Ivana Knoll, a Croatian model known for her high-profile support of the national team, says Croatia are well placed for another successful World Cup and believes the squad’s togetherness will help. In comments reported by Daily Mail, she argues that England are overly confident and describes them as “arrogant.” She frames the upcoming match as one Croatia could approach as underdogs who still have the capability to perform well. The outlet also reports that some predictions in the Croatian media and among fans expect England to struggle in their World Cup opener. Knoll’s remarks focus on Croatia’s prospects and the perceived attitude of England, rather than providing detailed tactical analysis. Overall, the reporting centers on her public-facing views ahead of the tournament and the expectation among some observers that Croatia can challenge stronger-name opponents early in the competition.
