FULL-TIME 🇵🇦 0-1 🇭🇷 Croatia are up and running at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. After a cagey, hard-fought first half, the breakthrough finally arrived in the 54th minute when Ante Budimir found the back of the net. The experienced forward's goal proved to be the difference in a match where chances were few and defensive discipline was on full display. The victory moves Croatia up to third place in Group L with three points, keeping their hopes of reaching the knockout stages alive heading into the final round of matches. For Panama, however, the defeat confirms their elimination from the tournament after a spirited campaign that ultimately yielded no points from their opening two games. It wasn't a classic, but for Croatia it was a result that mattered most. Three points secured. Qualification hopes alive. 🇭🇷⚽ #FeverPitch is powered by: wrayrum justbetja flowjamaica sunshinesnacksja jnbanklimited #FIFAWorldCup #WorldCup2026 #JamaicaObserver #Panama #Croatia #ObserverSports #Alw...
