Brozović to skip Ukraine, Mandžukić a doubt

Due to a calf injury, Marcelo Brozović was forced off the pitch during the Finland encounter in Rijeka (1:1) and has to miss the Monday qualifier against Ukraine in Kiev.

Mario Mandžukić will travel to Kiev with his teammates, despite the injury sustained during the Finland match. His practice sessions will be individual, and the Croatia national team medical staff will try to complete his recovery process before the Kiev kick-off.
