"We do not care who is on the other side of the pitch, we've come here to enjoy the moment and to give our maximum best. This is the time which we fought for and which we deserve. We want the whole world to watch Croatia play and we want most of the world to root for us," Dalic said.

Croatia, whose previous best result was their third place at the 1998 World Cup, beat England 2-1 on Wednesday and advanced to the final for the first time in their history.

Croatia will take on France in World Cup final at Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium on Sunday at 18:00 local time.
