At the Lusail Stadium on Wednesday, Croatia was eliminated from the World
Cup after suffering a humiliating 0-3 defeat at Argentina’s hands in the
tournament’s semi-final match. However, the captain of Croatia, Luka
Modric, was not pleased with the officiating. He criticised the Italian
referee, Daniele Orsato, for awarding Argentina a penalty in the first half
of the match. In his post-match interview, Modric stated that the decision
to award a penalty kick significantly impacted the game’s outcome, although
he didn’t voice many complaints on the field. He was critical of the
referee, Orsato, and referred to him as “one of the worst” officials.
