The central Croatian town of Bjelovar is preparing to welcome Luka Modrić, Ivan Rakitić, Ivan Perišić and the rest of the Croatian team for the first time tomorrow.
Croatia will take on NK Bjelovar to mark the club’s 110th anniversary on Tuesday 9 October at 4 pm and on Monday a huge 100 metre-long Croatian supporters’ flag was unveiled in the town’s centre. The flag was the same flag which followed the Croatian team at the World Cup in Russia.
