- 2' GOAL! Alphonso Davies scores on 2. Assisted by Tajon Buchanan
- 7' It looks surprising Croatia does not make any changes. Kamal Miller has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

- 36' Goal! Andrej Kramaric scores his 99 goal in 396 matches.

- 46' The supporters are chanting for Jonathan Osorio. He replaces Cyle Larin on 46 minute.

- 52' Canada receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 52.
- 56' The referee calls foul for Dejan Lovren. He receives a Yellow card.

- 70' Andrej Kramaric makes a hat-trick on 70.
- 72' Lucas Cavallini has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jonathan David on 72 minute.
- 77' It’s high time Zlatko Dalic made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 82' The travelling Canada supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 85' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Luka Modric.
