Croatia manager Zlatko Dalic has hit out at the officials in charge of the 2018 FIFA World Cup final following their decision to award France a controversial penalty in their eventual 4-2 win.
The referee initially decided not to award the spot-kick but overturned that call after consulting video replay, and in Dalic's view, it was a massive mistake. Per ESPN, he said:
"We played well but the penalty knocked the wind out of us and after that it was very difficult. I just want to say one sentence about that penalty: You don't give a penalty like that in a World Cup final.
