Joško Gvardiol scored past Ricardo Costa in the 13th minute of stoppage time, but technology stood in the way of the equalizer.

The assist came from Mario Pašalić, who was ruled offside only because his teammate Igor Matanović had made minimal contact with his head just before that.

 

“According to the data provided by Connected Ball Technology housed within the @adidasfootball Trionda, the official match ball of the @FIFAWorldCup, it was proven that contact was made by Croatia's #20 Igor Matanović in the build up to the goal against Portugal, allowing the referee to correctly determine offside and disallow the goal”, the FIFA statement said.

Viewers were immediately able to see the “impulses” indicating Matanović’s contact with the ball.

"IMU sensors housed within the Trionda ball are capable of determining any slight contact, displayed to viewers in the broadcast as a 'heartbeat graphic', and allowing officials an unprecedented level of data to make fast, accurate decisions".

Portugal will face Spain in the Round of 16.
