Makes four clearances in loss
Sutalo recorded two tackles (two won), four clearances and two interceptions in Thursday's 2-1 loss to Portugal.
Analysis: Sutalo co-led Croatia in clearances during the match, but it wasn't enough to avoid the two goals conceded and the elimination. The centerback also made the most interceptions for his side. He started in their four games in the World Cup and played all 360 minutes in the campaign.
Produces six clearances
Sutalo generated two tackles (one won), six clearances and one interception in Saturday's 2-1 win against Ghana.
Analysis: Sutalo made his presence felt on Saturday, producing six important clearances while completing 11 passes into the final third and posting a strong 94 percent pass accuracy. Defensively, he has conceded three goals across Croatia's three group‑stage matches, but his individual output has been steady, recording16 clearances, three tackles, 12 duels won, and one blocked shot, along with a clean sheet earlier in the round. After already facing a difficult opponent in England, he now prepares for an even tougher challenge in the Round of 32, with Portugal set to provide his hartest test of the tournament so far.
