Portugal Advance to Last 16 with Dramatic Win Over Croatia

2 hours ago·1 min

Portugal are through to the last 16 of the FIFA World Cup 2026 after beating Croatia 2-1 in a chaotic second half in Toronto, setting up a blockbuster Iberian derby against Spain.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Goncalo Ramos were the heroes for Portugal, each finding the net in a second half that swung wildly before the final whistle confirmed Portugal's progression from the group stage.

The win sets up what promises to be one of the most anticipated ties of the round — a clash between Portugal and their Iberian neighbours Spain, two of European football's most decorated nations.
