Coach Vinko Marinović shared his expectations ahead of the game, emphasizing that all players are ready for the challenge: "We’re facing another tough match against a strong French team that always plays at the highest level and sets high standards. I expect this challenge will require maximum concentration and commitment from us. Our young players will gain invaluable experience playing against such an opponent, which will be beneficial not only in this match but also in their future careers, especially in the upcoming qualifying cycles.
We have many talented players from the 2005 and 2007 generations who have already shown exceptional qualities in training sessions and previous duels. I believe this match will be an important step in their development, allowing them to face one of Europe’s strongest players and learn firsthand what it takes to play at the top level. This game is an opportunity to strengthen our team spirit, improve our play, and lay solid foundations for the future."
