Croatia lost a key victory against Albania which left them close to the next round, but Klaus Gjasula’s goal at 90+5 shook Group B of the Euro Cup and placed the ‘Chesses’ at the bottom, who must beat Italy to have a chance of advancing to the round of 16 .
Croatia had its future complicated after a defeat and a draw and is facing the lamps, now it has to take out the calculator to do the math and the rosary to appeal to a miracle, because just as it can reach the next round it could also be eliminated .
Defeating Italy on the last day of the group stage is an obligation and at the same time they must hope that Spain does not lose to Albania, with four points they would have a chance to qualify for the round of 16 as one of the best third places.
The Spanish National Team and the Italian National Team will face each other this Thursday and Croatia will be waiting for the result, a tie would place the four teams with four points and the goal difference would be the tie-breaking criterion.
The Balkan team fell 3-0 against the ‘Red Fury’ and conceded two goals against Albania. They have a difference of -3 to -1 on the Albanian team, so defeating the ‘Azzurri’ would not be enough and they would have to score a goal.
