BAIn a World Cup quarter-final match between Croatia and Portugal held in Toronto, Croatia's Joško Gvardiol scored a goal in the 90+13th minute that initially seemed to level the score at 2:2. However, the goal was later disallowed due to an offside infringement. The decision was based on data collected by the 'Connected Ball' technology embedded in the official match ball, Adidas Trionda. According to FIFA, the sensors detected a micro-contact made by Croatian player Igor Matanović during the buildup to the goal, which triggered the offside call. This technological evidence confirmed the referee's decision, leading to Croatia's elimination from the tournament. The incident highlights the role of advanced sports technology in ensuring fair officiating decisions.
