Cool pics Petra! I've never seen a game of waterpolo but seems fun.

[Barcaman]

Well done to our boys and coach Rudic. I wasn't really following much of the tournament but it seems we won it much easier than expected.

 

[M.L. King]

Congratulations Bojan and Petra; Croatia was great throughout the whole tournament and the win in the semi-finals rendered you the worthy victors.

 

[Petrinha]

Tnx Am so so happy as was held here in Zagreb so gives u a special feeling especially with amazing fans making footie atmosphere at the pool, really enjoyed it.

Yeah, it seams like we won it so easily ... i still remember the old times and big games vs Italy or Spain in semis or finals once upon a time, especially at the Olimpics in the 90's ... but we must also know that we, traditionally, have great clubs which r successful in the Euroleague and that most of our players play together so therefore the success
