The second half was a tense affair, with both teams pushing for a winner. Ronaldo had a great chance to put Portugal back in front, but his header was saved by Dominik Livakovic.
With just minutes remaining, Ronaldo made history by scoring his 900th career goal. The Portugal captain latched onto a loose ball and fired a low shot into the bottom corner.
The goal sparked wild celebrations from Ronaldo and his teammates, but it was not enough to secure victory for Portugal. Croatia held on for a deserved draw, leaving Portugal with just one point from their opening two Nations League games.
Despite the draw, Ronaldo's 900th goal was a moment to savor. The 37-year-old is now just 10 goals away from becoming the all-time leading international goalscorer.
