Why offside rules denied goals for Portugal, Croatia in World Cup
Portugal and Croatia each had goals called off because of offside rules on Thursday night in Toronto in the Round of 32.
The game could've had a lot more goals, as it turns out — including a potential tying goal right at the death that was called off for Croatia.
It was scoreless in the first half, but the ball kept finding the back of the net in the second half.
These were all the relatively simple offside variety: When the ball is played, an attacker cannot be past the last defender.

Why was Croatia’s 103rd-minute equalizer against Portugal ruled out?
Croatia were seconds away from exiting the World Cup at the round of 32 stage when Josko Gvardiol tapped home to equalize in the 103rd minute against Portugal.
What seemed like a lifeline to keep Luka Modric’s final run on the sport’s biggest stage of all was rescinded in a matter of moments. Mario Pasalic was judged to have been in an offside position before finding the Manchester City defender.
It was 2-1, then 2-2, and then 2-1. All in a few cruel minutes for Croatia. Gonçalo Ramos’ late header after a first knockout goal for Cristiano Ronaldo was enough to seal the comeback victory in the tournament’s most dramatic game yet.
