Croatian 8 years old soccer player - Nikola Vlasic
Slaven Bilić: Nikola Vlašić je čudo
Nikola Vlašić, devetogodišnji brat naše atletske zvijezde Blanke, velika je nogometna nada. Mladi talent zaintrigirao je i našeg izbornika Slavena Bilića.
- Mali Nikola je čudo. Vidio sam ga uživo i oduševio me. Igrao je jedanput protiv mojeg sina. Njegova je momčad pobijedila 7-1. Zapravo, Nikola je sam pobijedio, zabio je puno golova - ispričao je Bilić.
Time je dobio još jedan dokaz za tezu koju često ponavlja.
- U Hrvatskoj je talenata uvijek bilo i bit će. Mi smo, jednostavno, takva nacija - kaže izbornik i tvrdi da se ne moramo brinuti za nogometnu budućnost.

Blanka Vlasic - World Champion
VIDEOS: Blanka Vlasic - All About
Sve o Blanki Vlašić
When she knew she had won, Blanka Vlasic decided there was still a treat or two in store for the crowd. She would attempt to break the High Jump world record, but first cam a little dance from the first World champion from Croatia.
She stood by the side of the mat and she jigged one way, and then the other. The spectators celebrated – and she waved and danced away more.
“I wanted to win this gold medal so much,” said Vlasic, 23, from Split. “Now I am in a state of shock.”
The unleashing of these emotions after she had been the only athlete to clear 2.05m brought confirmation of what the sport knew about her.
In 2002, in Santiago, Chile, and two years later in Kingston, Jamaica, Vlasic won gold at the IAAF World Junior Championships, one of the best bases for success as a senior.
It put her third on the all-time list behind Kostandinova and her fellow Bulgarian Lyudmila Andonova and if she does break the World record, we now know what to expect.
“In every competition, I actually have a different dance," she said. "It gives positive energy to people in the crowd. You need to spice it up.”

BLANKA VLASIC - Jump over 207 cm

All about Blanka Vlasic
Vlasic’s rise continues
When local hero Kajsa Bergqvist and Russian Champion Anna Chicherova went out at 2.01 Vlašić had a clean sheet with five spotless leaps. She continued with 2.03 at her second attempt which already guaranteed a one-carat diamond before she attacked her own Croatian record of 2.06 with the bar raised to 2.07. The second effort was close and the third successful. Only World record holder Stefka Kostadinova has jumped higher outdoors.
