Nikola Kalinic Rejects World Cup Runners-Up Medal by reportminds: 6:15pm On Jul 20, 2018
Rebellious Croatian striker Nikola Kalinic has rejected a World Cup runners-up medal gifted him by his team-mates and coaching staff.

Kalinic did not play a minute at the 2018 Fifa World Cup in Russia.

Croatia head coach Zlatko Dalic had sent him home after the country’s opening game against Nigeria after he refused to come on as a substitute in their 2-0 win, citing fitness issues.

“Thanks for the medal, but I did not play in Russia,” Kalinic told Sportske Novosti

Kalinic has attitude issues. Even if he still felt unfit after the medical team had declared him fit, he should have obeyed the coach, gone into the field and proven that he is actually unfit.

He knew he did not work for it, hence he rejected it.
David Cameron resigned when the vote for UK to remain or leave the EU was against his favour.
Why is it that in Nigeria, people don't have a bit of shame.
Your certificate has been certified as being forged. Instead of doing yourself and the country honor by resigning. You still stay glued to the position as if it is your father's property.
The height of shamelessness is even those defending their oppressors, sophisticated crooks and criminals on social media just for peanuts. Y'all should learn a lesson and honor up!

I like his pride. It's like adding salt to injury. He said it right.."I didnt play in Russia 2018." If Fifa gave him then fine.
