(Source: AP)Croatia sacked coach Ante Cacic and named Zlatko Dalic as his replacement on Saturday ahead of their crunch World Cup Group I qualifier in Ukraine, the Balkan nation’s Football Association (HNS) president Davor Suker said. “Dalic is the new coach and will be in charge for the last game away to Ukraine,” Suker told a news conference in the Croatian capital. Pressure mounted on Cacic halfway through the campaign as Croatia suffered 1-0 defeats in Iceland and Turkey before the draw with Finland allowed Iceland to leap above them.
