It doesn't have to be just one golden generation..

[@NihilSineDeo09]

Having watched Croatia in both 1998 and 2018 I would say that the 98 side was more talented, but the 18 gen was more physically fit. A lot of the game's evolution in the last 2 decades has to do with the physical training (speed and endurance). If Suker's side had the training programs that Modric & Co. enjoyed, they would have been champions in both 1996 and 1998.

[@powderskier5547]

I cant believe that this Croatian team never won a Euro or a world cup. I know they came close but my Jesus, this Croatian team is one of the best ever football teams I have ever seen. As for Davor Suker, yes he is for me in my top 5 best ever football players of all time

[@thomaskelly3474]

This tournament was the peak of the original Vatreni in terms of the quality of the football they played. Came through qualifying on top in a group with Baggio's Italy, put on this brilliant second half and were unlucky/stupid in the quarter-final against the Germans. The eternal question remains what would've happened had the coach Blazevic decided to play for top spot in the last group game against Portugal. I'd love to have seen the reaction of fans and the football public had a coach of England, Italy, Germany etc. made such a huge mistake. He copped heat for it in Croatia but still kept his job. Two years later the team had a great run at the WC but did so without playing too great. Blazevic made some changes, by the end of the group stage he dropped Prosinecki again, giving the midfield more balance and being prepared to outfox teams rather than try to play them off the park. Real pity we never got to see Boksic (apart from 45 minutes in the opener at Euro 96) in this team at a major tourney. He didn't play his best for Croatia but he could've been the difference in some big games. The Modric generation similarly played its best football before the WC final run in 2018. For a lot of people the performance in the group stage at Euro 2016 was the best football ever played by a Croatian national team. Unfortunately, they ran into Portugal in the second round where Santos was simply too smart for Croatia's non-league standard coach Cacic. They just killed the game, pressed Modric and Rakitic high, isolated Perisic and the Croatian coach sat there and watched it all unfold. From memory his first change came with 2-3 minutes to go in the 90. Under Dalic at Russia things finally came together, Rakitic was played deep and Modric pushed up into an attacking midfield role. Brozovic was played in a position that most suited him and these changes were key. The rest was a bit of luck and an unbelievable spirit within the team. Comparing the two teams I still favour the 1996-98 team. I think it was more well-rounded. Modric the best individual from both generations but generally there was more quality in the team in 1996-98 with Suker, Boban, Asanovic, Prosinecki, Jarni, Stanic, Bilic... The original Vatreni were a genuine mix of the old Hajduk Split and Dinamo Zagreb schools. The more refined Dinamo style (Suker, Boban, Prosinecki) combined with the more robust, direct, physical-type produced by Hajduk (Boksic, Jarni, Asanovic, the whole defence). The 2018 generation was very much a product of Dinamo's school with the odd standout coming from elsewhere.

[@robertofrega3158]

Davor Suker wonderful!

[@user-gr6ms3it9s]

スーケル凄いわ

[@fegasd]

Šuker je tada bio među top 5 napadača... najjača lijeva noga na planeti.

[@titdemidenko7496]

just great master Davor Suker!

Generacija 1996-1998...Šuker,Boban,Prosinečki,Jarni,Bokšić...I don't forever this team. Go Croatia🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷 31.10.2019.

Croatia having a white away kit seems pretty pointless. I've also just realised that Denmark were defending Euro champions!

@Tom_ Santo_zgd but WASChamp

[@Kyrichenko]

@Tom Santo zgd It came in place for a reason, they where "best of losers" but they grabed their given oportunity and won. Yugoslavia had good team (as usual) but i doubt they could be champions ... Balkan mentality is like ... well ... Balkan itself - explosive 💣

[@bayridge3569]

@@Kyrichenko Balkan very explosive, eating too much beans (PASULJ), cabbage and bacon creates overwhelming combustion, light up one little match and everything goes u 3 PM

[@Kyrichenko]

@Johnny Hash There's alot of great players in serbia and bosnia, Oblak from slovenia would be no 1

[@Kyrichenko]

@Johnny Hash In the end yeah, but in 60's twice 2nd on euro and once 4th in world... They were on fire. Then 70's were bad and after Tito died, Yugoslavia died also.

[@gezzarandom]

Not sure who was faster that summer, Schmiechel sprinting back to.his goal, or Michael Johnson in Atlanta. Lol

[@praveenjohn9098]

That was an awesome summer anyway😊

[@askfskpsk]

Suker is still my favorite striker :)

[@jmatches01]

Kakvi su naši tehničari bili. Pravi studenti i kohezivnost u igri. Profesionalni.

[@torstensandvei4973]

I remember Croatia outplayed us, but watching the highlights again... Oh dear, oh dear. That Croatia team was world class in Euro 96 and Denmark were in very poor shape

[@tonyjeliccflstudiehandledn7348]

Only one player was missing. The classical left-winger and attacker.That would be nr 11, Alen Boksic. The one and only. Totally overall-skilled. Find him a match nowadays;)

Šteta za 82'. Tad je Jugoslavija mogla komotno osvojiti turnir. Uvijek mi je bilo čudno da Miljanić nije zvao Kranjčara i Mlinarića - prvake s Dinamom. Da se nije raspala uzeli bi ''čileanci' Euro 96' i WC 98' pod uvjetom selekcije odrađene po formi i statusu igrača neovisno o nacionalnosti. Pozdrav iz Pule i sretno u Katru!

Davor Šuker..... one and only... however, beating the European champions 3-0 was a clear sign that Croatia had one very talented team.
