ROTTERDAM : Croatia’s experience might prove key when they go up against a youthful Spain in Sunday’s Nations League final in the Netherlands, midfielder Ivan Perisic said on the eve of the game.

Yes, we do have more experience than they do, having been runners-up at the 2018 World Cup and then third in Qatar. “We have come close to a major title before, but I think that this is going to be third time lucky where first place is going to happen for us,” Perisic predicted.
