Croatia's WC journey ended dramatically with a 2-1 loss to Portugal, which saw a goal being disallowed during stoppage time when Josko Gvardiol appeared to have scored. The goal stood initially, but was turned down following a lengthy VAR review by referee Espen Eskas, citing an offside that became apparent through data present within the match ball itself.
