Canada lost to Croatia 1-4 in FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 game at Khalifa International Stadium on Sunday. If you think the scoreline to be humiliating, you probably have not had a chance to see the viral naked photo of Canada national football team coach John Herdman put on a Croatian newspaper. For the unversed, this was done before the match. But why? Why on earth would a Croatian tabloid publish a full-page naked image taunt? It is because John Herdman, ahead of Croatia vs Canada fixture, was quoted saying, “I told them they belong here. And we’re going to go and eff Croatia,” during an on-field interview. Herdman had used a single 'F' to avoid profanity but looks like the damage was done as it did not go down well with the Croatian national team and their supporters back home.

Croatian tabloids seem quite unforgiving towards Herdman, putting him on the cover despite Dalić's claim that 'Croatia will speak on the pitch'.
