Marcelo Brozović

[DiegoMilito22]

Marcelo Brozovic set up a new record in the match Croatia v Japan, in total distance covered in a single World Cup match - 16.70 km. The previous record was also set by Brozovic (16.33 km in the 2018 semi-final against England).

Would be impressed with the record if this was June but it's December so fuck off.

Doubt he’s playing more than 1 more game so at least he’ll get a few weeks

 

[crzdcolombian]

Bummed for Japan but it’s France vs Brazil final.

All the other teams should just forfeit so we can get back to club footy

That is if he doesnt pull a ham, otherwise, he will get a few months.

Grande Brozo. Two times World Cup semifinalist. How many of our players have had this achievement while playing for us? Only Ronaldo comes to mind.

Hope he is okay but doesn't play the game for third place

 

[NimAraya]

Was he injured? Didn't understand his sub.

 

[IM21]

he had a muscle problem.

 

[RickyMaravilla'sRightFoot]

Don’t like that his fitness is going downhill. Of course that’s not unusual given that he is aging and was pretty much never unavailable before, but still. Maybe we should look at reducing the amount of minutes he plays and letting some of the younger guys play there.

I hope Brozo realizes he is not 20 years old anymore who can get hangover and still tops the fitness test at the next morning. His injury rate increases alarmingly and if he doesn't fix his lifestyle and learns to take care his 30 years old body, he can go down on Nainggolan's path.

 

[Helenio Herrera]

Apparently he was feeling kind of injured and Dalic thought he should be perhaps rested so that he may be nursed back to health for the third place playoff match.

 

[IM21]

sky saying he will have new tests done today

they better not play him in the next game if he has muscle problems. Would be just perfect if he comes back to Inter injured.

CROATIA COACH CONFIRMS INTER’S BROZOVIC HAD INJURY

Croatia coach Zlatko Dalic confirms Marcelo Brozovic was taken off during the World Cup semi-final against Argentina because the Inter midfielder ‘felt a muscular twinge.’

The substitution was a surprise, especially as it occurred just five minutes into the second half.

His team had just completed two more substitutions during the half-time break, so using up a slot after five minutes seemed very odd.

“Marcelo felt a twinge in his muscle and so we decided not to use him to the end,” coach Dalic told HRT.

“We opted to conserve him to get him fit for the third place final.”

Squeezing EpicBrozo to the max

EDIT: According to Sky Sport Italia, tests performed today showed that there is nothing serious and Brozovic should be fit to play the third-place Final on Sunday against either France or Morocco.

They say he doesn't have anything serious.

Brozo ran so much already this World Cup that he ran the most kilometers of all players and he didn't even play the last game. Let him have his rest yo

All he needs is some beer and salame and he’ll be good to go in no time.

Eh? Meazza was two times World Cup winner. Bergomi won one (1982) and was captain 1990 (3rd). I'm sure there are some others.



The forum is pretty nice to Brozo: This guy played 45 minutes for Inter in the last two months and in the WC he turns into the Duracell bunny.

 

[crzdcolombian]

He been our best player since he been here…. So nothing but love for the guy

But if a nice offer comes in for him we need to consider it
