Croats in New Zealand react to the World Cup

From Afternoons, 1:17 pm on 12 July 2018

The Croatian Cultural Society hall in Te Atatu filled up pretty quickly early this morning with first and second generation Croats convinced their team had what it took to hold off England in the Football World Cup semi-final.

And it turned out they were right!

Len Stulich is president of the society, and tell us what the atmosphere was like.
