In an unexpected turn, Croatia managed to defeat the favorites, France, last night but found themselves in a challenging position today.

From the outset, it was clear that the success of the team, guided by coaches Miloš Perović and Bobana Krstović, was secured. By the 10th minute, the score was 5:1. Although Croatia narrowed the gap to one goal (5:4 by the 16th minute), the advantage ballooned again to a solid four-goal lead by halftime, concluding at 15:11.

The outcome became certain early in the second half, particularly when Jovana Tešović netted two consecutive goals, pushing the score to 19:12 in the 38th minute. The lead continued to expand, ending at a commanding differential of eleven goals.

Martina Knežević was the standout performer with eight goals, while Andrea Dragnić contributed five and was named player of the match.
