The host was caught off guard when Geza David Turi capitalized on a break in midfield, sending a driven, low shot that deflected past Croatia's goalkeeper at the near post, providing the Faroe Islands with a surprising early lead and temporarily shifting the atmosphere at Stadion Rujevica, reports Xinhua.
Croatia, however, responded with maturity and precision. Seven minutes after the opener, defender Josko Gvardiol capitalized on a loose rebound, shifting the ball to his stronger foot before expertly drilling a composed left-footed shot into the corner, restoring parity.
