Canada net first ever World Cup goal but trail Croatia 1-2 at halftime

Alphonso Davies netted Canada's first ever goal at FIFA World Cup but Andrej Kramaric equalised for Croatia and Marko Livaja put them in front to make it 2-1 at halftime in their Group F game at the Khalifa International Stadium on Sunday.

Davies scored his historic goal for the Canadians with a bullet header from a Tajon Buchanan cross after just over a minute of play.

But the Canadians couldn’t hold on to their lead as Kramaric levelled in the 36th minute.

Livaja then gave Croatia a one goal lead just before the break.
