Lovren jokingly taunts Salah by saying Croatia wasn’t ‘lucky’

Lovren responds to his friend Mohamed Salah jibing him about Croatia being lucky.

Dejan Lovren thinks that Croatia was definitely not “lucky” in the 2018 World Cup when they got to the final as they once again are getting into the final stages of yet another World Cup. Lovren was earlier teased by his friend Mohamed Salah that they were indeed lucky in the 2018 World Cup.

"How? Why? Maybe it is written in the stars that

Croatia

need to go like this,"

Lovren said.

"We need to suffer. Without suffering, there is no reward.

"We showed to the world we are in the best eight of the world, that 2018 didn't happen just luckily.

"Especially my friend

Salah

said to me, 'penalties, penalties'. I said, 'okay, let me show you'. It's great that we showed to the world that we are really strong."

Lovren continued by talking about Livakovic’s outstanding display against Japan and Croatia’s preparedness when it comes to penalties:

"In the training session, we practised the penalties and he saved almost all penalties.

"We said to ourselves, 'wow, we are really bad at shooting'. I said to him, 'just be that'. He showed that today.

"Penalties are a lottery, but to be honest I was a little bit more calm today, because yesterday he really showed his quality in the training when he saved almost all penalties. Fantastic."

Lovren

and co. are set to meet Brazil on December 9 at Education City Stadium.
