Yuri Cortez was caught by surprise when he ended up in the middle of Croatia's celebration in the World Cup semi-finals
Photographer Yuri Cortez says he was left with the best pictures he’s taken of the 2018 World Cup after the “unexpected” moment of ending up in the middle of Croatia’s celebrations in their semi-final victory over England.
Cortez was assigned the second semi-final for Agence France-Presse and was treated to a special moment in extra-time after Mario Mandzukic delivered an 109th minute finish to put Croatia up 2-1 in the contest and on the path to the World Cup final.
