si, ne možeš zaštititi ljude od njih samih, od ljudske gluposti i vjere da ćeš negdje uložiti neku lovu, ne raditi ništa i da će se kao magijom ta lova oploditi i za par mjeseci ćeš postati bogataš  

Bravo slackovicu, bilo je i vrijeme da nas poslušaš i konačno svoj veliki talenat počneš pokazivati i u gambling sekciji 
Baš sam mislio da bi ti ova kampanja mogla biti ''po mjeri'', a i naš omiljeni manager pažljivo selektira kandidate i bira one najbolje, a nekad će i malo pričekati ako odmah ne nađe prave kandidate.
Drago mi je da si me poslušao i javio se.
A ne brini se za pisanje u gamblingu, vidim da tvoja tema o hrvatskoj nogometnoj ligi postaje sve aktivnija 
Uvijek možeš otvoriti neku novu temu, domaću rukometnu ligu, košarkašku...

Ne samo Index, sada je FTX saga postala tema čak i na središnjem dnevniku Nove TV 
I tamo se spominje potop kriptovaluta, pustili su snimke neke američke službenice da kriptovalute treba puno strože regulirati, a priliku da kaže što misli dobio je i nama dobro poznati Nikola Škorić iz Electrocoin-a.
On je naravno protiv strože regulacije jer kaže da stroža regulacija burzi u Americi ipak nije mogla spriječiti velike investicijske prevare poput slučaja Bernarda Madoffa ili Lehman Brothers i zato predlaže daljnju decentralizaciju.
Naravno, zaključak voditelja dnevnika je da sve to ipak treba bolje regulirati i zaštititi obične, neinformirane korisnike 

The Champions League is a very uncertain competition and surprises always happen and some clubs unexpectedly reach the semi-finals or quarter-finals of the competition, like Villarreal last season.
This season, there are many more surprises and even Barcelona, Juventus, Atletico did not make it to the knockout phase of the competition.
If the match between Real and Liverpool was played now, Real would definitely have the advantage, but I think that this break in all competitions due to the world cup could help Liverpool.
We don't know in what condition the players will return from the World Cup, and Liverpool was much better in the second half of the season last season as well.

I agree with you. The World Cup is being held for the first time at this time, in the middle of club seasons, and it will be a great challenge for all national teams.
Most national teams will come to the World Cup without many opportunities to play friendly matches, and because of this, the coaches will not know the state of their teams until they play their first matches.
That's why I expect a lot of surprises in the first matches of the World Cup, but later it will be easier for all national teams, when they get used to the environment and play more matches.
Qatar is really a big unknown at this world championship, but it would still be a big surprise if they make it to the knockout stage of the world cup.

The saddest thing in the whole story is that the coach is the least guilty and will be fired because of the mistakes of others, first of all the owner of the club Miskovic.
Miskovic never had a long-term vision for Rijeka, but every year he did a big sale of players and every season Rijeka entered with a lot of new players.
It is always a very risky transfer policy because you never know what the new players will be like and whether they will show the necessary quality.
Former coach Kek was very good at creating a strong and good team from a lot of new players every new season, but in the long run that strategy was doomed and that's exactly what is happening in Rijeka now.
In my opinion, the current coach is doing a very good job, the best he can with what he currently has, and the one who should be replaced is actually the owner of the club, Miskovic. 

When you look at his statistics, a big drop in his game, especially in the number of goals scored, this season is obvious.
The last season was not very successful for him either.
He was not even among the top 10 footballers in the selection for the footballer of the year, which says a lot about the quality of his play lately.
His time has definitely passed and it is questionable how much he can help Portugal at the World Cup.
In the qualifiers for the World Cup, Portugal was only second in the group, behind Serbia, and had to play additional qualifiers, and Ronaldo was very bad in those matches.

I agree that France, by names, has very strong team, but they have not been playing at the top level for a long time, as they played in the World Cup in Russia when they were world champions.
At the European Championship, they were very bad and were relegated too early, and at the last competition of the League of Nations, they were very bad and almost relegated to the lower division of the competition.
These are not very encouraging results before this world cup, but it is about an experienced and high-quality national team that knows how to play for the result and win in difficult matches.
However, for me, France is not the main favorite of this world cup.
