Croatia manager miffed at Herdman for lack of post-game handshake

Canada coach John Herdman continues to burn bridges with the Croatia team at the World Cup.

Having already raised the ire of the Croatians after suggesting that his team would “go and eff— Croatia,” in their group match on Sunday, Herdman further alienated his counterpart at the end of the game.

“Whether I lose or win, I always see the other coach,” said Croatia team manager Zlatko Dalic. “He was not there. and that’s his his way of doing things. He’s obviously mad. He is a good coach, he is a quality professional. It will take some time for him to learn some things.”
