4) Domagoj Vida’s misses prove to be costly
The Croatia defender might not have been the man that many expected to have the best chances for the team but the centre-back should have scored twice at least.
Being a defender, you should be able to power headers into the net but Vida missed the target completely on two occasions, both times Rui Patricio, the Portugal goalkeeper, was nowhere to be seen.
The 27-year-old centre-back was also responsible for losing Cristiano Ronaldo in the lead up to the goal for Portugal and he even had a late chance to atone for his misses with a hooked shot that went agonisingly wide for the Croatians.
