Susret o kojem Guardian već piše kao o najgoroj utakmici na jednom velikom natjecanju, s obzirom na to da je već ušla u povijest kao utakmica bez udaraca u okvir gola u 90 minuta, izazvao je i salve duhovitih kritika po društvenim mrežama.

Should bring back the golden goal just for this match.

Nogometni novinar ESPN-a Miguel Delaney tako je na Twitteru napisao da bi samo zbog utakmice Hrvatska - Portugal trebalo uvesti pravilo zlatnog gola, a s teško gledljivom utakmicom našalio i novinar Chris Jones, koji također prati Euro.

I'd vote to leave Europe, too, if this is what the football always looked like.

Jedan od komentatora je napisao: 'Ako postoji ijedna utakmica s čijim bi se prekidom mogli izvući hrvatski navijači...' a u nastavku donosimo izbor tvitova o jučerašnjoj utakmici.

If there was one game the Croatian fans could get away with stopping
