AMSTERDAM : Croatia could cap a superb season with success in this week’s Nations League finals against a trio of opponents looking to restore lost lustre at the end of a long campaign.

"It's a great achievement to be back in the final four," said Mancini."In the group we had good teams like Germany, England and Hungary. We're in the final stage and it's clear that we want to win, like the others, but it won't be easy."
