Croatia vs. Portugal: What happened in those final, chaotic minutes
TORONTO: (Jul 3) In the 109th minute of a wild, pulsating, nerve-shredding World Cup match for the ages, referee Espen Eskas finally called time.
Portugal advanced to the round of 16 after a 2-1 win against Croatia at Toronto Stadium on Thursday.
That doesn’t even begin to tell the story of the most dramatic of clashes that relentlessly swung back and forth and ended in the cruelest way for Croatia when Josko Gvardiol’s would-be game-saving equalizer 14 minutes into added time was ruled out for offside after video review.
