DOHA — “We have to recover our energy and try to win the final for third place, which is not a punishment, because matches in the shirt of Croatia I’m never a punishment and why with third place our Worldwhich was already excellent, would become a success”. Those of the former Ballon d’Or seem like honeyed words Luca Modric who revealed the wish made to Leo Messi on the field (“I told him that I wish him to win the cup, because he is the best in history and he deserves it“), instead the poison is in the tail and it’s all for the referee, the Italian Daniel Orsato: “We were controlling the match well, when the key episode came. There was a corner for us, which the referee didn’t give, and on the next play there was a penalty, which was absolutely not , because it was Alvarez who sought contact with our goalkeeper Livakovic and not vice versa. I wonder how such a penalty can be called. However, it has now happened and we can’t do anything about it anymore. Usually I don’t talk about the referees, but today it is impossible not to do it. It’s one of the worst I know and I haven’t said it since today, it’s a disaster. Despite this, congratulations Argentina“.
