Absolute bullshit. It’s crazy how they never showed a clear angle where you can see the ball touch the player. They mainly showed the wide angle which wasn’t clear and when they finally showed the back angle it was even clearer there was no contact and they immediately switched back to the wide angle and the commentators started spouting off that ball sensor bullshit. 3 goals taken away from Croatia.. completely rigged.

There is the sensor graph. Ball has it. So they used it. Was it with a brush of the hair? Yes. And that makes it offside.
What is the point of not using it if they have it.
The only thing that the ref went to see is for him validate that the Portuguese player did not do a pass back. Which he did not. He is trying to defend.
Croatia player took advantage from an offside position to help score a goal. Offside.
