Croatia coach Slaven Bilic refused to single out Darijo Srna for praise after the 2-1 win over FYR Macedonia that put them firmly in charge of Euro 2008 Qualifying Group E.
Goce Sedloski, who would later be sent-off, scored the opener for the Macedonians in the first half but that was cancelled out shortly after the interval by Srna.
The midfielder then laid on the winner for Eduardo Da Silva late on to keep Croatia at the top of Group E.
In remarks reported by the www.vecernji.fr website, Bilic said: "(Milan) Rapaic, (Niko) Kranjcar and Srna are all of the same status."
The win means that Croatia are two points clear of Russia while England and Israel are five points off the pace.
