📋 It’s CR7 v Modric and more! See Portugal and Croatia line-ups The moment of truth has arrived for Portugal and Croatia, with a place in the FIFA World Cup round of 16 on the line.  The highly anticipated clash kicks off at 8pm (Brasília time). And it will be played at BMO Field, in Toronto. Norwegian referee Espen Eskas will be in charge. CazéTV will broadcast it.  Portugal 🇵🇹 A place in the round of 32 came after finishing second in Group K. The mission is to produce better football after underwhelming performances against DR Congo and Colombia.  There was an expectation that João Neves would return to the starting XI. And that was confirmed. The big news is Rafael Leão in attack.  Portugal were the team with the highest average possession in the group stage and the one that completed the most passes. But they had only 12 shots on target.  The lineup is:  Diogo Costa; João Cancelo, Rúben Dias, Renato Veiga, and Nuno Mendes; João Neves, Vitinha and Bruno Fernandes; Pedro Neto, Rafael Leão and Cristiano Ronaldo. Croatia 🇭🇷 After losing to England, the Croatian team beat Panama and Ghana to secure second place in Group L.  Zlatko Dalić kept Vlasic, Petar Sucic and Baturina in the starting XI.  Perisic is expected to play at left-back again. The lineup is:  Livakovic; Stanisic, Sutalo, Pongracic and Perisic; Kovacic, Vlasic, Petar Sucic and Modric; Baturina and Budimir. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
