When Eric Cantona walked back into the Manchester United dressing room at Selhurst Park, everyone knew what was coming.

He had just been sent off against Crystal Palace.

Then on the way down the touchline, he had launched himself into the crowd and kicked a supporter.

So the United players were sat there waiting for Alex Ferguson.

And once he arrived, there was no gentle opening.

Ferguson came in with his jacket off, sleeves rolled up, and everything in the middle of the dressing room started going.

Cups of tea.

Sandwiches.

Shirts and balls waiting to be signed.

All of it.

“We’re getting scalded and getting egg sandwiches down the back of our necks.”

The players all looked at each other thinking the same thing.

Cantona was finished.

Only Ferguson did not start with Cantona.

He went for Gary Pallister.

Then Paul Ince.

Then Sharpe.

“F****** Pallister, you can’t head anything, you can’t tackle.”

“Incey, where the f*** have you been?”

“Sharpey, my grandmother runs f****** faster than you.”

By this point, Cantona was still sitting there waiting for his turn.

Everyone else was getting destroyed for the performance, the marking, the defending, everything.

“You’re all a f****** disgrace.”

“Nine o’clock tomorrow morning, I’m going to run your f****** nuts off.”

Finally, Ferguson got to Cantona.

The whole dressing room was waiting for the explosion.

And then his voice changed.

“And Eric.”

“You can’t go round doing things like that son.”

🎙️ Darijo Srna on whether a deep Croatia run would be a surprise:

"Why would it be a surprise? Everyone should respect Croatia and be afraid of us. We have shown that over the last ten years. I repeat, if we get out of the group stage, anything is possible." [Flashscore]

🎙️ Ivan Perišić on Luka Modrić:

"He is the best kind of captain. Not only is he an inspiration, but also a friend. He is the definition of elegance, talent, and focus.

His discipline and calmness inspire me greatly, as do his quiet confidence and incredible perseverance.

He performs at the highest level, and it is always an honour and a pleasure to play alongside him." [Men's Health España]

Hey Paris, this is how real celebration of athletic achievement looks.

Croat tennis player Goran Ivanišević welcomed in his hometown in Split after winning Wimbledon in 2001.

More than half of the city's population attended.

No incidents, just pure love from the people. 🇭🇷❤️

Sretan Dan državnosti!

[Ante Šušnjar @susnjar_a]

Svaka država počinje odlukom.
Naša je donesena 30. svibnja 1990. godine, u trenutku kada je volja bila snažnija od straha.
Iza te odluke stajali su branitelji koji su je platili vlastitim životima. Branili su pravo da Hrvatska postoji. To se nosi u srcu svakog Hrvata.
Ono što je taj naraštaj izgradio žrtvom i vjerom u ovu zemlju, naša je obveza čuvati i graditi dalje.
Domovinu se voli djelima.
Sretan Dan državnosti. 🇭🇷
