Croatia is a great team with a very intelligent coach. They have a 10-2 tecord on this cycle. Those 2 defeats were on bot formation games... One against UK to avoid "scouts" of other teams. And the other one against Finland to avoid playing a group B team.

Things are going to get serious tomorrow.



I know for a fact that bot offence formation game against the UK was not to avoid anything. He had an injury, as he told me.

Thanks for the congratulations, indeed I had an injured player against the UK and didn't realize it as I had quite a busy period back then.

However, I realized the win against Finland would mean playing against Germany, which in my humble opinion is the strongest team in the GI world with one of the best if not the best manager. He is very experienced and knows his team inside out. What I like about him is that he keeps it simple and it is often the best solution.
Croatia played against Germany on several occasions and lost every single time, not even coming close.
We had somewhat better run against France, those were all close games as was the one today. Croatia was simply luckier today.

I am very happy with the semis and looking forward to playing two more games.

Thank you! I can only give back the compliments. I have a lot of respect for managers from smaller NTs who manage to have great success. You're to name there (it seems like Croatia is always qualified for the World Cup, now the Semis), but also a coach like jkiller for the Slovakian NT the last few seasons.

When you manage Germany (or the US, I think Shankster would agree), you have a good talent pool. To win big with rosters like Croatia or Slovakia have, that takes a lot of great decisions and knowledge.

Let's just hope that there won't be any key injuries on Friday due to the delay of the Semifinals to tomorrow and the Final/3rd place being played on Friday. Would be a shame if one team suffers only because of the delay. And I'm not only talking about Germany, I'm talking about any of the four teams left. Nobody should have an disadvantage because of that.

It will be Germany against Croatia in the Final. Germanys TE-Darkwing Attack against Andjelković worked to perfection. The 4 INTs the Defense forced sure helped (altough Germany did give the ball back three times). Great performance by the team. Unlike in the game against Finland, the result should have been even higher than 49:63.

GREAT performance by Croatia. I know first hand, from our game in the group, how incredibly tough to beat this US Team is. Croatia kept them at 31 points. I know that Germany is the favorite on paper, but it will be a very tough challenge to beat this team. I'm looking forward to analyse and gameplan against you, Hedda. May the best team win tomorrow.

Wow this CROATIA team is really impressive, nice to see "new" team to become part of major ones in the GRID game, really good job Hedda for this! You will get the first NT reward and what a reward!

Will be a tough game and hope to see lot of TDs
For his incredible series of wins and the way he handle this competition to go to the final, will support CROATIA for this one but again a pretty nice final
Good luck for both of you
