Croatian stars cite englands alleged disrespect as motivation for semi final victory

I think there may be some misinformation here!

The Croatian national team did indeed defeat England in the semi-finals of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, winning 2-1 in extra time. However, I'm not aware of any credible sources suggesting that Croatian players cited "England's alleged disrespect" as motivation for their victory.

It's possible that you may be thinking of a specific quote or interview from a Croatian player, but without further context or evidence, it's difficult to verify this claim.

That being said, the Croatian team did face a lot of pressure and expectation going into the match, and they were considered underdogs against a strong English team. The victory was a major upset and a historic moment for Croatian football.

If you have any specific quotes or sources that you'd like to share, I'd be happy to help clarify things!
