Zvonimir Boban is one of the greatest footballers in the history of Croatia. He was a true leader on and off the pitch and is part of the unforgettable generation that won the bronze medal in France in 1998, and today holds senior positions in UEFA,
Luka Modric is also among the footballers, if not the greatest footballer Croatia has had and today he will surpass Zvon Boban in the number of matches with the captain’s armband.
Until now they were tied on 48 appearances, but with the appearance against the Danes in Maksimir at 20:45, Luka will take second place on that prestigious list.
Darijo Srna is still the first and it seems that he will stay in that position for a long time. He finished his career with the national team in 2016 in the European championship, as he played in 68 appearances as captain from a total of 134 matches for the Croats.
