Croatia takes note of Canada coach John Herdman’s post-game comment at World Cup

DOHA, Qatar — An emotional John Herdman has apparently given Croatia some bulletin-board material ahead of its World Cup showdown with Canada on Sunday.
Immediately after Wednesday’s 1-0 loss to second-ranked Belgium — a game that saw No. 41 Canada dominate play but fail to score — Herdman shared what he told his players in the post-game huddle on the field.
“I told them they belong here and we’re going to go and eff— Croatia,” he said with a smile
