match commentary
- ▸ Croatia were fearless, combative and clinical when it matters as they ran out deserved winners.

- ▸ Early change for GHA on 45' — Kojo Peprah Oppong came on (for Jonas Adjetey); possibly an enforced knock.
- ▸ Early change for GHA on 45' — Abdul Fatawu came on (for Elisha Owusu); possibly an enforced knock.
