Nikola Vlašić
Nets game winner
Vlasic scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Ghana.
Analysis: Vlasic secured second place in Group L with a crucial 83rd‑minute goal in Croatia's 2-1 win over Ghana. It came in his first World Cup start, having made only one prior appearance in the tournament. The impact of that moment, combined with his overall output, two shots, 35 touches, and an 88 percent pass accuracy across 100 minutes, strengthens his case for a larger role moving forward. His showing demonstrated clear attacking intent and reliability on the ball, giving Croatia another viable option as the knockout rounds begin.
Creates two chances against Juventus
Vlasic registered two shots (zero on goal), one tackle (zero won) and two chances created in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Juventus.
Analysis: Vlasic put up his usual numbers in the season finale, registering at least one shot and one key pass in the final five rounds, racking up six (one on target) and nine, respectively. Instead, he snapped a three-game streak with one cross. He had his most productive Serie A season to date, scoring eight goals, dishing out three assists and registering 49 shots (17 on target), 54 chances created and 48 crosses (11 accurate) in 37 matches.
Scores from spot
Vlasic scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and two chances created in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Inter Milan.
Analysis: Vlasic sealed the comeback from two nil with a penalty for his second straight goal and eighth of the campaign, his best scoring season since arriving in Serie A in 2022. He also created two chances for the third time in his last four games, though this was his first shot in three games despite back to back fixtures against relegation zone sides.
