The chances of the Croats get a blow due to the lack of Perisic. The Inter player has scored twice in this European Championship so far and has accounted for half of all Croatia’s goals in this tournament. So now there is even more pressure on Luka Modric’s shoulders to take his team in tow.
Croatia will play against Spain in Copenhagen on Monday. “We have informed the competent authorities about the situation,” it said in the statement from the Croatian federation. All other team members delivered a negative test.
