Boban was a member of the Croatian team
that finished third at the 1998 World Cup,
captaining the squad at that tournament,
as he had at the
1996 European Football Championship.
A mistake he made in the semi-final allowed France to equalize immediately after
Croatia had fought hard to earn a one-goal lead.
To make matters worse,
Boban was injured
and wanted to come off at half time
but stayed on until the 65th minute,
when he was replaced by Silvio Maric
instead of Robert Prosinecki the goal scorer.
France won the match 2–1 and eventually won the tournament.
Croatia went on to defeat the Netherlands,
with Boban providing the pass to Davor Šuker to score the winner,
allowing Croatia to attain third place
and receive the bronze medal.

Religion was a guiding force throughout old man
Rockefeller’s life,
and he was a devout Northern Baptist.
He believed God to be the source of his success.
As he said,
“God gave me money“, and he did not apologize for it.
He felt at ease and righteous following
John Wesley’s dictum,
“gain all you can, save all you can, and give all you can“.
From his very first paycheck, Rockefeller tithed ten percent of his earnings to his church.
He believed in The Law of Tenfold Return,i.e.if he gave happily, joyfully and confidently
then for every dime
he gave away he would receive a dollar, happy, joyfully
and confidently, in return from providence.
As his wealth multiplied he gave generously to
Spelman College ,Denison University, University of Chicago,
Rockefeller University,Yale, Harvard, Columbia, Brown, Bryn Mawr, Wellesley and Vassar.
Education
and Medical research were the philanthropic causes closest to Rockefeller’s heart.
