Euro 96 and World Cup 98 - the two best football tournaments I've ever witnessed. Miss the time when football was more love and less commercial

[@sugs1191]

Euro 2000 was the best. Euro 04 had it's moments too

You have to admire the goal.

[@saturncho]

Absolutely OFFSIDE. Great goal though, and Croatia was winning anyway

[@vg4100]

In Scmiechels defense, he was sprinting back the whole length of the pitch and had little time to set him self up. But yeah, a great goal and fast thinking from Šuker. Greetings from Croatia.

[@davidlogan8905]

That was a great Croatia team, and Suker was certainly one of the best. But I gotta say, as a kid growing up and during the time of this tournament I was just amazed by Robert Prosinecki. I still think he's the moist talented Croatian player I've ever seen.

i still have his Real Madrid kit from the 1996/1997 season i was the coolest kid in town when i played with that outfit. one of my favorite players together with Raul and Seedorf. I saw a ton of people play for my Ac Milan but i still wish Raul played for us

[@dannyrasmussen4988]

I don't know if this is true, but I guess every time Suker faced Schmeichel in a football match, Suker scored a goal. Great goal.

[@dcvbhtrdf]

In that group Croatia beat Denmark 3-0, Portugal beat Croatia 3-0 and Denmark beat Turkey 3-0. Quite a rare sequence.

and turkey won against who 3:0 ? lol

[@dzigerica666]

croatia lost 3-0 because it was 3rd game, 6 points, so coach replaced almost whole team. i didn't even watch that game can you imagine how disapointed i was when they said 2nd team will play?

And epic OFFSIDE

[@iganpparamarta8813]

saturncho unfortunately yes it was way offside maybe 3-5 yards. I didn’t watch the game but from KZbin clip it seems that no Danish players were protesting. Same like Mijatovic’s goal vs Juventus in 1998

[@iganpparamarta8813]

@@michaelstark8720 I can’t find any past rules stating the Gk position as you explained. As long as he’s inside his own half that’s all that counts. Rule is clear even after 1990’s amendment, to stay onside an attacker must be at least level with second to last defenders on the moment the ball is touched/passed by the attacker’s teammate. When Asanovic sends the long pass (the moment his feet touches the ball), Suker is between a Danish DF and GK. GK inside/outside the box doesn’t matter. You seem very persistent about this. I hope you can give us link to the past rules (90s rules). This is not an attack I’m just really curious.

[@marcusbiller867]

@@iganpparamarta8813 clear offside. VAR would've disallowed it. Has its benefits and negatives I guess. With VAR we wouldn't be talking about this goal.

[@euan1234]

at the moment the pass is made, the two defenders are on the second dark stripe of grass from the halfway line. Suker is nearly on the third, so clearly 2-3 yards offside. linesman wasn't in a good position, so missed it.
