LYON, July 5 (Hina) - The victory in Lyon means a lot for the
confidence of the Croatian people, for the Homeland and
indisputably adds to the Croatian reputation in Europe and the
world, Croatian President Franjo Tudjman said in Lyon on Saturday.
Tudjman attended Saturday night's World Cup Soccer quarter-final
match between Croatia and Germany in Lyon.
Croatia won with a result of 3:0.
In an interview for the Croatian Television, Tudjman congratulated
all the players for this historic victory.
It is good being triumphant, and because we won in the creation of
the independent Croatia, because we were the victors of the
Homeland War they attacked us, and now they will be more cautious
towards us on the sports field also, Tudjman said, pledging he would
attend the World Cup Soccer finals.
