I was very emotional when Croatia made it to the finals..It was a special feeling, a feeling only a Croat would understand. Even though we lost against France, Croatia will never seem small again PS.. Lucy, you are not alone with your view of the world cup..
croatia lost the world cup but became the people' champion all over the world.i hope we will see them in the european cup of nation,and see them win it.
Lucy is awesome.That was the biggest game of our lives so far.We have give all,but get Nestor Pitanas incompetence.Heaven,at last,give a comment.Personally,im very proud, but also very bittered.They couldnt let us win,and when they started loosing ground under their feet,referee arived.Life goes on.Honest and humble croatian people and sportist are amazing. The future of our sport is bright.Greetings from Croatia.
My father was a very humble man in the early 60s he bought the first ball and helped to start the first Croatian football team in Sydney. He stayed very low key and followed Sydney croatia all his . I was honoured to watch the 2018 world cup final with him and follow the country he escaped from in the 50s ( Yugoslavia then ) as a 17 year old . He died in 2019 . I can relate to Lucy it's very emotional seeing croatia do so well
Hard not to tear up with Lucija, know the feeling exactly. I think the diaspora have a romantic view of Croatia and we see passed the actual problems. We view the country and people with 110% love and pride.
There is as much Croats around the world as is in Croatia, if not more. We are one of the biggest immigrant countries in the world and just by sheer percentage of Croatians living outside of Croatia we can easily compare Croatia to Ireland and Italy in that respect.
In the last 28 years since the war of independence Croatia has won a Silver medal in basketball against the MJ lead Dream team, two Davis Cups, produced the best female skier possibly of all time, won gold medals at Olympics and world championships in Waterpolo and Handball amongst many other individual achievements ie French Open, US Open and Wimbledon champs, best Discuss thrower in world , best tandem Rowers in the world, boxers , shooters, sailers, javelin throwers to name just a few. On top of this two podium finishes at the football World Cup. All from a country of 4.2 mill people’s. Talented is the word
fuck off! she's good at parroting what the ear piece says.. she doesn't seem to truly be knowledgeable about football. she is CRO so got emotional here, naturally. R.I.P Les Murray. He was SBS football.
I am still annoyed that Croatia didn't win the WC trophy. It was great to see us in the final but I wanted to fucking win. I wont be truly happy until we win the WC. Hrvatska can do it. We have so much quality it's ridiculous. Getting second place isn't good enough for me.
What they did was amazing. A country of 4 million, a war-torn country and only their fifth tournament. If they can do it, surely Australia can too in the future (what I mean is that both countries have similar resources, Australia actually have more but football isn't as big a sport so maybe evens out).
The Josh ummm, how old do you think most of these players are? It’s in their lifetime, in fact when they were young, which could impact government investment and a young footballers development.
The Josh Modrics grandpa was killed by Serbs while herding goats in the mountains where Luka used to help him, him and his family had to move to another city and live in a small hotel for years while little Luka played for the local club.
Croatia was war-torned in 1995 not in 2018 or 2020 lmfao. Yes some of these players expirienced war but only few of them the oldest ones such as Modric and Lovren but that is not definition of war-torn country that is maybe trauma on individual level lmfao. Syria is war-torn country at the moment haha
I love Lucy and what a great job she did covering the World Cup. She's a class act, who does her homework and treats every nation with respect. Those idiots who criticised her for pronouncing the players as they should be in their native tongue are bloody morons. Good on Craig for standing up for her and showed what a decent bloke he is, as well as a bloody good football analysist. They should be given a regular show covering all world football or the PL when it starts. The best thing Optus did for the World Cup was stuffing up the coverage to get these two stars to cover the games.
I'm French but Love Modric and remember fondly Zucker, missed the Diamond on their jerseys. But what a match 6 goals and Croatia kept attacking. I'm so glad France won for the second time. Personally I did not see any looser only those who whinge! I feel so glad Optus let SBS take over. But Craig, you do love the sound of your voice don't you? you gave us a lot of good stuff but I wished you'd stuck to it. At times I felt sorry for Lucy and even more for the extra guests. Then came the end, and you had to fish for compliments and turned it into a personal emotional affair as if the WC was about you'z' in the studio. For me it made a great coverage become cheap emotional day of our lives. I think you should have a good look at these 3 books you had on that table.
Great to see the best two teams make the final, but I feel Uruguay would have been there had Cavani stayed fit. Who let their nana don the ripped jeans?
From two pot shots and own goal and a penaltie. Compare the game I don't see why the French are excited, they did bad winning it. If anything I walked away like Croats did for almost 1400 years of bad luck. One thing I can say we are now free. Congrats to the Croats!
So Larry David, what YOU are saying is that: AFRICAN players are superior physically... BUT NOT MENTALLY? ONLY with the ASSISTANCE of WHITE MAN can they utilize tactical superiority? Conversely, FRANCE with NO AFRICANS could be tactically superior until the cows come home, but they COULD ONLY WIN A WORLD CUP, once they called on THE ASSISTANCE OF AFRICANS?
Yes Craig Forster is right about France , we had our time of playing beautiful football in the 80 s but we got only 1 euros as reward so yes i agree its not pretty the way we play now but it is effective, we had to beat Argentina, Uruguay and a great Belgium team to win that cup, so not to forget our euro lost to Portugal we ended up learning how to win , no matter how!!!
he actually helped her get back on track, if he didn't say anything she would have burst into tears. He helped her keep her composure... read the situation mate...
if it wasnt for Australia she wouldnt even be sitting there where she is i wonder if he heart hurt for the Socceroo's these Croatians truly are fanatical too say the least.
I don't give a shit what anyone says but croatia played so much better than france! For fuck sake france was handed the first 2 goals they didn't earn them! Well done croatia this will go down in history im just a proud croation! Bog blagoslovi!
i couldnt stop laughing at the end of the game when they started talking politics.. stick to the soccer guys and not your theories on how to make the world a better place
Black Angel I am from Sudan and I can tell u that these players dont represent us we have no connection it's like saying NBA players win for Africa, dont get lost by these butthurt fans and respect these French men 2 stars .
Funny, @winfeildblues curses and criticized "crno beli" but he himself can not communicate the conditional for the verb "to be". In fact, he should have said, "If I were you." "If I was you" is a dead ringer for someone who did not pay much attention in school.
Hey Fozz where"$ your France jersey? Thats not fair mate :D..allez les bleus..Shld have been Belgium vs France..England was poor..Anyways good luck to both teams..
Alex BG1 wonderful isn't it to see all those players working together and playing wonderfully. 'What a wonderful world' music.th-cam.com/video/CWzrABouyeE/w-d-xo.html
The world cup watching was marred by SBS choosing beauty over maturity; Mariana Rudan was elegant - no they chose Lucy who is getting irritating by the minute. Les Murray wanted to call people right but why did not anyone call him Laszlo - his proper name then? Craig Foster said foreign names not exactly with rolling rs and soft ts but he said them right so why do we have to listen to what Lucy thinks she should do and not the audience? Sure if I were to call a Spanish person I would call him or her how they are to be called but the SBS TV is NOT addressing each and every country - why not start then Rossiya, Muskva, Polska, Hrvatska, Espana etc! Where will it end? Plus which Australian calls it FUBBOL instead of Football? Then the 101 dress change and hair style- man I tell you was it tuning into soccer or fashion show! No wonder SBS is losing govt funds....
I agree. Essentially it is disrespect for the English language. In English St Peterburg is pronounced 'saint peters-burg' NOT 'saint peters-borg'. Likewise we say 'Japan", we don't say Nihon. This insistence not on pronouncing player names correctly but in using the accent of their home country as well (rolling rs as you put it) is a political statement. It is saying we are nothing but a multi-culture, we don't have a core Western culture at the heart of our society (or shouldn't). Therefore we have to distort our speech even to talk about football.
The entire SBS pre-game coverage was actually pathetic and very self serving. SBS panel full of croatians making it all about Croatia. Guess what, you were covering it for Australia and all Australians
TO CROATIA WITH MUCH LOVE!!! GREETINGS FROM DUBLIN IRELAND...
Thanks friend! Croatia also loves Ireland, your people and esp. amazing beers! Best wishes for New Year 2019.! Greetings from Zagreb, Croatia!
Love our Irish friends
Irish football fans the best

Watching Croatia against France in that game was some of the best attacking, ruthless and skillful football I've ever seen.
Trustfire yep
France didnt deserve to win

Croatia won the world...but France only cup...
moses ravoori truer words have never been spoken. Preach!
moses ravoori hahahahah the cup is what counts..
Not really they had a semi final worthy team going in and they got one of the easiest draws to the world cup...

Lucia kad god pozelis vidit Korculu samo se javi!!!! Svi te puno volimo!!!!!!
Lucy looks absolutely fabulous. Beautiful lady.

Croatia is a testament to succeeding despite tremendous adversity.
this croatian lady got me emotional..😌😌 am goin with Croatia today
Hard not to tear up with Lucija, know the feeling exactly. I think the diaspora have a romantic view of Croatia and we see passed the actual problems. We view the country and people with 110% love and pride.
Thanks for the awesome World Cup commentary this year.
proud to be Croat because of Lucy and Croatian football team:) and dear God who bless us from Heaven, Thank You!
THE Best player in France team Was Referee !
BEST comment !
Totally agree
and it was expensive
Lucy, you're wonderfully charming. Regards from Croatia.
There is as much Croats around the world as is in Croatia, if not more. We are one of the biggest immigrant countries in the world and just by sheer percentage of Croatians living outside of Croatia we can easily compare Croatia to Ireland and Italy in that respect.
Very true, I would say that their are more outside than inside, has to be 10 million in total or there abouts
Not realistic at all
I'm sorry but there is no way... 6-7 at MAX, depends how far in time you look and how many generations living outside you would count as Croatian
Yeah, due to being attacked by larger hordes throughout entire history
4.mil.+5-6 MIL.

Lucy Zelic best SBS tv host for the world cup. well done from Aus
fuck off! she's good at parroting what the ear piece says..
she doesn't seem to truly be knowledgeable about football.
she is CRO so got emotional here, naturally.
R.I.P Les Murray. He was SBS football.
7 million Croat in the world
I am still annoyed that Croatia didn't win the WC trophy. It was great to see us in the final but I wanted to fucking win. I wont be truly happy until we win the WC. Hrvatska can do it. We have so much quality it's ridiculous. Getting second place isn't good enough for me.
Love to Lucy from Scotland.
Bravo Luce 👍❤️🇭🇷
Oh Lucy, Lucy - if you ever need a shoulder to cry on ;)
Croatian women are the hottest in the world
Stephen Barbieri u haven't seen their neighbour,the Hungarians.
Been there, got shocked how beautiful they are.. almost every girl.
Petar Marjanović then u should try Hungary.
who is the first lady? so ?
@NoPain NoGain same here

Modrics grandpa was killed by Serbs while herding goats in the mountains where Luka used to help him, him and his family had to move to another city and live in a small hotel for years while little Luka played for the local club.
Australia might do it one day, they have plenty of Australian Croats playing for them now, in the past and am sure in the future
Croatia was war-torned in 1995 not in 2018 or 2020 lmfao. Yes some of these players expirienced war but only few of them the oldest ones such as Modric and Lovren but that is not definition of war-torn country that is maybe trauma on individual level lmfao.

I want to get emotional with Lucy
Great to see the best two teams make the final, but I feel Uruguay would have been there had Cavani stayed fit. Who let their nana don the ripped jeans?
that referee when he gave a penalty to france,he killed the game.
Also first goal was offside and there was not FREE kick
@@jakovcu OFFSIDE ?? that was Mandzukic who took the ball not a french player...
@@tehauaitamai3309 Still, Pogba was offside. He tackled Mandjukic and that is offside by rules.
@@jakovcu Tackled Mandzukic ??? LOLOLOLOL you may go watch another sport dude ..
@@tehauaitamai3309 problem is offside not tackle
From two pot shots and own goal and a penaltie. Compare the game I don't see why the French are excited, they did bad winning it.
If anything I walked away like Croats did for almost 1400 years of bad luck. One thing I can say we are now free.
Congrats to the Croats!
French killers of the croats! 😋
Lucy I love you!❤️❤️❤️
Hope Croatia wins just for Lucy, and if they win she should celebrate but buying Fos some new jeans
Andrew Herbert and a nudy run round red square
Croatia is the best!
Lucys a legend

Those jeans though...lol !
France, the first African nation to win a world cup
Aussie Roberts awesome to see you are so excited🖤🖤🖤
It pains you seeing black French players of Africa descent 😂😂😂
So if the Australian team win a game of football we do thank Europe or where ever they descented from. nice logic
So Larry David, what YOU are saying is that:
AFRICAN players are superior physically... BUT NOT MENTALLY?
ONLY with the ASSISTANCE of WHITE MAN can they utilize tactical superiority? Conversely, FRANCE with NO AFRICANS could be tactically superior until the cows come home, but they COULD ONLY WIN A WORLD CUP, once they called on THE ASSISTANCE OF AFRICANS?
Dead joke
emotional
At the finals day there where 1 billion croats .
Yes Craig Forster is right about France , we had our time of playing beautiful football in the 80 s but we got only 1 euros as reward so yes i agree its not pretty the way we play now but it is effective, we had to beat Argentina, Uruguay and a great Belgium team to win that cup, so not to forget our euro lost to Portugal we ended up learning how to win , no matter how!!!
Craig foster, the greatest dribbler in the world.
Budget must be tough at SBS Foz can't afford new jeans
Dear Craig Foster, its just a game.
Love the jeans Foz
good on ya Luce
Rakakakticcchhh
She said it perfectly
Can Craig stop interrupting Lucy...
Dan oz did you actually watch the video? Or any video of these two talking?
she was the first to interrupt, are you sexist?
he actually helped her get back on track, if he didn't say anything she would have burst into tears. He helped her keep her composure... read the situation mate...
TheFormActually chill mate
Craig dribbles more shit than anybody. The guy thinks he is a philosopher
if it wasnt for Australia she wouldnt even be sitting there where she is i wonder if he heart hurt for the Socceroo's these Croatians truly are fanatical too say the least.
I don't give a shit what anyone says but croatia played so much better than france! For fuck sake france was handed the first 2 goals they didn't earn them! Well done croatia this will go down in history im just a proud croation! Bog blagoslovi!
Certainties in life : death , taxes and Lucy Zelic breaking down on air
When you spent most of your nights staying awake, tears and crying comes to you very easily. Try it and see
Lucy and Ned got drunk and shagged offset.
They were so happy about Croatia in the final that they forgot who they were.
You don't need to include her surname in the title, after their brilliant coverage during this World Cup their just Lucy and Fozz to us all
i couldnt stop laughing at the end of the game when they started talking politics.. stick to the soccer guys and not your theories on how to make the world a better place
Regards from Croatia
King George world respect respected world wide ampire 💯🌹🤗
Craig , do you think torn jeans ,suit you ?
SBS how about Fozz being presentable on national tv not letting him do as he pleases poor look.
Griezmann's diving are a shame to football, i hope someday karma will hit him hard.
Mandzukic was 24 when he started playing in Germany. He did not grow up there.
She got me crying like a b**ch, I'll never forget this world cup, I never felt happier in my whole life so far (I'm 23)
Craig, a 19 year old girl called she wants her jeans back.
Double A i legit think he is wearing Lucys jeans
wow that female journalist is really beautiful
Africa won the world cup.
Osman s wonderful 🖤🖤🖤🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
So if the Australian team win a game of football we do thank Europe or where ever they descented from. nice logic
Shut the fuck up, almost every player in the French squad was born in France. Where was Arzani born?
Osman s - They are French you racist moron.

I agree. Essentially it is disrespect for the English language. In English St Peterburg is pronounced 'saint peters-burg' NOT 'saint peters-borg'. Likewise we say 'Japan", we don't say Nihon. This insistence not on pronouncing player names correctly but in using the accent of their home country as well (rolling rs as you put it) is a political statement. It is saying we are nothing but a multi-culture, we don't have a core Western culture at the heart of our society (or shouldn't). Therefore we have to distort our speech even to talk about football.
