The defender’s touch wasn’t deliberate and he had zero chance to control the ball. It doesn’t count to negate the offside. From IFAB Law 11-
*‘Deliberate play’ (excluding deliberate handball) is when a player has control of the ball with the possibility of:
passing the ball to a team-mate;
gaining possession of the ball; or
clearing the ball (e.g. by kicking or heading it)
The defender never had control of the ball.

Ball sensor or not. This World Cup is clearly rigged

The ball inadvertently deflecting off of him doesn't change the fact that he was off.
He’s saying the ball sensor somehow showed the whisker of a touch from the Croatia player but nothing from the much more significant Portuguese touch.
If Portugal was Paraguay I somehow don’t think the whisker touch gets called.

Well it is FIFA we're talking about ... not like they're squeaky clean but I doubt it's rigged now.

The ball registered both touches. As I laid out previously, the defender’s touch doesn’t meet the criteria to negate the offside.

Comes down to the ref’s judgement. The tech is a tool in his arsenal.
He got it right, unfortunately.

if it did not hit the Croat and only the back of Portugal, it does not reset the offsides?

Correct, as the attacking player was onside when the original cross was played.

If the sensor can pick up that slight of a touch (hair flick) then the ball hitting a freakin bug mid flight could do the same thing.
In other words - If the sensitivity is that high then noise artifact becomes a potential confounder.
If I’m Croatia - I’m doing a deep dive on the sensitivity of that sensor.

This. Doesn't mean VAR hasn't hurt this world cup though.

but nothing from the much more significant Portuguese touch.
This “hair swat” and the upper body being over the line being offsides seems to be a few overcorrections with the tech in the game.

Well you’ll have plenty of time to do that now…

I just rewatched that replay, it only showed one on what they showed.

I’ve watched it too, and I’m far from inexperienced regarding reffing soccer games.
Clear offsides.

Portugal survives 2-1
After coming back from down a goal to take the lead, Portugal holds on as a late equalizer by Croatia is waved off by VAR
Croatia heads home with a bitter taste in its mouth
Portugal will face Spain in the Round of 16 on July 6 in Arlington
