Croatia plays draw as Pepe cancel Croatia early lead for Portugal

Earlier today I posted about Germany playing a draw against France. The teams that performed less at the world cup are giving the victorious countries tough time at the friendlies and Uefa National League.

Cristiano Ronaldo was missing in action for the Portuguese national team as they play against Croatia that ended second at the 2018 FIFA world cup in Russia. The World Best player at the world cup and Uefa Best player featured for Croatia but the match ended in a 1-1 draw after 99 minutes of fantastic football.

The first half ended in a draw, likewise the second half. All goals were scored in the first half, Ivan Perisic opened the score line to put Croatia ahead in the 18th but Portugal player Pepe cancelled Perisic opener. Both side played well none of the two side was able to get the ball past the goal keeper.
