2026 FIFA World CupBackground
Goncalo Ramos headed a stoppage-time winner as Portugal beat Croatia 2-1 in Toronto, sending Luka Modric's side out of the tournament and Portugal into the last 16, where they meet Spain.
The Paris Saint-Germain forward has specialised in decisive World Cup cameos since a stunning hat-trick as a substitute against Switzerland at the 2022 finals, when he displaced an out-of-favour Cristiano Ronaldo in the starting XI. At 25, he now shares a Portugal forward line with the 41-year-old Ronaldo, WHO set a record for scoring at six separate World Cups last month, rather than replacing him outright.
Portugal's run continued to lean on the pairing of a fading Ronaldo, playing what he said was his final World Cup, and the younger forwards, Ramos foremost, expected to carry the side beyond his retirement. Transfermarkt added roughly €20m to his valuation in its 23 July POST-tournament reassessment, grouped with Argentina's Julian Alvarez and England's Morgan Rogers among the risers.
