📝 2026 World Cup, overnight recap
Every morning, OneFootball brings you a full recap of the night's action at the World Cup.
Did the craziest moment of this World Cup happen last night, during the round of 16 clash between Portugal and Croatia?
As the game entered the 90+13th minute and Portugal were leading 2-1, Joško Gvardiol thought he had equalized. Problem was, after a VAR review, the goal was ruled out for an offside position by the passer, Mario Pašalić.
And yet, when Ivan Perišić sent in his long cross from the left, Pašalić did not appear to be offside. But the new sensors placed inside every ball since the start of the World Cup revealed that the ball had been brushed by the very tip of his teammate Igor Matanović's hair, putting Pašalić offside.
A "technological" offside that saved Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates...
Finally scoring in the knockout stage of a World Cup, Cristiano Ronaldo sparked Portugal's comeback against Croatia; before Gonçalo Ramos finished the job, Gonçalo Ramos-style, in stoppage time.
The two Portuguese scorers are among our MVPs of the night, along with Breel Embolo, the Swiss Rennes striker, who found the net against Algeria!
Already with six goals and having scored in every game since the start of the World Cup, will Lionel Messi keep his exceptional run going? Answer at midnight!
