UEFA Futsal EURO 2012 in Croatia is now just a few weeks away with the big kick-off on 31 January – and two of the nation's highest-profile footballing figures cannot wait for the action to start.

Robert Jarni is the ambassador for the 12-team tournament in Split and Zagreb and represents an appropriate choice: having played 88 football internationals, he then earned two Croatia caps at futsal and testifies to the boom in the sport. Meanwhile, his fellow 1998 FIFA World Cup semi-finalist Davor Šuker helped to make the finals draw in September – yet is tipping holders Spain, rather than hosts Croatia, as he and Jarni give their thoughts on the tournament to UEFA.com.
