Mario Pasalic - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Minimal impact going forward Pasalic had one shot (zero on goal) in Wednesday's 4-2 defeat to England. He also added a blocked shot and a tackle.

Impact Pasalic didn't do much on either side of the ball, but that responds to a scenario in which the Croatian midfield looked overmatched against their England counterparts. It remains to be seen if Pasalic will remain in the XI for the game against Panama on Tuesday, particularly since Croatia could revert to a 4-2-3-1 approach that could leave Mateo Kovacic and Luka Modric as the holding duo.
