Highlights

With five minutes left on the clock, Croatia scored the game's only goal in Saint-Denis, Ibrahima Konaté being penalized for a foul on Ante Budimir. Despite getting a firm hand to Luka Modri's spot kick, Mike Maignan was unable to keep it out.

That handed the visitors a lead they held for the rest of the first half, with Christopher Nkunku's drive the closest France came to regaining control before the break.

After the interval, the openings continued to be few and far between, with Croatia gaining confidence as France failed to create any meaningful issues. Indeed, with Maignan denying substitute Lovro Majer in the closing 20 minutes, their first ever triumph over Les Bleus could have been even bigger.
