The Russia 2018 World Cup final has Croatia’s President Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic as one of its biggest fans.
Grabar-Kitarovic was mostly spotted cheering Croatia on in her national jersey, next to FIFA president Gianni Infantino.
Grabar-Kitarovic was born on April 29, 1968 in Rijeka in the Croatian part of Yugoslavia.
The Croatian president, 50, signed up to a student exchange programme while at school, spending a year at Los Alamos High School in New Mexico.

She later studied in Zagreb, Vienna, Washington DC and Havard, before completing her doctoral studies in her home country three years ago.
Grabar-Kitarovic is fluent in Croatian, English, Spanish and Portuguese, while she has some understanding of German, French and Italian.
Noticed for her curvaceous figure, some fans have mistaken her for model Coco Austin and US porn star Diamond Foxxx.
Grabar-Kitarovic became the fourth Preisdent of Croatia in February 2015, the first woman to do so.
