The national teams of Portugal and Croatia played a friendly match as part of their preparation for Euro 2024. The game took place at the "Nacional do Jamor" stadium in Oeiras, Portugal.
Croatia took an early lead. Luka Modric converted a penalty in the 8th minute, awarded for a foul by Vitinha in the hosts' penalty area. The "Checkered Ones" went into halftime with the lead.
The hosts equalized three minutes into the second half. Diogo Jota capitalized on a pass from Nelson Semedo.
However, Portugal's joy was short-lived as Ante Budimir put the visitors ahead once again. No more goals were scored in the match.
Notably, star forward Cristiano Ronaldo of Al Nassr and the Portugal national team spent the entire match on the bench.
Before the European Championship, Portugal has one more friendly match against Ireland. Croatia will play their next match in the European Championship.
