A Croatian model and football enthusiast, Ivana Knoll, shared a brief video on her Instagram Stories, highlighting her active social media presence. The clip features the model wearing a low-cut top, a look that has become part of her distinctive online persona.
Knoll drew global attention during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where she became known for outfits that reflected the national team’s colors. Her public appearances ranged from stadium visits to moments in city settings, including a swimsuit appearance in one of Qatar’s cities. The attention she generated extended beyond fashion, shaping conversations about fan culture and the role of media visibility in major sporting events.
In the months that followed, Knoll herself acknowledged receiving numerous marriage proposals and a stream of personal messages from some of the World Cup figures who attended Qatar, underscoring the personal dimension that can accompany high-profile public visibility.
Turning to the football competition results, the Croatian national team faced a challenging start at the 2024 European Championship, losing their opening match 0-3 to Spain. In the second fixture, Zlatko Dalic’s squad earned a 2-2 draw against Albania. The final group-stage match produced a 1-1 draw with Italy, leaving Croatia in a position that prevented advancement to the knockout rounds. The team did take the lead at times but conceded a late goal that affected the overall outcome.
Earlier in her public appearances, Knoll’s profile also drew attention when she appeared in a short top during an event connected to the Russian national team, a moment that sparked discussion about media coverage of athletes and the fashion choices public figures make in sports-related contexts.
