Siroki Brijeg's midfielder Domagoj Marusic expects a victory in the second round of the UEFA European Under-17 Championship:

"That hard defeat by Germany is behind us, and now we're focused on the match with Ireland. If we play well I know we can beat them. We had some good results in qualifiers and we want to continue like that.

We watched others teams' games in the preparation period, we know what awaits us. Ireland has good players, and some of them are particularly dangerous on the left side and in front. However, we can definitely counter them and win. If we succeed in that, the match with Serbia will be decisive for the quarter-finals. I believe we're going to be ready for both of them."
