Again Croatian supporters from all over the world, including Croatia, Germany, the UK, America, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Switzerland, Austria and South Africa are in Nizhny Novgorod and the atmosphere is slowly building around the city with songs echoing from cafes in town.
A number of Croatian fans have made the long trek from the other side of the world.
