Štimac, not mincing his words, said that the public sees everything. "The public cannot be deceived; it sees everything. However, the quality of Borac should not be diminished. They have a very good team, but that team was also assembled on the go. They had their turbulent periods as well, but it is obvious that they were favored," Štimac told Večernji. Evidently, he points out, everything was done to somehow distance Zrinjski from more serious ambitions by the end of the season. "We will conduct a detailed analysis at the end of the season. I closely follow and analyze every match, and it is visible that these objective reasons have greatly affected the team's confidence and everything that should accompany the atmosphere of championship matches. If there are objective circumstances preventing you from achieving significant results, confidence and mentality drop significantly," he adds. He also congratulated the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team on qualifying for the World Cup. "I am glad that our neighbors will be with us at the World Cup; I congratulate them through this medium. We should look at that positively, and in the end, such an Italy does not deserve to qualify for the World Cup," Štimac was clear.
