Watch: Modric unleashes sensational strike to put Croatia ahead
Scotland goalkeeper David Marshall may end Euro 2020 as the unfortunate victim of the top two contenders for goal of the tournament.
Just over a week after Patrik Schick's wonder strike from 50 yards out for the Czech Republic, Marshall was on the wrong end of another stunning goal Tuesday when Luka Modric beat the 36-year-old with a curling strike with the outside of his right boot.
Croatia's hopes of keeping its Euro 2020 campaign alive were boosted later in the game when Ivan Perisic made it 3-1.
