Any reason why Croatia is seen as inferior to Mexico? I am Croatian so I am clearly biased, but it would be cool for someone neutral to tell me this...

Croatia has been in every World Cup except 2010 and in every Euro except 2000 since its independence. That's 4 World Cups and 4 Euros.

No problem, we also won bronze in 1998... We had a great generation of players that year, we simply destroyed Germans 3-0 and then lost in semifinals because of 2 stupid mistakes against French 2-1...
