Croatia defender Dejan Lovren said on Tuesday that a chance to advance to the final of the World Cup could be a once in a lifetime opportunity for a football player.
“We know what we need to succeed. In moments like this you forget fatigue, no matter how strong it is. Such a thing [a chance to play in the final] may only happen once in a lifetime,” Lovren told journalists.
The 29-year-old Liverpool player added that he had not been following the inner workings of the England team but knows that they have many strong players, including [forward Harry] Kane, who is a “dangerous opponent,” and that he expects the game to be “very interesting and intriguing.”
The England-Croatia match is set to kick off at 21:00 Moscow time at Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium on Wednesday.
The 2018 FIFA World Cup got underway on 14 June and will come to a close on Sunday.
