In their opening match of Group A3 in the UEFA Nations League, the Croatia national team secured a 2-1 away victory over the Czech Republic, with goals from Luka Modrić and Marko Pašalić.

The scorer of the winning goal, Pašalić, expressed his emotions about his decisive strike and praised the veteran leader of the “checkered” team.

“It’s an incredible feeling to come on as a substitute and help the team. I’m very happy for myself and for the entire squad. Tonight, I will definitely sleep peacefully.

Luka Modrić‘s opening goal was magnificent! I’m really glad for him. He proves that age is just a number. On the pitch, he still has the ability to decide matches and is a true legend,” said Pašalić.
